Today’s tip comes from Leicester where a smart jumper returns to fences for the first time since completing a double in October. CHAPEL FLOWERS won two chases in October, the first by a distance of 32 lengths and the second by 11 lengths. His trainer sent him into a hurdle contest last month where he finished 3rd, having led until 3 out before he hit the hurdle and then weakened. He has a claimer who takes 3lbs off a perhaps prohibitive hike of 18lbs but the style in which he won his last two chases suggests that he will be a very strong force to stop today.
