The ground today on grass looks testing at Hexham and Warwick, I would imagine it will be pretty much the same at Chepstow.  At Hexham in the 2.00,  Kileaty Briggs is the only ride of the day for Adrian Heskin.  He should oblige with a win, having just been chinned on his last run, I would be surprised if he gets turned over at short odds.  A really decent Novice Chase  at Warwick 2.10, Mister Fisher will likely start as favourite, trained by Nicky Henderson, he has really strong form over hurdles, he will be well schooled for his first try over fences.   Torpllo who receives a handy allowance for being only four, could well make use of that, and would be my idea of the one to watch closely, it is not strictly between these two, as Lisp who is headstrong, may well run well, he has also shown useful form over hurdles as well.

I was a little bit surprised to see the change of management at Spurs over the last 24 hours.  Jose Mourinho has been appointed as new head coach, with the termination of Mauricio Pochettino’s contract.  The big question, is will Jose be able to turn around the poor start for the club.  Football managers change all the time, the rumour mill did think Pochettino was a candidate to take over when Mourinho was sacked at Manchester United, and here we see now he has lost his job, I don’t think the Argentine manager will be waiting too long, he will be offered plenty of good jobs in football over the next few months.  I thought he was doing a good job at Spurs, but obviously more was expected, from the Tottenham board.
