Race Tip

G2 Cheltenham Festival winner GOLDEN ACE (7) returned to the new season with a fourth tackling the 2m3f G2 Ascot Hurdle during November. Improvement expected. Top chance. LUCKY PLACE (1) recorded an excellent fourth behind the reopposing Langer Dan in a 2m5f premier handicap hurdle at The Festival here. Found success in the aforementioned G2 Ascot Hurdle. Smart type. SALVER (3) climbed the grades rapidly last season and showed himself as a strong performer when third attempting the 2m1f G1 Triumph Hurdle here. Decent fourth on return at Newbury. Every chance. Two-time Cheltenham Festival LANGER DAN (2) holds claims.
