The progressive Songkran and Bayston Hill were both due to run in the same race at Chepstow yesterday with the former preferred if lining-up. But FORESEE beat a subsequent winner when finding only one too good over 1m4f at Doncaster last time and Tony Carroll’s charge should go close again. Singing The Blues was still well beaten when third at Chepstow but Hammy End went close at the same track, albeit in a lower grade than this, and is preferred to Charlie Arthur and Nabhan.
