Verdict
Now I'm A Believer just held on to win at Chepstow and beat the re-opposing TODAY POWER by a short-head. But the latter was making his handicap debut and, with further progress on the cards, Richard Hannon’s charge can reverse running on more favourable terms. Chateau Peapod also posted an improved effort at Chelmsford on her handicap bow while Grace Plunkett was placed over 7f here a week ago when a length in front of the less-exposed Dandy Dancer.
