17:00 Termonator

Several have possibilities but the vote goes to course winner TERMONATOR, who has had three close calls in his last five starts including a strong-finishing second over 1m2f here last time. Scots Sonnet won a classified event at this track last month and he’s feared most on his step back in trip, though Autonomy was a major improver last spring and needs a close look in the market on his comeback. Others who could have a big part to play are Amourie and Paddy Elliott.

17:30 Eydon

Oceania Legend justified support in good style here on his recent debut and he’s respected under a penalty, while the well-bred newcomers Jonny Boxer and Sunset And Vine need checking in the market. However, it is hard to get away from Roger Varian’s EYDON, who sets a good standard on his eyecatching third over C&D in December and has plenty of scope for progress on his second start.

18:00 Yaahobby

Vespasian is unexposed and still has some potential, while True Jem and Definitive Force should be happier back in calmer waters today. YAAHOBBY won quite nicely at Wolverhampton on his stable debut 18 days ago and he may be able to follow up on this handicap debut.

18:30 Odd Socks Havana

Preference is for ODD SOCKS HAVANA, who has gone close on Tapeta in both his starts for a new yard this winter and things didn’t really go his way behind a rival who got first run last time. Lady Ziana finished just ahead of the selection at Wolverhampton 22 days ago and she’s respected, along with Strategic Fortune, who travelled well for a long way when third at Kempton on his latest outing. Another to consider is Rose Of Lancashire, who picked up a silver medal in a 1m2f classified event here last month.

19:00 Knockabout Queen

Penombre and Jems Bond are considered in a modest event but last-time-out winners Won Love and KNOCKABOUT QUEEN (nap) look the most solid contenders. The latter won a similar event in decisive fashion eight days ago and can follow up.

19:30 Sam’s Call

Good Earth, Tathmeen and Annie Rose all have something to recommend them but SAM’S CALL might be the answer. He shaped quite nicely here on Tuesday after a break and the return of the visor looks a positive.
