Good Evening folks
Two more for Boxing Day, nothing further. Back late afternoon for Friday’s action.

GENERAL EN CHEF – 1/2 Pt EW @ 55/1 Paddy Power Power up 4 places, 50/1 4 places generally
A very open contest but this horse travelled like a dream last time so I have to chance this smooth traveller at the huge odds, boosted by what the trainer states:
Quote
Noel George, joint-trainer: “I think he’s going to run a massive race. I’ve never had him as good as he is. In his first run over British fences he was fourth in the Coral Gold Cup when he probably got there a little bit too soon.”
3:45 Wincanton
DOUBLE DRAGON – 1/2 Pt EW @ 12/1 Bet365 4 places, 11/1 4 places generally
This 4 year old displayed a good turn of foot on the run-in to beat a dual subsequent winner in a Ffos Las maiden in May. There were also lots of subsequent winners in behind so it looks good form. He would have hated the soft ground when a respectable fourth over C&D on last month’s handicap debut back from a break so with the drying ground in his favour should go well.
