WEATHER permitting there is some cracking racing at Warwick this afternoon including the rescheduled Veterans Chase Final which we recently lost to the elements at Sandown Park.

More of the “old boys and girls” later, but first up the feature race of the day, the Classic Handicap Chase at 3.00, where some old favourites will be slogging through the mud over the extended 3m5 trip.

If the weather forecast is right, the ground will have dried up to around good to soft, but it is sure to be clawing and those set of fences down the far side are a real test even for these seasoned campaigners.
