Another hugely exciting prospect for paul and team ditcheat 👏 👏 👏
Dominant! Wordfromhome could be a horse to follow for the @PFNicholls team, showing a good change of gear to put the race to bed on debut... @NewburyRacing | @samtwiston

Absolutely love this horse 😍😍 a proper one. So pleased for everyone at team ditcheat 👏 👏
Emphatic victory! New Rules blows away the well fancied Red Acres Max to score nicely for @PFNicholls & @samtwiston. This race was won last year by the smart Grade 2 winner Kingston Queen. Could he be of the same quality?

And finally 1.47 once again were keeping the faith with the same 2 selections from the prix beaurepaire. Le garde contre is first selection ahead of bigood has the each way bet. Best of luck to everyone having a bet at Chepstow and auteuil tomorrow 🇫🇷

Next 12.27 were keeping the faith with pascard de beausse. Back over hurdles tomorrow this doesn't look a great race on paper. I expect him to get back to winning ways tomorrow
366
Next 11.52 callisto du nord is the selection. Put up a lovely chasing debut at auteuil recently, jumped brilliant and with a clear round can remain unbeaten over fences.
322
11.17 back in a flash is the selection. Another walk in the park for coolmore hopefully a nice recruit. I think he will best nelson du seuil tomorrow.

Great racing tomorrow at Chepstow as well as another great card at auteuil. Hugely excited to see new rules make his hurdling debut for paul tomorrow as well as order on time. However its auteuil where I have 4 selections and they will follow shortly 🇫🇷
