1:25 Warwick Tips

Chuggy won easily over two and a half miles here last time when two of his rivals did not make it over the first fence. He passed his main rival four out when the leader made a mistake. This is more difficult and he has gone up fifteen pounds for winning both his chases this season, but he could still make the hat-trick.

Chuggy has been hit with a further rise of nine pounds for his Warwick win last time. He'll be tough to beat. His price is short enough. At 3 points bigger than I envisaged when I priced this race up, RODNEY looks value to upset the favourite. He looked a different animal at the back end of last season, winning twice. Arguably he should have won on his reappearance at Bangor, where he was travelling on the bridle throughout and had the race in safe keeping, pulling clear from 2 out without being asked a question. The race was on the bag prior to a heavy fall at the last. If none the worse for that, he's impossible to keep out of the frame. Liam takes over from Conor this time.

Delivered a masterclass in running and jumping at Plumpton last time out back in April, when nineteen lengths clear of the field. Has gone off favourite in the last five races, so presenting great value this time. Didn't do too badly returning from the last two breaks.
