While Onenightintown likes better ground, he has run all right on easier surfaces more than once. Alice who rides him, is very talented and great value for the 5lb claim. Could go close here.

I've Madeupmymind is a home-bred mare by top jumping sire Blue Bresil. She shapes nicely, but this is a big field and a run in the first four would be a good starting point for her career.

We've been a little disappointed with Manotepeople this season, but he's down a little in class after his eighth place last time at Doncaster. Tom is well worth the 7lb and they could prove a good partnership.

El Hibri handles his races well so should not be bothered by the swift turn-around from Wolverhampton on Friday. Rather than finishing a close 4th there he might have won with a clear run and should be bang there once again. Hopeful.

Lincoln Burrows got found out by the heavy ground at Ayr but still ran well in 3rd. Emma gets the buckshee 3lb for riding for us and he'll be happier on this surface. Good each-way chance.

Moon Over Mexico showed decent form in Irish points. If as expected the ground will be wet, he shouldn't be inconvenienced. Hopeful.

Jaytee ran two good races close together just before the New Year on this track. Nicely handicapped still but this is a stronger race today.

Les's Destiny Star was bought at the Land Rover sale in the summer of 2022. We've been looking forward to this first run and hopefully, he will give those of his rivals with solid experience something to think about. Hopeful

Champagne Twist was an impressive winner of his final Irish point and has shown priogression between the first and second run over hurdles. If he can maintain the improvement from his latest 2nd at Cheltenham, he would have a favourite's chance here.

Jaytee ran two good races close together just before the New Year on this track. Nicely handicapped still but this is a stronger race today.

Justus was picked up relatively cheaply at the HIT sale and the experienced flat-race handicapper won at the 2nd time of asking over hurdles. The best we can do here is to run into a place behind Fergal's smart young mare.

We run two in this. Fainche was very disappointing last time, pulling up but it was her first run for us, and she'd been off the track since her last run in Ireland more than a year before that too. Watching brief.

Sun Joy has been free in his races for us so far. He was a winner on the flat in France and shows ability at home. We're trying cheekpieces today to see if he'll settle better. Small each-way chance.

Enemy hasn't won since his epic 2nd, earning 400 grand for Tracey and Caroline last February in Saudi Arabia, but as he showed the last twice, another win can't be far off. He lost out in a last furlong private stable battle with Zealander who was receiving 16lb over 2m at Newcastle. Neither horse stopped…

Night On Earth was a winner everywhere but the line here last week. He just about lasts home and if he can make his usual alert start and cut across the field from his wide draw at the first bend, that might give him sufficient advantage to hold on this time. White-knuckle stuff all the…

Mister Bells can run well. We weren't expecting as good a run as his 3rd over this CD last time when he was running on past beaten horses. Emma can claim the 3lb - a freebie really for riding for us in a conditionals' race and if he can build on the last run, he…

Herakles Westwood is going the right way having won his last two. A comfortable scorer in two novice handicaps he now steps into open handicap company but with a mark that he can still handle. Looks good for the first three.

Roysse is probably my best chance on the day. He never shows much at home, but I think he could be one of those horses who finds plenty when he gets to the track. I expect him to outrun his odds.

Abuffalosoldier has had a wind-op since his last run and seems in good form at home. Cheekpieces are applied to help him concentrate. He has good form on this track over hurdles, and hopefully, he can translate that to fences.

I see you can get 150/1 about Molto Bene, but I'm confident she will run much better than the price suggests. She appeared to be lame when she came off the matting at Ludlow so Gavin pulled her up, but she's fine and not without ability. It's a decent race but I expect her to…
