Snipe
Record of 2-4 since switched to hunter chases in January and he ran well to finish six of 24 in the Foxhunters' at Aintree (2m5f) last month; on career-high mark back in a handicap but he hasn't been far off his best this year and he has won over 3m1f in the past; respected.

From the connections
“I've been riding in point-to-points all season and last year, and I was desperate for a winner. I didn't know if I'd get it on this lad, but I wasn't giving up. I was glad we had one more fence to jump, because every time Snipe was jumping, he was getting closer. He's flown the last and galloped on nicely to the line - Dominic Lewis, rider, speaking to Sky Sports Racing.”
“Snipe is going the right way and could be one for marathon distances in the spring - Dan Skelton, trainer.”
