16:05 - Kelso - Back Lissen To The Lady
Finally Boardman came good for the column yesterday, winning at a BSP of 7.00, but Greystoke, who was backed into 2/1 favourite ran poorly on the Roodeye.
It's jumping all the way today, and Sandy Forster's Lissen To The Lady makes the list as she loves Kelso and a three-time winner here.
She ran in a fairly warm 0-115 race last time, and she's in calmer waters this afternoon - much calmer.
Her most recent victories have come at Hexham over 3m, and Hexham form travels well for me. While they came on heavy ground, she has acted on good and can make an impact here from a lowly mark.
She has drifted too this morning - from 9/2 to 13/2 to boost our double price.
On with Sunday's second pick, and not many runners to play with across the three jumps cards (summer and the Flat season anyone?), so each-way angles are non-existent.
With the likely quick conditions, I'll go with Call Of The Loon at Fontwell today despite the grand age of 12.
He finished second at Plumpton last time over a similar sort of trip - his third run since joining Christian Williams.
The dab hand with staying chasers has improved this veteran, and he might be able to chisel out a couple of more wins despite his advancing years. He scooted home at Stratford last summer, and he'll have his conditions today.
