There should be plenty more to come from Chepstow maiden winner YOUNG BUTLER now that he moves up in trip in what should be a truly-run race. The 5-y-o gets the nod ahead of the Gary Moore-trained duo Next Left and Imphal, with the former feared more despite jockey bookings suggesting that he is the second-string. Pass Me By also has claims, along with Go Steady and So Said I.
