Hard to stop a Flying Angel in the rain
THE LADBROKES Handicap Chase is the feature race this afternoon, but the smallest field this century will go to post with just the 13 runners declared.
With further rain forecast at the Berkshire track, stamina will surely be at a premium and that should suit FLYING ANGEL (NAP) who looks massive value at around the 25/1 marker.
The Nigel Twiston-Davies runners seems to relish plenty of dig in the ground and he looks to be coming to the boil, judged on his staying on second behind Mr Medic at Ascot over 2m5f.
