Snug looks a good fit for Sedgefield
Back Major Snugfit @ 5.59/2 in the 13:00 at Sedgefield
It's a relatively open betting race for the 13:00 at Sedgefield but a 9/2 price on Major Snugfit appeals as he ran well enough over CD last time on good ground to give him a chance here.
It's a low grade and he's only rated 92 but he is consistent at least and ran with credit in third in a 0-105 last time over jumps.
He is quirky and is best when dominating - something I like at Sedgefield. Plus he won at Hexham earlier in the season, and that form travels well to this track.
His trainer Rebecca Menzies has had 17 winners here in the last five seasons and conditional Peter Coleman takes off some weight with his 8lb claim.
Cawthorne can make the favourite work
Back Cawthorne @ 3.55/2 in the 15:20 at Sedgefield
It might be folly to take on a Don McCain favourite in the shape of Master Malachy at 11/10 for the 15:20 2m1f Handicap Chase, but the training combination of Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero have done well in the last month with 3-14 and Cawthorne is a progressive horse.
He bolted up at Market Rasen in the summer over hurdles on good ground by 12L and was back over fences last time at Sedgefield - only going down by a short distance to Martin Todhunter's First Revolution. A late mistake cost him, but he highlighted his well being and seems to enjoy a good surface.
Strong in the market too this morning, expect him to receive a hold up ride as he likes to be played late. The race has cut up with two defectors leaving just four, but he can make a race of this with Master Malachy likely to lead with his 2-2 record over fences on the line.
