It can pay to rely on Raka

WITH the likes of Billyvoddan already on the mark, Henry Daly appears to have a strong hand of novice chasers and can introduce another at Fontwell today in Rakalackey.

A half-brother to connections’ Cheltenham Festival winner Young Spartacus, the seven-year-old was always destined to go chasing, but has proved a decent type over hurdles already.

After picking up two novice wins in his first three outings over timber, he went on to run well in a Grade Two race at Aintree before finishing a good third behind The Dark Lord at Cheltenham on his only start last term.
