2022 Sir Peter O'Sullevan Memorial Tips
So why is Kapcorpse betting favourite to win the Sir Peter O'Sullevan Memorial Handicap Chase? The nine-year-old hasn’t been seen at a racecourse since running at Newbury Racecourse back in February, with jockey Harry Cobden pulling up the runner on that occasion although the horse had previously won this race in 2021.
On that occasion, the horse travelled strongly and was able to oblige at 13/2, with Paul Nicholls now looking for a repeat training performance. However, a long lay-off means we should tread carefully and there could be more value backing Mister Coffey who was last seen competing in the Topham Handicap Chase at Aintree.
Previously to this, there had been three consecutive second-placed finishes and Killer Kane is also likely to be a warm order, with this being the namesake of the England football captain although whether the Joe Tizzard-trained runner can oblige after a midfield performance at Exeter earlier in the month is open to question.
Demachine looks to be a talented six-year-old and he was last seen claiming a victory at Uttoxeter, with the Kerry Lee-trained runner obliging as the 7/2 favourite and could be the best each-way prospect here. There was also a fifth-placed finish in the Ladbrokes Trophy Chase on 27 November at Newbury Racecourse last year.
