Sagund Ready To Rock

Apr 27 2008 By Gordon Brown

WE all like to be beside the seaside - even more so if a nice priced winner helps to pay for the candy floss and rock.

Abit of "previous" at Brighton's tricky track is important and SAGUNT (4.25) won cosily here over a mile two seasons ago.

I get the impression he has been laid out for an each-way touch with Willie Carson's grandson William taking a handy 7lb off.

And trainer Sean Curran knows all about the winner's enclosure as he's fresh from saddling Iris De Balme to a memorable victory in the Scottish Grand National.

BIENHEUREUX (3.50) would have picked this lot up and carried them at his peak and I'mrisking a few quid on him in the 12 furlong handicap.

He still has plenty of dash and ran well when just out of the money on Great Leighs' inaugural card.

Over the jumps at Ludlow improving top weight KEW JUMPER (3.40)must go close again following wins over slightly further at Ascot and Lingfield.

The new 2008-09 jumps campaign also kicks in up at Wetherby where HARRY FLASHMAN (4.0) can pinch some prize money for Hawick raider Donald Whillans.
