These charity events are difficult to fathom but CHAPTER SEVEN gets a tentative vote after an encouraging reappearance over a trip too short at Naas earlier this month. His basic Flat speed may prove to much for the jumpers Investmentsuccess, though he managed to win a bumper, the useful chaser Daisy's Gift, a Grade 2 winner at Limerick last month, and Tisamystery, who won over fences on good ground in the autumn. Mandamus was racing off 98 on the level at this time a year ago so should find this to his liking.
