It can pay to stick with SARAHS GIFT who can complete the hat-trick at the main expense of Fred Bojangals and Storm Prospect. There was plenty to like about the way the selection recorded his second win on the bounce at Newton Abbott when he appeared to score with plenty in hand. On the evidence of that he is still one step ahead of the handicapper and we think that he can score again. Fred Bojangals and Storm Prospect are closely matched on their run at Sedgefield last month when Fred Bojangals narrowly prevailed. This longer trip will suit Storm Prospect and we are confident that he can reverse the form. Toulouse Express and Dead Mans Dante have both won over this course and distance and they could represent some each-way value, while It's A Roofer finished third behind Fred Bojangals and Storm Prospect last time when his jumping was far from fluent. If he can get his act together over the fences then he could be a major player, but they all have it on to beat Sarahs Gift who can continue his hot streak.
