Gentleman De Mee
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+900

-50
The Willie Mullins-trained Gentleman De Mee won the corresponding race last year, beating the runner-up Lisnamult Lad by three-quarters of a length. He can win this again this year off just three lbs higher.
Teddy Blue

-50
Despite Harry Derham's Teddy Blue's reluctance to start last time out a month ago at Kempton, he showed his battling qualities later in the race to run out a neck winner on a driving finish. He looks well capable of getting placed at least here, particularly with six places being paid.

JPR One

Joe Tizzard's Jpr One ran a fine race when finishing fourth in the Ryanair at Cheltenham. He will be better suited by this less demanding track. He looks a great each-way bet to me.

Sober Glory

@-149
Lose
-50
Beaten a length and a half in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle by Old Park Star in March. Prior to that, the only time the Philip Hobbs & John White-trained front-runner Sober Glory has been beaten was in the Listed Claremont Novices' Hurdle at Sandown last year. I expect him to put up a bold show here today.
14:20 2:20 Aintree
Jordans Cross
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+1100
Lose
-50
After being backed down from 8/1 into 11/2, Anthony Honeyball's Jordans Cross never really got into the race and finished a disappointing eighth at Cheltenham last time out. That run was too bad to be true, and I will give him another chance today at a course where he has already won.
13:45 1:45 Aintree
Joyeuse

With a strike rate of 23%, Nicky Henderson is in good form at the moment. He can take the opening race of Day 2 of the Aintree Festival with Joyeuse, who finished a respectable third in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham off just a two lb lower mark last time out. Today she has cheekpieces fitted for the first time.
Trustintimes

@+1400
Lose
-50
Harry Fry's Trustintimes has massively improved this year. He won his first three races over hurdles before finishing second at Kempton in December, with subsequent winners in 1st, 3rd and 4th. He looks ready for the step up in trip today and is a sound each-way bet here, with five places being paid.

The Paul Nicholls-trained Sans Bruit has won this race for the last two years off marks of 128 and 130 respectively and comes here off a mark of 133. It looks like the champion trainer has laid him out for this race, and I think he will complete the hat-trick this afternoon.

Joe Tizzard's Alexei ran very well until making a bad mistake at the last when fourth in the Champion Hurdle last time out, and has a great chance here of beating Brighterdaysahead and The New Lion, both of whom finished ahead of him at Cheltenham.

Miracles Do Happen
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+500
Win
250
Tom Lacey has a small string in fine fettle at the moment, as shown by his 40% strike rate in the last two weeks. He can have another winner here with the six-year-old mare Miracles Do Happen, who ran too free when only sixth of eight at Hereford over two miles last month. She has a tongue tie fitted for the first time here.

The Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero-trained Gaboriot has a great each-way chance in this year's Foxhunters. The ten-year-old has been placed twice over these fences and gets a change of headgear, with a visor fitted for the first time here.

Jimmy Mangan's Spillanes Tower missed this year's Cheltenham Gold Cup because of the ground. He can get compensation here on todays sounder going.

Mange Tout
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+600
Win
300
Gordon Elliott's Mange Tout finished third, a length and a half behind Selma De Vary on very heavy ground at Leopardstown when last seen in February. Today's sounder ground will suit him a lot better, and I think he can take the opening race of this year's Grand National meeting.

The Bitter Moose
Daily Racing

@+900
Lose
-50
The Patrick Chamings-trained The Bitter Moose made all for an easy four-and-a-half-length win at Epsom in August. Next time out, in an amateur race at Ascot in October, he finished last of the seventeen runners. The track, the soft ground, and particularly the aggressive ride he was given didn't suit him there. I think, with Hector Crouch onboard, he is worth another chance in what looks an easier assignment here this evening.

Just An Hour
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+650
Lose
-50
The first of Rod Millman's three wins last season came on his seasonal debut over today's C&D in April. George Wood, who was on board for one of those wins, is booked to ride again here. I think he has a great chance of making another winning reappearance today.
16:07 4:07 Nottingham
Sir David
Daily Racing
25 EWNAP
@+2000
Lose
-50
Last season, while still in the Stella Barclay stable, after a win in a seven-furlong Carlisle handicap, Sir David looked to be progressing nicely. He then ran inexplicably poorly, finishing last of the nine runners in a Hamilton when stepping up to a mile for the first time, having previously looked as if that would be his ideal trip. He has since moved to Nigel Tinkler, for whom he makes his stable debut here. Maybe the new scenery will rejuvenate him. If you can forgive that one bad run, he is worth a few quid each way at a big price, with four places being paid.
13:38 1:38 Catterick
Sir Benedict
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+600
Lose
-50
Ben Haslam has his string in good form, as shown by his 27% strike rate in the last two weeks. He can continue that good run here with Sir Benedict, who finished second in a Newcastle classified race over this distance four weeks ago, and that form gives him a great chance here.

Tonal

Lose
-50
This can go to the Ian Williams-trained Tonal, who has been ultra-consistent on an artificial surface. He is the only C&D winner in the field. He continued his upward trajectory by defeating a well-fancied stable companion last time at Chelmsford. A six lb rise in the handicap may not stop him going in again here.

Iris Dancer

@+2000
Win
75
Tristan Davidson's Iris Dancer is making her seasonal debut here, which is not normally the time I would back her, as the eight-year-old mare usually needs a couple of runs to show her best form. But today, a combination of the fact she gets in here four lbs below her last winning mark and that she has the plumb draw in stall one tempts me to back her each way, with four places being paid.
16:55 4:55 Southwell
Maybe Soon
Daily Racing

@+2500
Lose
-50
Tom Tate's Maybe Soon has made steady progress in her three starts so far. She was well beaten over this trip at Newcastle last time, but there she bumped into the potentially very good Andrew Balding-trained Infinite Dream, who blew away the whole field. Today she makes her handicap debut against more modest opposition off a good opening mark of 80. I think she is worth a few quid each way.
15:57 3:57 Pontefract
Vantheman
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@+1100
Lose
-50
Pontefract, with its sharp left-handed turn and stiff uphill finish, is one of the most unique courses in Britain. As such, course form is more important than elsewhere. One of Kevin Ryan-trained Vantheman's turf wins came over today's C&D off a three-pound higher mark in 2024. Today he is also returning from a 46-day break, having in the past run his best races when fresh.
14:10 2:10 Exeter
Locked Down Lad

@+550
Lose
-50
Still a maiden after twelve starts, Joe Tickle's Locked Down Lad hung badly left before being impeded by a stricken horse after the last, and faded on the run-in at Chepstow eleven days ago. There has been a bit of money for him here. His supporters obviously think the fitting of cheekpieces will bring about some improvement today.

This could be a great day for the O'Neils. First-time blinkers saw Monbeg Genius stay on for third in the Kim Muir at Cheltenham, a race in which he had all but one of the Irish raiders finish behind him. The headgear remains on today. Monbeg Genius has threatened to win one of these big staying handicap chases over the last couple of years and gets in here with the good weight of 10st 13lb (21 of the last 25 winners carried 10st 13lb or less).

@+600
Lose
-50
Neil Mulholland's Transmission looked back to his best when winning the Edinburgh National at Musselburgh in February. He was such an easy twelve-length winner that day that I doubt the eight-pound rise in the weights will be enough to stop him. Anyway, that rise is counterbalanced here by the seven-pound claim of Harry Atkins.
15:45 3:45 Plumpton
High Fibre

@+700

-50
Harry Fry's High Fibre took advantage of a substantial drop in the weights to beat Wild Goose by two and a quarter lengths over two miles at Kempton on his penultimate start a fortnight ago. A week ago he was headed in the final strides and beaten by a short head by the well-backed Jack Hyde, but those who backed him down to favouritism that day could get their money back here as he steps back up in trip. With two of his three runners winning, Harry Fry has a good record at Plumpton this season. High Fibre can keep that good run going this afternoon.

Jamie Snowden's horses are running well. He had a winner at the recent Cheltenham Festival and can continue the good run here with Double Click, who has found a degree of consistency recently but would prefer softer ground.

Muddy Mooy has form figures of 1214 on the all-weather. She was last seen finishing runner-up to subsequent Group 1 winner Quisisana on her first attempt at a mile and two furlongs in July last year while still trained by Paul Attwater. She’s since moved to Charlie Pike, who trained the runner-up in a Listed race at Newcastle on Friday. With Eddie Greatrex booked, she looks a really good each-way bet here. Just make sure you do it with one of the firms paying three places.

-50
Bought for nearly £200,000 in 2020 by Willie Mullins Ballybay, who, after a stop-start career, has more letters than numbers after his name, hasn't really lived up to expectations, to put it mildly. Currently trained by Murty McGrath, the nine-year-old did show a bit of promise before making a bad mistake four out over fences at Huntingdon last time out. He could be worth a small each-way bet now he is back over timber.

Beelzebub
Daily Racing

Now trained by David Loughnane, Beelzebub, who hasn't won since 2024, did show some promise in headgear on his last two starts. Three weeks ago, over today's C&D, he met trouble throughout and never had a clear run before finishing strongly, beaten a length and a half. He is now 15 lbs below his last winning mark and, with Jack Callan taking off his five-pound claim here, he looks to have a real chance.

Richard Hannon can continue his excellent start to the turf season here with his Wheels Of Fire. The four-year-old was gelded over the winter and looked in need of the run when beaten by four and a half lengths at Newcastle last month, but that should have put him spot on.

In his last two races, Joe Tizzard's ten-year-old Triple Trade was up against better, younger rivals.

Back in these calmer waters, he has a real chance today.

Olly Murphy's horses continue to be in excellent form, as demonstrated by his 32% strike rate in the last couple of weeks. He can continue that fine run here with Secret Trix, who won this race two years ago off a lb higher mark than the one of 120 he carries here. Lewis Saunders is booked for the first time, taking off a further five lbs for his claim. All seven of Secret Trix's career wins have come with cheekpieces fitted, but he has gone without them in his last four starts. Today, they go back on.

The Oliver Signy-trained Its Top won a bumper here in November 2024 and finished a respectable 13-length second to subsequent Supreme Novices' Hurdle runner-up Sober Glory on his hurdling debut in a Newbury novice in January. He followed that by making all when winning a Carlisle novice hurdle in February. He then completely failed to get into the race on his handicap debut at Uttoxeter 19 days ago. I can only assume that the soft ground didn't suit him there. He should be much happier on today's sounder conditions.
