MAN'S A DIA-MOND

IN THE Howden Handicap Chase run over two miles and three furlongs at Ascot, bottom weight THE FAMOUS FIVE (1.50) makes plenty of appeal.

Venetia Williams' horses are running into form, as she proved when sending out a winner at Plumpton on Monday, and this beast ran a cracker last time when second at Newbury last month off a perch of 120.

Nudged up 3lb to a mark of 123, he remains a well-treated animal.

The last time we sighted SALADINS SON (2.05) he finished second at Haydock Park a month ago off a ledge of 122, so it's no surprise that Anthony Honeyball sends his horse back to the Lancashire venue to contest the Betfred Tommy Whittle Handicap Chase over three and a quarter miles.

The mudlark races off the same rating and he will be cherry-ripe for this.
