"A warmish favourite for the opener here given that is it a novice handicap chase, but Noble Park was undeniably impressive when galloping 24 lengths clear of his field in a similar contest at Lingfield last time. The handicapper has reacted with an 11lb hike in the weights, however, and given that he is currently priced up at around 7-4, that's more than enough to make me feel as though a decent each-way alternative may be lurking further down the list."
"U Cant Be Serious, the narrow winner of his two starts over fences thus far, is certainly a candidate, but personally I'll be chancing my arm with James Owen's Secret Des Dieux, who was staying on well at the end of his last start over two miles and looks certain to improve for this step up to an intermediate trip. SELECTION: SECRET DES DIEUX"
Noble Park is the warmish favourite for the Ladbrokes Novice Handicap Chase at Kempton after a dominant 24-length Lingfield victory, but the handicapper has imposed an 11lb rise. Current market prices place Noble Park around 7/4 with several each-way alternatives available. U Cant Be Serious has won narrowly in both starts over fences and represents a solid candidate. Secret Des Dieux is selected as an each-way option, expected to improve stepping up to an intermediate trip after staying on well over two miles. Market movers include Queensbury Boy, Klub De Reve and George's Boy. Jockeys were reported uninjured after an earlier Fontwell incident.
