Taking On A Shortie In The Seller

We don’t see too many sellers these days but I have always looked at them as opportunities, and this one fits the bill.

The bottom line is they are largely populated by out of form or poor horses who cannot be guaranteed to give their best, and this is no exception.

On official ratings this is all about Casa Loupi, who comes out a massive 16lb clear of Bigz Belief at these weights, but he was last seen finishing a 63 lenth last of nine at Windsor and although he wins if he gets back to his best, that cannot be guaranteed.

Better value may be found with the Twiston-Davies trained Borna Gem, who is making her hurdling bow after finishing second in a Fontwell bumper, but she did win a point-to-point at Tinahely last year and clearly has an engine.

She gets 12lb from the likely favourite before amateur jockey Amber Jackson-Fennell claims her 7lb from the saddle, and if there is going to be an upset, she could be the one to cause it.
