Muskerry Rock and Smugglers Haven contest a strong opening CopyBet Bog Now For York Tomorrow Handicap Chase at Worcester.
The Skelton team saddle Muskerry Rock who doubled his tally over fences when easily seeing off Balkardy at Newton Abbot and he remains of interest off this five-pound higher mark.
Smugglers Haven has been in fine form over hurdles this summer and Sara Bradstock’s charge makes appeal as he heads back over fences with his confidence restored after a fall back in December.
The Jonjo & A J O’Neill-trained Yes Day is an each-way player, while Harrys Hope is another worth further inspection.
