I always try to find the value in a race. I analyse Handicaps carefully and most my selections will be at double figure odds. However the most important thing is to have fun making and listening or seeing your selection running. Winners are just a pleasurable bonus.

13:45 1:45 Redcar

Martha Costello

Daily Racing

25 EW

10.00

Back it

Martha Costello placed last here ten days ago over six furlongs. She was badly hampered in that race and can be forgiven for that run. Could bounce back.
14:25 2:25 Southwell

Destinado

Daily Racing

25 EW

6.00

Back it

Destinado comes here in excellent form with a recent win and second place. He has been upped in the weights but is expected to be thereabouts again.
14:30 2:30 Punchestown

Magic Day

Daily Racing

25 EW

15.00

Back it

Magic Day has not finished outside the frame in all of his races. This is more competitive, but he should still progress and hit the frame again.
15:00 3:00 Southwell

Stroxx

Daily Racing

25 EW

12.00

Back it

Stroxx comes here in decent form and could go well. He has placed five times over course and distance and is one to consider for the frame.
15:05 3:05 Punchestown

An Peann Dearg

Daily Racing

25 EW

15.00

Back it

A Peann Dearg did not make the grade at Cheltenham in March. He is now being dropped in trip which could give him a chance to bounce back.
15:25 3:25 Redcar

Latin Five

Daily Racing

25 EW

7.00

Back it

Latin Five runs very well in defeat but struggles to win these days. This is his first run at Redcar, and a chance is taken that he will hit the frame.
16:10 4:10 Southwell

Distinction

Daily Racing

25 EW

15.00

Back it

Distinction showed some return to form at Doncaster a month ago, placing third. He is now dropping back in trip, and he has a chance on last summer's form.
16:15 4:15 Punchestown

Karl Des Tourelles

Daily Racing

25 EW

15.00

Back it

Karl Des Tourelles placed 7th behind Doddiethegreat in the Pertemps in March. This is a more preferable scenario for him, and he could get closer this time.
16:25 4:25 Yarmouth

Royal Velvet

Daily Racing

25 EW

7.00

Back it

Royal Velvet won back to back over course and distance back in July. She now returns after a break but has won fresh in the past and is one to consider.
16:35 4:35 Redcar

Ey Up Its The Boss

Daily Racing

25 EW

8.50

Back it

See That Storm is the obvious choice, but Ey Up Its The Boss, who is also a previous course and distance winner, is capable of causing an upset or getting very close.
16:45 4:45 Southwell

Brother Dave

Daily Racing

25 EW

15.00

Back it

Brother Daved returns after a break of nearly a year. He won back to back over course and distance thirteen months ago, and provided he goes well fresh, can get involved.
16:50 4:50 Punchestown

Timetoshine

Daily Racing

25 EW

23.00

Back it

Timetoshine won her last three races. This is a different class and a much tougher race. Nevertheless, she seems to be progressing, and a chance is taken that she will hit the frame.
17:00 5:00 Yarmouth

Beauty Nation

Daily Racing

25 EWNAP

9.00

Back it

Beauty Nation returns after a break of 231 days. She placed 7th on her handicap debut at Doncaster but that was in a much more demanding race. Now dropped in grade and upped in distance she could bounce back.
17:20 5:20 Southwell

Charlie Mason

Daily Racing

25 EW

6.00

Back it

Charkie Mason was 5th of 12 over five furlongs at Chelmsford City a fortnight ago. He won at Leicester over the distance earlier last month. Now back up in trip, he could figure again.
17:50 5:50 Ayr

Mister Invincible

Daily Racing

25 EW

11.00

Back it

Mister Invincible was 5th of 19 on debut at Ripon behind Angelic Bugler. He will not need to improve much to figure here and is an each way option.
18:00 6:00 Punchestown

Rockys Diamond

Daily Racing

25 EW

8.00

Back it

Rockys Diamond was 4th in the Paddy Power behind Teahupoo (2nd). He could reverse that form now in more favorable conditions and is an each way contender.
18:35 6:35 Punchestown

He Cant Dance

Daily Racing

25 EW

17.00

Back it

A chance is taken on the stable's second choice, He Cant Dance. Well behind Bambino Fever at Cheltenham (eight lengths), he could do better now back on home ground and is an each way option.
19:15 7:15 Chelmsford City

Spirit Dor

Daily Racing

25 EW

21.00

Back it

A chance is taken on the French raider Spirit D Or in the hands of Jack Mitchell. She won a valuable race at the Curragh last September and could surprise at larger odds.
19:30 7:30 Ayr

Dingwall

Daily Racing

25 EW

7.50

Back it

Dingwall did not appreciate the sharper mile last time out. He is now back up in trip and could bounce back as a previous course and distance winner.
20:45 8:45 Chelmsford City

Aim For The Bull

Daily Racing

25 EW

6.50

Back it

Aim For The Bull placed 4th over course and distance at the beginning of last month. He could do better now if building on his last run and is one to consider for the frame.
