3:45 Huntingdon Tips

Castanea Breeze won off a nine-pound lower mark at Market Rasen in December. He has finished 2nd twice since then, going up in the weights each time. He could still return to winning here at Huntingdon in a competitive handicap.

Henry Daly's Cuillin Ridge improved for a step up in trip when runner-up over three miles at Wetherby. The six-year-old stuck to his task very well that day and should appreciate today's extra furlong in trip.

Dartmouth Rose returns after a three-month break. Her last two runs were poor, but she was in good form prior and goes well fresh.

Pop's Folly is a horse that prefers a steady pace. In his victory at Fakenham, he demonstrated his ability to maintain a long stride over longer distances. As the top weight (11??'12 lb), his ability to set the pace from the front will be vital. He sits at the upper limit of this category (0??'95 lb), indicating he is the horse with the highest intrinsic quality in the field, and his speed figures (RPR 86, Official Mark (OR) 95) are impressive. Callum Pritchard (5 lb) and trainer Christian Williams. Williams is a master at preparing horses for long distances (stayers), and the jockey allowance is a crucial tactical advantage.

Three starts over hurdles for the 6-year-old mare. She has not shown a great deal, but she has run in decent company and her last two runs were over 16f. It's interesting that she now makes her handicap debut over a 25f trip. This ex-PTP winner could be more competitive over this longer trip. She has a nice mark for this low-grade contest.
