Ist March 2016.15:50 Leicester Lockstockandbarrel may be a good thing as  the betting suggests but the race may not be  so clear cut as it seems at first glance.  Abracadabra Sivola is having his 1st race  for  David Pipe since leaving Nick Williams . His  2nd place in a Class 2 Exeter Novice  Chase over 3 miles is at least equal to the  favourites Class 3 Novice Chase win.  With 4 entries this week and one at the  Cheltenham Festival suggests to me he is  ready to go. The 6lbs he receives from the  O'Neill horse is a bonus and could swing things in his favour. The price of  4/1 looks  good value for the highest rated horse in  the race.
