13:40 Southwell – Cill Mochaellog – 1pt @ 3/1

There was a definite drop in the level of Cill Mochaellog when he ran at Lingfield last time but I’m not sure that’s his ideal track and John Egan didn’t exactly cover himself in glory either.

I’m happy to overlook the run altogether and as long as it’s not a case that he has simply gone out of form, which the run could well suggest, he should hold strong claims based on his previous couple of starts. They included a second at Chelmsford and then a one-length third over this C&D.

Robert Havlin taking over in the saddle might help and it’s easy to have doubts about the capability of the opposition. The horse needs to bounce back but I think this is the right race for him to do so.
