SAINT SEGAL (2.30, nb) is a Christmas blessing for punters in the Ladbrokes Desert Orchid Handicap Chase at Kempton.

Jane Williams' seven-year-old was progressive last season and has continued on an upward curve in three runs this term, turning in a career-best five-length win at Kelso last time.

He's up another 7lb but is only heading in one direction and at 4-1 is worth chancing to gain revenge on rapid improver Thistle Ask, who beat him in the Haldon Gold Cup.
