14:35 Polisud

This looks best left to POLISUD, who accounted for an-form horse here recently and could still be well handicapped given the best of his French form. With conditions a concern for Into The Sunset, it’s Celestial Fashion who is feared most.

15:05 Beneficially Yours

An absence of 100 days needs defying but BENEFICIALLY YOURS will have every chance if repeating the form of his Carlisle third. In a weak maiden the dangers are Give Me A Boom and Raceview Road, respected in that order.

15:35 Hello Judge

Ann Hamilton’s HELLO JUDGE narrowly missed out on his final run and seems to be raising his game. Busty Boy has a good record fresh so he’s second choice ahead of Ritson.

16:05 Joker De Mai (NAP)

A good handicap that will take some winning. Rich Spirit (second choice), Booster Bob and Inox Allen should run well but JOKER DE MAI (NAP) bumped into a well-handicapped Kempton specialist there last time and he is Harry Derham’s only runner on the card.

16:35 Has Troke

Most of these come with some risks attached. HAS TROKE didn’t look entirely in love with blinkers (cheekpieces now return) when third at Lingfield but the two horses ahead of him there have since run well. Le Grand Vert earns second preference after beating all bar an in-form opponent last time, while Euchan Falls and Breakdance Kid also enter the reckoning.

17:05 Rivers Corner

Questions were left unanswered in the voided race over 2m4f here three weeks ago, but it looked likely that Glory Hights was about to notch his first hurdles win, with Scalloway Bay staying on and Askmore beating a retreat. However, the long-distance traveller RIVERS CORNER offers the solution to this finale. Syd Hosie’s runner boasts rock-solid form lines and can negotiate a further 10lb rise to complete the hat-trick.
