13:25 – Pragnell

PRAGNELL produced a promising first effort under Rules when fourth in a Wetherby maiden three weeks ago and, very much appealing as a likely improver with that under his belt, he could be the way to go for a yard in good form.

Kapal Layar is steadily going the right way and is feared along with Star of Diamonds, while newcomer Tyrrhenus is another to note in the betting for Dan Skelton.

14:00 – Royal Jewel

ROYAL JEWEL pulled it out of the fire when getting off the mark over fences here last month, battling well to regain the upper hand close home after a mistake at the second-last looked as though it may prove costly.

He pulled well clear of the rest with the runner-up that day and this 5 lb higher mark should be within reach.

King Arise has done nothing at all wrong since switched to fences and he won’t go down without a fight, while likely improver Barrabooka is best of the rest.

14:32 – Guard Of The Moon

A half-brother to a smart staying chaser, we may yet see the best of GUARD THE MOON over this trip, and he can go one better than when finishing runner-up to a smart handicapper from the Nicky Henderson stable at Newbury last time.

Lossiemouth has shown plenty of promise since returning from a long absence, so he heads the dangers ahead of Icare Allen, who is still well-treated if on a going day, and Ikarak, who has looked as good as ever over hurdles for the Olly Murphy team.

 

15:07 – Javert Allen

JAVERT ALLEN has made an impressive start over fences this season, jumping well when making all of the running over this course and distance on his seasonal return and at Newbury in December.

He beat a talented, if not straightforward, horse last time, who has since franked the form. With further improvement forthcoming, he can maintain his unbeaten record in this sphere.

Last year’s winner, Prince Quali, continues to hold his form very well and is a solid alternative.

15:44 – Zambezi Fix

There should be enough pace on in this race to see hold-up performer and three-time course winner ZAMBEZI FIX run to better effect, and he might be able to capitalise on his falling handicap mark back at this venue.

The game, front-running Bucephalus arrives in great heart and can run well again despite a 7 lb hike for his latest success, while Sao Carlos should be more at home back on a galloping track.

16:17 – C’est Different

C’EST DIFFERENT‘s margin of victory was only three-quarters of a length at Carlisle on Monday, but, in reality, he was value for a good deal more, having been eased to a walk on the run-in.

There should be better to come from this unexposed five-year-old and, unpenalised for that, he is very difficult to oppose from a handicapping perspective.

The one who appeals most for forecast purposes is Arctic Saint, who has undergone a wind operation since his latest start and this drop back in trip looks a good move. No No Espresso is third choice.

 

16:52 – Just Golden

JUST GOLDEN and Pertemps represent very successful yards and showed enough on their respective debuts to think they can win a bumper.

Marginal preference is for the former, who represents a yard with an excellent record in this sphere this season, with a useful conditional on.

Parliamo ticks a few boxes on paper, so is a newcomer to note.
