Paul Kealy reckons well-treated chaser is primed to bounce back

No. 3
Marracudja
2.10 Wetherby
1pt win at 4-1 generallyFirst Flow and Nuts Well are the two progressive ones, but they take a big chunk out of the market and they are giving lots of weight to Marracudja, who has now become very well handicapped.

His third in last year's Clarence House Chase at Ascot was wildly overrated by the handicapper who put him up to a mark of 154, but in fairness he has dropped him reasonably quickly.

His encouraging third to course specialist Zanza at Newbury last time resulted in a further drop of 2lb and he is now down to just 137, a mark off which he can certainly be competitive.
