We will be hard pushed to see an easier winner of a Class 1 or 2 Handicap Chase than ROMAIN DE SENAM at Chepstow yesterday.
That was simply an exquisite round of jumping from the 5yo and Sam Twiston-Davies is unlikely to have smoother rides than that all season.
The 4-1/7-2 available on Saturday
evening was an absolute gift from the bookies and he was hammered down all day to an SP of 7/4, even that looking generous given the manner of his victory.
And hopefully a few of you were on the Nicholls horse?
He was highlighted in my 'Five well-handicapped horses' post last month on the free NTF Blog and justified that
inclusion in stunning style on his seasonal debut.
His win was also a great example of why I spend so many hours compiling my own race/horse notes, notes that full NTF members receive each and every Monday in the form of the 'Weekend Notes' section of the NTF service.
