With exciting cards in store at Kempton and Chepstow Tony Paley has all the latest action at the helm of our rolling blog. At the latter, Haiti Couleurs strives to get his season back on track. Winner of the National Hunt Chase at the Cheltenham festival and the Irish Grand National at Fairyhouse in the spring, the eight-year-old made a successful return to action over hurdles at Newbury to tee himself up for last month’s Betfair Chase at Haydock.
