David Probert Easter Monday rides blog: 'We will be hoping she can bounce back'

Easter Monday (April 21) sees David Probert with four rides at Kempton, all of which the Coral ambassador previews in his latest exclusive blog with us.

He has had two starts in bumpers and has been progressing well. Robert Eddery has him in good form, but he does need to give weight to the three-year-olds in the field. Once he gets a handicap mark, things should start getting easier for him.

This filly has arrived at Michael Attwater’s yard from Charlie Fellow’s stable. She has dropped down the handicap recently, as her form has not been great. She has won off this mark before, so we will be hoping she can bounce back.

He only had the one start last year at Salisbury where he won nicely for Clive Cox. He looks like he has grown over the winter. We have been handed a nice draw in stall one in this contest. I’ll keep things straightforward on him and he looks to have a great chance of doubling his tally.

This horse won nicely over this 2m distance at Kempton last month. He has gone up 4lb for that victory, but if he can reproduce something similar over the same C&D, I think he could follow up.
