"Famous Bridge looks a staying chaser that is going places and he is expected to take a 6 lb rise in the weights in his stride..."

Haydock Nap - 13:30 - Back Famous Bridge
Famous Bridge progressed well over fences last season and he shaped well on his return over an inadequote two and a half miles at Ayr.
He had clearly come on a fair bit for the run when winning with more in hand than the official margin suggests in a handicap over course and distance last month from the reopposing Credo.

Haydock Next Best - 14:05 - Back Bois Guillbert
Bois Guillbert won two of his three starts over hurdles last season and he picked up from where he left off when making a winning return and handicap debut at Kelso in October.
He did so despite still looking rough around the edges and he ran creditably up in grade at Cheltenham last time and that form is working out well.
Bois Guillbert should have even more to offer back in a handicap from a 5 lb higher mark and has a leading chance.
