Brown Advisory Novices' Chase Betting Tip
Number of Runners: 6
Favourite: Fact to File - 4/5
Willie Mullins is responsible for another short-priced favourite with Fact To File dominating the Brown Advisory market. However, this is no walk in the park as he embarks over a new distance with his stamina to prove.
There is no guarantee he will stay and a war of attrition makes horses like Stay Away Fay and MONTY’S STAR of interest. While Stay Away Fay has achieved more, preference is for Monty’s Star, who might prove to be the classier operator. The stage is set for a big run.
