A couple of chasers appeal today. Not big prices, by any means, but here are two that I've noted:
Samazul - 1.25 Fontwell 2/1 Win
One of a few chasers that have made an impression on me, winning last time out. He jumped well, I thought, and put in a notable performance which augers well. a course winner, too: not to be underestimated; it's a tricky chase course.
Etalon - 2.25 Exeter 7/2 Win
He was a favourite of mine last season and won three chases before disappointing (I thought) at Aintree. Chasers often improve second season so I'm not likely to be deserting him in this Haldon handicap, a race I've liked over the years. He's attractively weighted, I think, and goes in 'most grounds', according to his trainer.
As I say, not big prices but I'll be happy if one or both win as we see the jump season hit full stride.
