Le Coudray’s class should see him through this test

A TRICKY weekend so attempting to hit the front early might not be a bad idea and, accordingly, Le Coudray is napped to land the opening EBF Beginners ’Chase at Naas this afternoon.

He returned from a near three years absence at Cork less than two weeks ago and was the medium of some decent wagers.

Making his debut over fences, Le Coudray’s jumping was sound, but he guessed at the penultimate obstacle and paid the ultimate penalty, leaving the challenging Just In Debt in for an easy success.
