Be warned, Alan King runs two in the Play Pick 6 At BetVictor Handicap Hurdle (16:05) at Newbury on Friday. You wouldn't want to rule either out, with Who Dares Wins looking to have each-way potential, but for me it's Coeur De Lion to win.
It's slightly strange that he's gone up just 1lb for his close second to The Brimming Water in the valuable Betfair Hurdle, over C&D, at the big February meeting.
He gets his chance to back that up with a win here, he acts on soft ground and I think he is a very worthy favourite on the back of that run and can go one better.
So, it's Coeur De Lion for a lion-hearted success at Newbury on Friday (16:05).
