Verdict

GATS AND CO was a game winner of a hunters chase at Chepstow having already won twice at that track in handicaps earlier and can continue winning ways. Kim Bailey has been patient with The Bull Mccabe and he won well at Cheltenham despite idling close home while Angus Cheleda’s 5lb claim could come in handy aboard Ruthless Article and this race is against much weaker opposition than that which he faced when last at the track.
