All over Premiumaccess 22/1 E/W for the Southern National @ Fontwell on Sunday.
Joe Tizzard is in really good form, so that's the first positive. Secondly I think he's been crying out for a longer trip like this. He had a pipe opener at the track 25 days back where he plugged on under pressure to finish 2nd of 4, and although well beat did stay on well up the stiff Fontwell finish. The extra 2f here will suit, IMO. Thirdly, he's got a more than useful enough 5lb claimer on his back, so that will aid him somewhat, too. Fourthly, his chase form at the course from two runs is 3-2 so it's not as if he has a dislike for the track.
I think he's just a really solid bet, in a race you need a horse you know will be staying on at the end, and he is one of them.
