24/11/18 3:15 Ascot - System

1st San Benedeto 10/1 - 70
2nd Valdez 14/1 - 60
2nd Modus 5/1 - 60
3rd Cyrname 7/2 - 50
3rd Ozzie The Oscar 7/1 - 50

San Benedeto was beaten 7L by Ozzie The Oscar last time out at Exeter in a Grade 2. He has been dropped 3lb and Ozzie The Oscar is up 3lb, so a nice 6lb swing for San Benedeto, but is it enough? San Benedeto's stats here are 2, 1, 4, 4 , One of theose 4th's was this race last year, he is 5lb lower today but last year Bryony had a 5lb claim. He was only 2L away in 4th though. He scores well as his trainer is in form, he wont mind the going, and Bryony Frost gets on well with him. Could be ew value.

Paul Nicholls is throwing 3 at this race, but he has sent 10 runners here in the last few years, and only managed 2 winners. But he has 3 good chances. Cyrname is favourite and deservedly so, he came 3rd on seasonal reappearance to Mister Whitaker who went on to be 3rd in the Bet Victor Gold Cup at Cheltenham last week. He had every chance at the last but lacked the fitness. Should have claims today.

Valdez and Ozzie The Oscar both will love the ground and also have claims here. Its a tough race, but i am inclined to stick with my System, although i do think Cyrname will be hard to beat

My Selection: San Benedeto 10/1
