Sam Twiston-Davies' in-form run looks set to continue with GOOD RISK AT ALL in the Finrock 2021 'National Hunt' Maiden Hurdle (12.30) at Chepstow.
The exciting prospect for the jumps game is trained by Sam Thomas, who has also started the new season brightly.
A former Cheltenham Gold Cup-winning jockey, he has a number of interesting young horses for the campaign – and the selection is towards the top of the pecking order.
Thomas, who has sent out two winners from his last five runners, saw the chestnut win Listed bumpers at Cheltenham and Newbury
The form of those runs has been boosted already by the second-placed horses, who have come out and posted impressive performances over hurdles.
There is lots to like about the son of No Risk At All, a sire with top performers like Allaho and Epatante on his record.
In the Enava Mares' Handicap Hurdle (2.00), MISTY BLOOM is almost back to her last winning mark.
However she has run some decent races off higher ratings and arrives here on the back of a run which should put her spot on.
She has a second to her name at Towcester, so Chepstow should suit in a race where expected favourite Coquelicot is not the most straightforward – and wears first-time blinkers.
BRAVE KINGDOM earns the vote in the Holt JCB Maiden Hurdle (3.00).
Racing in the colours of Kate and Andrew Brooks, his bumper triumph is backed up by the clock and he is fancied to strike at the first time of asking this autumn.
