Chapter and Verse 2nd at Nottingham

Chapter and Verse carried on the yard's sequence of 2nd itus with a battling 2nd at Leicester on Bank Holiday Monday. He jumped well and with there being no strong gallop he went forward again as he had done on his previous,winning, visit. However, he always had competition for the lead and he was going a fraction quicker than the last time he raced over course and distance. However, he looked the winner with half a furlong to go (evidenced by him trading at 1/25 on Betfair according to the RP) but having done a lot of the donkey work he faded in the last 50yards and was beaten by Jacobs Son.
This was another fine effort by our veteran grey and providing he is fit and well we will look for similar opportunities for him.
