Was a very impressive winner of the Cheltenham Gold Cup last time, and if anywhere near that kind of form will take the beating here. Although Fact to File does come here a fresh horse after missing the Ryanair on the day of the race.

Loves it around this track and was a cosy winner of his latest run here when well backed. The claimer on top is very good value for his seven pounds. Has a great chance of following up here.

This wonderfully consistent performer is on a six-timer, and what a place it would be to achieve that. The winner of a Fairyhouse Grade One last time, and the step up to three miles should suit.

What a clash in store at St. Mary's, where a lot is hanging on the result for both sides. Which club will get promotion and who will have to make do with a play-off place? The in-form home side are taken to nick it.

An intriguing contest here, with Majborough hoping to put in a clear round of jumping like he did when winning the time before last. He got back to his bad jumping mode at the festival, but when he's right at his fences he is top class.

Kitzbuhel

A bold jumper. He battled well to win the Brown Advisory at the Cheltenham Festival and comes here with a big favourite's chance of following up.

El Cairos

Was very novicey in his first two hurdle runs, both times making mad mistakes at the last but still managing to win on the second occasion. A decent fifth in the Supreme at the Festival, and can get back into the winners' enclosure today.
15:30 3:30 Southwell
Reigning Queen
Daily Racing
An unraced horse from the powerful Balding yard. Word has it she has been difficult to keep right training-wise. The trainer says that he is managing to keep her right. She is very quick.

New Zealand

Useful and expected to progress this season. It will be interesting to see if market confidence comes for him, because on the figures he looks a good thing.

Chased the pace last time out at Newcastle and paid for that by wilting late on. Carries top weight here but can be dangerous in this grade.

Aiden O'Brien's two-year-old debutants are always dangerous. But at this time of year I like to back two-year-olds with the experience of a run, particularly when they have been a beaten favourite.

Coventry will be on a high after winning the league and will be crowned today before meeting a team needing to grab points to maintain their playoff position. It could be a good, open game with plenty of goalmouth action.

Accuracy and a decent short game are the main ingredients needed for this course. One player who comes to mind immediately is David Hillier. He hasn't played that much this year, but when he has, his form figures are pretty good.

Ewen Ferguson has found some decent form lately, having two top-ten finishes in his last three tournaments. He comes here with strong claims of getting a fourth title at this level.

Oliver Lindell is showing signs that his first win on the circuit might not be too far away. The Finn has five top-fifteen finishes this year. If he has a good week with the putter, then he could be competitive.

Kenneth is taken to open his account here at Southwell after finishing second on debut. That experience won't be wasted, and he can go one better today.

Decent as a two??'year??'old and was chinned on reappearance at Leopardstown. This trip is likely to suit even more, and must go close.

Norwich have been one of the top-form sides in the Championship this calendar year, and that form is set to continue with another home win.

This has all the ingredients of being a tight, low-goalscoring game between two teams that have been struggling at the wrong end of the table all season.
15:00 QPR v Derby
Derby
The home side are in a position of not having anything to play for at this stage of the season and have stated that using fringe players may be the way to go. Derby come here needing the three points to keep any hope of a playoff place open.

It looks like the visitors can keep their slim chance alive of getting a play-off place by meeting a home side that is not in good form right now. They may give fringe players the chance to shine.
15:00 Sheff Utd v Preston
Sheff Utd
The home side have been going through a torrid time results-wise of late and need to get back to winning ways. They meet a team today who are in a similar vein of form. With top players at their disposal, the Blades should get the points.

With the attacking options the home side have, they could challenge any Championship team on their day. If today is one of those days, they are capable of creating plenty of goal-scoring opportunities.

Has been off the track for a good time since his Royal Ascot Norfolk Stakes win, but sets a clear standard and will be hard to beat on reappearance.

Seems to have improved since the move to the Moore camp. Was back to his best in the Ultima and then won at Chepstow last time. I've always thought he is even better going right-handed, so will be tough to beat today.

Charlton seem to have pulled themselves clear of the relegation zone, claiming valuable points through draws, and that trend can continue here. But Hull will be up for it, attempting to claw themselves back into the play-off places.

The home side have been drawing a fair few games of late without setting the world alight through prolific goalscoring, so I expect a tight game without many goals.

Boro just have to win this game to maintain their position in the Championship and really should win cosily, as Watford have nothing to play for and have been quite poor of late.

The home side have, if anything, underperformed this season after investing heavily in the transfer market. They must get their end-of-term right by finishing on a high. They should be too good for Preston at home.

The home side have only flattered this season, and their fans expected more from them. They must show in the last few games what to expect going forward. I can see them struggling a little again but just sealing the points with an odd-goal win.

I take the visitors to add another draw to their line of draws they have had lately. The home side haven't been great themselves of late, so a share of the points could suit both sides.
