This one finished 3/4L behind Rainbows Edge when they were 2nd and 3rd last time. He came from further back than the front two and promises to stay further. This step up in trip could prove fruitful, and the form reversal could be on.

This one mixes hurdling and flat racing, doing quite well over both. He won over this trip two back at Stratford and could follow up off 3lb higher, but he was poor on the flat last time. His form suggests that he could be a good E/W bet at 16/1.

This one is 4 for 4 over 5f, mostly leading late after being held up. Her only defeat came over this trip at Newmarket, but not all horses like it there, so I am willing to forgive that run as she has promised to stay 6f. She proved that big fields are not an issue, winning a 19-runner race last time and is given another try over 6f.

This one could be a good E/W bet at 14/1 if the draw favors the high numbers. The early races yesterday favored middle to low, the last two middle to high. This one is a three-time winner with two over 5f in lower grades, and after two lesser runs up in grade, won last time on first run over 6f. If this trip suits as promised, he could defy the 4lb rise in the same grade.

The two fastest dogs in this are traps 1 and 5, and both can be slowest out. Trap 1, however, is erratic at the traps but regularly records fast times and is more consistent than trap 5, so it is the pick.

Trap 2 is a rare winner, but from 8m she could get the run of the race. A normal start should see her quickly make up the stagger on Trap 1, lead at the bend, and with fast overall times, could stay in front holding the outside dogs.

With most of these slow out, Trap 1 could lead and have the run of the race, but he weakens late. For that reason, I have gone for Trap 5 to finish best and reverse recent form with Trap 6. He was only a head behind last time they met but is much faster when starting well. He is likely to be out in last place, but any better will make him a danger.

Reading finished 1 place and 7 points in front of Bolton last season only just missing the play off places. They have started the season in poor form losing all 3 matches and scoring only 1 goal. Despite the short price I think that Bolton should have no problem winning this match at home but they must put their chances in the net.

There are a lot of horses in this yet to win, with only 3 having that honor. This one has been running quite well over 8f and is the only one to have won that far. The other 2 have won over 6f. At 20/1, this one could be a good E/W risk despite the wide draw.

Stable, as usual, are getting plenty of winners, and Colin Keane has ridden 2 of their last 5 winners and has been among the winners for different stables. This one is 3 for 3 so far over 13 and 14f, including a Group 2 last time. Although he might have to improve to win this, he is well worth the chance to go 4 for 4 if the drop in trip suits.

This race is wide open but I am taking a chance that Bergerac will do better this year from a low draw. He is a winner of this race in 2022 from a low draw but has been drawn high since but did the best of the high numbers last year when 6th leading that group home. He is twice a C/D winner from a low draw and has to enter calculations from stall 9 with good recent form.

This one stayed on strongly to lose out by a nose on the line over 8f on debut. The stable is not as prolific as earlier but has been among the winners. If the faster going and extra 4f in trip suits, this one could go one better for a welcome winner for both jockey and trainer.

This one was around 20/1 earlier and was one of my best bets here tomorrow. His only win came over 6f on handicap debut off 98 in class 5, but he shot up to grade 2 after and his form rapidly dropped. He has dropped down the grades and 3lb to a new mark of an all-time low 65. He has left Richard Hannon and is making his debut for a stable doing quite well with this type, and in a first-time visor is taken to return to form.

The stable had a winner recently, and her horses continue to run well. This one improved on her debut to finish 2nd under this jockey but finished midfield up to 8f last time. As a stable that I like to follow, I have to get this one with Wayne Lordan returning back to 7.5f.

This one seemed to stick out in this race, having won over C/D 3 back on his only visit here. He had Over Spiced behind that day and is 5lb worse off, and this jockey rode Savannah Smiles for her last win 4 back. This requires more, but the jockey has been in fine form and could confirm previous running.

With my original pick, Hidden Verse, taken out, I have to side with my second pick in this, Over Spiced. She was 2.25L behind Hidden Verse over C/D last time here and would have been 8lb better off. Her C/D form of 3-1-2 with a highest winning mark of 64 puts her ahead of Savanna Smiles, whose highest winning mark is 58. She is only 1lb higher, so has to be the pick now.

This one left debut running over 6f behind when finishing 2nd up in trip to 7f. He could be the one to beat here after finding only a well-needed newcomer too good. Drops from class 4 to class 5. The faster going could be an issue with the latest run being on soft. Favourite is a slight negative.

There was nothing that stood out in this race of the horses that have run, but this one is a half-sister to 3 winners, and her dam is a half-sister to a winner up to 8f. She is a Mehmas filly, and the progeny from that one have been running well. So, although this one is a negative, I have taken her to win on debut.
