3:19 Chepstow Tips

Reinado runs again quickly before being reassessed, having won a conditional jockeys' handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter by 25 lengths off 93 and is due to go up eight pounds. Should follow up.

Mumbles is well handicapped on his hurdles form from last year. After a spell chasing and a 242-day layoff, he returned over hurdles 24 days ago, ran as if in need of the run and will be fitter this today. The trip and ground are right for him, and he's a course winner. He has the favorite to beat in this, but is the value call.

Trainer Thomas Faulkner is profitable to follow on all runners. Nobody Told Me had a couple of spins on the all weather last month and makes first hurdles start of the season. Has shown a little ability in this sphere and was second on penultimate AW start. Low mark of 85 puts this gelding (5yo by Intello out of Dubawi mare) at the bottom of this handicap and Charlie Deutsch is booked to ride.

Estate Planning has not won yet but in Feb was third in a C3 novice hurdle on soft and followed up in a C4 on handicap debut back in March off a 103 with a decent third. While a distant C4 sixth on the return last month, he has now dropped to a 98 and also drops to C5, which does put him a bit heavy amongst today's runners. He also has a handy 5 lbs claimer in the saddle and could do well with ground to suit if getting to the post EW 4P.

Midnight View was pulled up quickly after he was badly hampered but also fading 3 out at Warwick in his first handicap hurdle off 102. He is dropped two pounds but also gets a first-time tongue tie and may be good enough for a place behind Reinado.
