Chepstow tips for Sunday: Coo Star Sivola the Persian War punt

That represents strong form in the context of this contest and Prussian Eagle is able to race in it off 4lb lower.

It makes the selection weighted to run a huge race on the pick of his form and Prussian Eagle is now with a yard that loves nothing more than to have a winner at this venue.

Willims has a strike rate of just under 20 per cent at the Welsh track in the past 12 months and backing all his runners would have produced a terrific profit of £38.78 to a £1 level stake.

Splash Of Ginge each-way value

Former Queen Mother Champion Chase hero Sire De Grugy returns to action in the 2m 2f handicap chase (16.00) but faces now easy task under top weight and Splash Ginge looks a lively outsider and decent each-way value.

The eight-year-old, who hails from the in-form yard of Nigel Twiston-Davies, enjoyed his finest hour when landing a valuable class 1 contest at Cheltenham in January 2015 off a mark of 145.

Splash Of Ginge got put up to 153 for that success and the extra weight proved to much for him and resulted his form tailing-off.

However, the John Neild owned gelding now returns to action off a reduced rating of 140 which is a career-low over fences.

It gives Splash Of Ginge major claims from a handicapping perspective in this class 2 contest, especially as he has just 10st to carry and receives weight from all bar one of his rivals.
