Wednesday banker: On The Road can put punters on right path

On The Road
1.35 Chepstow

Hugely progressive over both hurdles and fences during the 2016-17 season, and resumed with a most encouraging second to Sykes at Ffos Las last month.

The winner of that race has run well in Cheltenham defeat since off a 9lb higher mark, while the fourth Midnight Silver scored at Southwell.

With Mitch Bastyan taking off a valuable 5lb, On The Road carries only 10st 6lb on ground he handles, and ought to make a bold bid.
