Ed Dunlop's Moonlight Bomb has a great chance here, off just a lb higher mark than the one he carried when winning on Wolverhampton's all-weather surface in January.

@+450
Lose
-50
Lucinda Russell and Michael Scudamore have enjoyed a successful first season of their training partnership, and they can continue it here with Inox Allen. Twelve months ago he made all and won by eleven lengths in a first-time visor in a novice handicap chase at this meeting. He hasn't shown anything since, pulling up on his return and beating only one rival in two other starts. He gets in here off just four pounds higher, which is counterbalanced by Alan Doyle's three-pound claim, and has cheekpieces fitted for the first time. I think he has a great chance of repeating last year's win.

Paul Midgley's Ventura Express has had two wins and a runner-up finish from his three starts over this C&D. The nine-year-old, who gets in here seven lbs below his last winning mark and is in good form at the moment, nearly won at Newcastle last month, going down by just a neck to Juan Les Pins, who has franked that form since.

Half Nutz

@+4000
Lose
-50
Currently trained by James Barcoe, Half Nutz has been through many yards since the last of his six career wins at over today's seven-furlong trip at the Curragh back in 2022, while still an inmate of the Johnny Murtagh stable. Following that win he was raised nine lbs by the handicapper to a career-high mark of 85. He gets in here off one of 42, minus the ten-pound claim of today's jockey. With four places being paid here, I think he could be worth a small each-way bet, in the hope that he retains some of his old ability.

Mi Sueno

@+650
Lose
-50
David Brace's Mi Sueno was going well before making a bad mistake and almost unseating his jockey three out over this C&D last month. He looks very well handicapped here, with Tristan Durrell taking over in the saddle. Has a chance.

Simply Blue

Lose
-50
James Owen still has his horses running well, and his Simply Blue can defy the extra four lbs in the handicap and follow up on his win over the minimum trip at Wolverhampton two weeks ago, where he swooped late to snatch victory close home. The extra two furlongs of today's trip will not be a problem, as he won over this distance, also at Wolverhampton, off a three lb higher mark than the 61 he carries here while trained by David Loughnan.
15:40 3:40 Perth
Coup De Coeur
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+550
Lose
-50
Micky Hammond's Coup de Coeur finished a good second, three lengths behind the progressive Marty McFly in a series final at Carlisle last time out. He runs here off just a two-pound higher mark of 125, and as he is dropping in grade he has a good chance.
14:10 2:10 Perth
King Roly
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+500
Lose
-50
Two of Mickey Bowen's King Roly's five career wins have come over this C&D. Those wins came in August and September last year. He also managed to fit in a runner-up finish between those two runs. He has a big chance on his return to Perth, where his record reads 1-2-1-2-1. King Roly appears to have been freshened up for this race; he hasn’t run since finishing a close fourth in a two-and-a-half-mile novice handicap chase at Hexham in October.
13:52 1:52 Catterick
Tuscan Point
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+450
Lose
-50
Adam Kirby has his string in fine fettle at the moment. He had a couple of winners last weekend and currently has a 29% strike rate in the last fortnight. He can have another here with former Richard Fahey-trained Tuscan Point, who was an easy five-and-a-half-length winner over six furlongs on Southwell's Fibresand surface on his stable debut in March. Dropping back to the minimum trip here should not be a problem.

Gordon Elliott sends over two raiders here: Newbrook Diamond and my pick, Debutante Holy Joe. Although the former is the first string, I think an each-way bet on Holy Joe is a better option.

Now trained by Steph Hollinshead, Corduroy's best run for his previous trainer James Fanshawe was his final one, which came over today's C&D, where he finished third, only a nose behind the favourite in this Crown Inn To Win, whom he meets here on a lb better terms. Although he is still a maiden after six starts, it looks as though that will not be the case for much longer. Today he could make a winning debut for his new yard.
16:32 4:32 Pontefract
Izakaya
Daily Racing

Both of Camilla Poulton's Izakaya's career wins came last autumn. She could improve after last month's return to action on Lingfield's all-weather surface.

Eyes Front
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+400
Lose
-50
Still winless after six starts, the Edward Smyth-Osborne-trained Eyes Front finished runner-up in two decent maidens at Leicester and Haydock last season. So far he has failed to progress in handicap company. He is today dropped to this basement-level handicap off a career-low mark of 69, so he has a chance. The booking of Kieran Shoemark is encouraging.

Newsreader
Daily Racing
25 EWNAP
@+1200
Lose
-50
All three of Newsreader's career wins have come over seven furlongs on Kempton's Polytrack surface while he was still in the Kevin Philippart de Foy stable. Since moving to the Edward Smyth-Osborne yard, he has run well a couple of times on turf, when runner-up over seven furlongs at Ffos Las in August and when a close third at Windsor over today's six-furlong trip in September, when cheekpieces were applied for the first time. He arrives here off a career-low mark of 75, the cheekpieces are reapplied, and he should be refreshed after a 194-day break. I think, with Ali Rawlinson taking over in the saddle for the first time, he is a great each-way bet here.

Richard and Peter Fahey's Have Secret was a comfortable winner of a Redcar handicap in November over today's mile and a quarter trip, off just a three-pound lower mark than the one of 91 he carries here. At the end of March he finished a good fifth at Doncaster. There was a strong headwind in the straight. From today's good low draw, he can build on that.

The Back Braes

50 WINNAP
@+1100
Lose
-50
There has been a sizable gamble from an opening show of about 33/1 right down to his current price of about a third of that on the Charles Marini-trained The Back Braes, an eight-year-old gelding who has shown very little in public in his two starts: one bumper and one hurdle under rules so far. He recently returned from a long absence with a point-to-point second last month and might come on for the run. He could be worth a small bet.
16:50 4:50 Redcar
Nicator
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+450
Lose
-50
Kevin Philippart De Foy has his horses running well at the moment. He can continue his good run here with his handicap debutante Nicator off an opening mark of 75. Nicator was just touched off by a subsequent winner, Fight Your Corner, over a mile at Southwell in December. The step up to a mile and a quarter and the return to turf should see Nicator get off the mark here at the fourth attempt.
16:30 4:30 Kelso
Fine Point
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+400
Lose
-50
Adam Nicol's Fine Point looked as if he needed the run when fourth at Sedgefield 19 days ago after eight months off. He should be sharper for that outing. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time, and he steps up slightly in trip, which could suit. He also comes here off a two-pound lower mark than the one he last won off.

Cadarn

-50
Kevin Ryan has his string running nicely at the moment. He had a winner and two seconds at Thirsk on Saturday, and his good form can continue at Redcar with Cadarn, who is making his just second start for the stable here after joining from George Boughey. The five-year-old gelding was out of his depth when finishing thirteenth in the Spring Mile at Doncaster on his stable debut three weeks ago. He should feel more comfortable here, where he is unbeaten over this C&D, including this race last year.

Jim Bolger, who by his standards is having a really bad start to the season, can get off the mark here with his filly Dreoilin. After staying on well in a six-furlong maiden here on her seasonal debut 34 days ago, she was unlucky to bump into the remarkably well-handicapped Servare, who beat her by seven lengths over a mile and a quarter at Navan about three weeks ago. Today's mile trip looks ideal for her.

Seamus Mullins has his string running well, as demonstrated by his 20% strike rate in the last two weeks. He is represented here by handicap debutant Chartwell Jock, who won four times on the flat for Andrew Balding but has yet to trouble the judge over timber. The four-year-old ran against some good horses in his three qualifying runs and is now dropped several grades for his handicap bow. He should go very close today.

Pescatorius
Daily Racing

Pescatorius is a strong stayer who won twice for the Olly Murphy stable in the autumn but hasn't been in the same form since joining the Rob Summers yard. He should appreciate today's three-mile three-furlong trip and could bounce back here.

Bethpage

Emma Lavelle does really well with her staying hurdlers. Today she runs Bethpage in the valuable BetGoodwin Sussex Stayers' Handicap Hurdle. Bethpage looked in need of the run when nearly thirty lengths behind the winner when third over two miles and five furlongs at Ascot three weeks ago. She will be much better suited stepping up in distance to three miles one furlong here. With Harry Cobden, who won on her at Stratford last year on the only previous occasion he rode her, back on board here she has a great chance.

The Dominic Ffrench Davis yard is in great form at the moment. He had a couple of winners here yesterday and can continue his good run here with The Golden Snitch, who ran a lot better than his odds of 100/1 suggested when finishing fourth on his racecourse debut in a seven-furlong Doncaster novice race nineteen days ago. That day he had one of the favourites here, King Of Earth, finish less than two lengths ahead of him in second place. The way The Golden Snitch was finishing there suggested that today's mile trip will suit him better. At about 20/1, I think he is a great each-way bet here.

Gimarias

Having completed his three qualifying runs, Mel Rowley's Gimarias makes his handicap debut here. He showed promise in two of those runs, and the form of his penultimate start at Hereford has begun to work out nicely. He gets in here off an opening mark of 95 minus Murray Dodd's seven lb claim, and has a decent each-way chance.

Joseph O'Brien's Kim Roque can improve on his career-best fourth in the Kim Muir last time. That was the stiffest test of stamina the progressive six-year-old had faced so far in his four chase career, although he is still a novice who has yet to win over fences, I think he has a great chance today. Novices have a good record in this race.

Last year's Lincoln runner-up, George Boughey's Oliver Show looks well handicapped in this years renewal of the Spring Cup, the six-year-old gets in here off a three lb lower mark of 92 than the one he carried when going down by just a nose in the big race twelve months ago. The booking of James Doyle is encouraging.

Hughie Morrison's Secret Squirrel has been the subject of a gamble here, from 14/1 overnight down to around 9/2 at the moment. The seven-year-old has only had two runs this season, finishing third behind subsequent Aintree Hurdle third Alexei before finishing down the field in the County Hurdle. It looks like his connections expect him to bounce back today.

Today, back to his optimum trip of two miles, he can go in again.

Tony Carroll had a very good winter, winning the all-weather trainers' championship, and he can continue his good form into the turf season here with Justcallmepete. He is an all-weather specialist but gets in here off 78, which is five lbs lower than the one he won off at Chelmsford in December.

Hidden History showed big improvement when switched to Dan Skelton's yard in March last year. He beat Wellington Arch (now 22 lb higher) at Uttoxeter on his stable debut before going down narrowly to subsequent Silver Trophy winner Rambo T next time. After two disappointing runs over fences he underwent wind surgery, with a ninth-place finish in a good hurdle race at Uttoxeter. Today he is dropped in grade and, more importantly, has his trainer's brother Harry taking over in the saddle. I think he can bounce back.

Richard Hannon can continue his good start to the season here with his filly Light Dreamer, who didn't run as a juvenile and instead made her racecourse debut as a three-year-old on April 1 in a Kempton maiden over today's seven-furlong trip. That day she drifted in the betting from an early 9/2 out to a starting price of 12/1 before putting up a great show when battling to second place, just a neck behind the Andrew Balding-trained hot-pot, Nanoscience. She had the rest of the field nearly three lengths behind her. Although this is a tougher assignment today, she could have improved.

Although he hasn't won in any of his three starts since, he showed a bit of promise when finishing third over a mile at Meydan 76 days ago. Dropping back to six furlongs here should suit him, and he should strip fitter than most of today's rivals, having had two runs in Meydan in January.

That day he finished two and a half lengths in front of the Appleby-trained Pacifica Pier. Prior to that run he had gone down by a similar margin in a mile and two-furlong nursery here in October before being awarded the race in the stewards' room.
