12.25pm Thurles - Jett 2pts Win (3/1) Montalbano is the hot favourite here for Willie Mullins and Rich Ricci, but with his presence in the race I feel it just seems we are getting a much better price on Jett. Being a second season novice over fences, he has a crucial experience edge over the... Continue Reading →
1.40pm Ludlow - Robin The Raven 2pts Win (15/8) Won or placed in 6 of his 8 starts under rules, Robin The Raven is a consistent sort who's got some decent form. Most notably behind Mr One More and then when ahead of Take To Heart who's won twice subsequently. He was running a decent... Continue Reading →
12.10pm Haydock - Gortroe Joe 2pts Win (9/2) Gortroe Joe would have won a Point to Point if not coming to grief at the second last fence and confirmed that promise with a very eye catching run in third at Cheltenham last month. He should come on plenty for that on ground that shouldn't hold... Continue Reading →
1.00pm Ascot - Sizing Tennessee 2pts Win (7/4) Sternrubin is top rated in this race and he ran very well on Chase debut when not beaten far by Yanworth, but I can't really take that form at face value and much prefer Sizing Tennessee. He's got some solid form in the book with a couple... Continue Reading →
12.40pm Market Rasen - Molly Childers 2pts Win (6/4) Stuart Edmunds is in top form with 3 wins from his last 9 runners and he saddles handicap debutant Molly Childers here. She has some strong back form with seconds to Ravenhill Road and Whatzdjazz. The form of her last run is working out well with... Continue Reading →
1.00pm Southwell - Fountains Windfall 2pts Win (15/8) Some promising chasers in this field, but to me Fountains Windfall is the one that sticks out. He was very progressive over hurdles last season, gaining three wins including an easy beating of Neil Mulholland's more than useful Solighoster. On his final start of the season, Fountains...

1.45pm Bangor - Potters Legend 2pts Win (3/1) After securing a couple of wins over the larger obstacles in this month last year (one at this track), Potters Legend consistently ran well in high quality races, including in a Grade 2 at Doncaster and the Kim Muir at the Cheltenham Festival. He should come on... Continue Reading →
2.25pm Musselburgh - Chestnut Ben 1pt Each Way (8/1) This is a pretty weak looking affair and the 12 year old Chestnut Ben looks set to outrun his odds. He is 2 from 3 over course and distance (including one win off 115), the one of those that he didn't win he was a neck... Continue Reading →
1.50pm Redcar - Awake My Soul 1pt Win (5/1) These soft underfoot conditions will be of no problem to Awake My Soul who won under stamina sapping circumstances at Haydock back in September. He ran well in a higher class of race last time out and was half a length second in this race last... Continue Reading →
2.05pm Wetherby - La Bague Au Roi 3pts Win (11/10) A real standout in this field having won 7 of her 10 career starts and clear on official ratings. She ran a very respectable 6th behind Finian's Oscar at Aintree which is a decent piece of form, quite simply I think she's better than this... Continue Reading →
