Pepper’s Gold Cup chance not to be sneezed at

DAVID O’Meara is hoping Pepper Lane can maintain her fine form this season with a big run in the William Hill Ayr Gold Cup today.

The four-year-old has exceeded all expectations this term, wining four of her six starts and rising in the ratings from 74 to a current mark of 103.

Her win in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last month was a career best and her trainer has his fingers crossed she can put in a similar performance.
