13:40 – Sophosc

Alioski was second here in September and ought to play another significant role but multiple Flat winner SOPHOSC has been in good form on the AW for a while now and will be hard to beat here if he takes to hurdling. Blood Eagle is considered each-way.

14:15 – Royal Ruby

Salamanca School looked in excellent nick when dominating from the front over C&D three weeks ago and a 7lb rise for that doesn’t seem excessive but ROYAL RUBY is still unexposed over fences, and the form of last summer’s Stratford third off today’s mark reads well. Mystical Clouds lost his position at a crucial stage at Kempton last month but he still looks well handicapped after his win two starts ago.

14:50 – Danzini

The Tin Miner ran a game race and went very close off today’s mark over C&D three weeks ago but low-mileage mare DANZINI has made a solid start to her handicap career and could have significant untapped potential over this sort of trip. My Woody has been off since last spring but his new stable tends to do very well with new recruits, so he’ll be feared if strong in the betting.

15:25 – Tamaroc Du Mathan

The feature race can go to TAMAROC DU MATHAN (nap), who is very well handicapped if judged on last year’s Grade 2 novice chase win and ran well in defeat in a Newbury Grade 3 in March. Nothing went right for him in last month’s Topham at Aintree, so that run can easily be overlooked. Resurgent 10yo Slate House bids to complete a hat-trick and is second choice, ahead of Mahler’s Promise.

16:00 – Thibault

Sainte Doctor travelled strongly before asserting over C&D three weeks ago and is not taken on with any confidence but today’s race looks more competitive and THIBAULT is also in very good form. Adam West’s 9yo was eased down when scoring on the Flat recently and remains well handicapped on some of last year’s hurdling form. Richard Newland’s recruit from France, Hypnotik, is also of interest.

16:30 – Kolisi

This is quite competitive for the grade but there is no strong temptation to oppose KOLISI, who is 3-3 in handicap hurdles and, if his useful Flat form is a guide, could still have significant further improvement to come in this sphere. Sambezi got his career back on track with a good effort at Huntingdon last month and is next on the list, ahead of Sami Bear, Systemic and Shalott.

17:00 – Wick Green

Uallrightharry has a good chance if today’s headgear switch helps him to bounce back quickly from his disappointing effort three weeks ago but the suggestion is WICK GREEN, who faded out of contention only on the run-in at Exeter last month and is now 4lb lower then when winning in the autumn. Blame The Game finished well for a narrow hurdle win here last and now reverts to chasing on a 9lb lower mark but his record over fences is pretty awful and it’s very hard to gauge the extent to which he’ll warm to the task.

17:30 – Red Windsor

Winning Irish pointer El Muchacho could prove a class apart on his British debut for a yard with a good strike-rate at this level but RED WINDSOR looked promising himself when he gave best only late on here in December and the return to a sound surface looks sure to suit. Newcomer Times Are Blue is worth a market check but his pedigree suggests longer trips will be in order.
