What did you make of the 888Sport Handicap Chase won by Walt?

Tom Lacey It was a fantastic result for the owner of Walt, Phil Simmonds, who endured terrible luck when losing Burns Cross in a freak accident. Walt looked like the winner a long way out and the horses in behind give the form a strong look.

David Bass It was a good performance from Walt to beat a solid horse in Double Shuffle. Looking through his form, it was interesting to see he was beaten a few times in the summer off lower marks, so Neil Mulholland has found a lot of improvement in him and I would imagine he might be able to find some more.

Jamie Codd It looked a poor renewal to be perfectly honest. The winner is progressive and got a good ride, but it might not have taken much winning. Double Shuffle seems to save his best for Kempton, that’s for sure.
