Welsh National Ante Post Selections

With a number of the main contender expected to make a reappearance this weekend it may be worth your while to consder some Welsh National Ante Post Selections. Fork Lightning would be an interesting runner should he turn out for the 3m handicap at Cheltenham on Friday (1.20). The talented grey, was last seen on the track when dishing out a 2 length beating to Shardam at last years Festival, and he looks an ideal candidate for one of the big staying handicaps this season. His trainer, Alan King, is going great guns right now, and it wouldn’t be a massive surprise to see him go well on his reappearance, but this is surely a warm-up for the Welsh National at the end of this month (December 27th). He gets a bet365 20/1 quote for that race, and that has to be worth a few quid now, along with a more sizeable bet on the current 7/1 favourite, One Knight, who’ll be making his seasonal debut in the race.).

The race is run at Chepstow which attracts a large number of coursespecialists due to its gradients and frequently testing ground and few horses have a better record than the selection. He has won all four starts at the track and even more significantly he has won first time out in every season that he’s raced. He was also 5/1 favourite for last year’s Welsh National, only to be pulled out on the eve of the race due to injury, and can race off an11lb lower mark this time. No wonder his trainer is making bullish remarks about his chances, and we should take the hint.
