Second-up here after resuming seventh under an inexperienced apprentice, but with Tom Marquand in the pigskin and that run under the belt, I think we'll see a considerably improved performance here. Has gone well second-up previously.

Bondi Beach is probably going to be more popular than this horse after a very ordinary debut, but there were a few excuses to be offered for that debut failure, not the least of which was drawing wide on a course that favors inside barriers. Was forward for a long way despite that and faded late. Needed the experience, and I'm expecting a much-improved showing this time out.

Kieren O'Neill was very effusive about this filly after an impressive debut where she missed the kick and then produced a sterling finish to cut down a breakaway trip late in the piece on debut. The money was on too. Was all at sea and as green as grass, so with the nearly five months off, will have had considerable experience at getting it right. Strong type who looks set to go places.

Mr Nippy hails from the strong Johnston yard and they were successful in this race last year with Zabeel Road. Always have their debutantes forward and they will be looking for a repeat here in a similarly small field.

Kevin Ryan has an outstanding 20% strike rate with his horses on AW tracks. On the Tapeta, Bergerac has won three times and had three placings from 13 attempts. Has won second-up twice and comes in here in that condition after a forgettable resuming effort when squeezed for room in the straight and wasn't far from the winner that day, all things considered. Big improver, I reckon.
17:15 5:15 Southwell
Dixieland Blues
Daily Racing
Has looked a very promising type in a limited career to date for the Crisfords and would be a deserving winner here after solid performances leading into this. Looks sure to have taken considerable benefit from the last run and expecting to go one better under Harry Davies.

Oisin Murphy takes the reins for the Kublers, and it will be interesting to see if the trainers can (Khan?) repeat the first-up win at Bath this time out. That was the best first-up effort during this horse's career to date. He has managed a winning double twice in his career, so obviously holds form well once he strikes it.

Paul Mulrennan to ride so won't lack for horsemanship and Joe Parr is a good trainer, who will have taken his time bringing Jazz Scene back after a wind operation. Probably preferred right-handed but could upset this lot on the fresh side.
14:50 2:50 Longchamp
Aventure
Daily Racing
Will start a deserved favorite after going under in the last two on this course to the very talented Bluestocking. No disgrace in that and looks well placed here on a rain-affected track.
14:30 2:30 Wetherby
Coma Cluster
Daily Racing
Coma Cluster looked like a winner next time out on that last run and with Billy Loughnane in the saddle, looks well placed to do just that here. Looks sure to start a clear favourite given the indifferent form of some of the rivals.
13:33 1:33 Longchamp
Internaute
Daily Racing
Candelari is unbeaten in three runs and should start favorite here, but Longchamp might be the track for his undoing, especially as Internaute looked superb when winning fresh-up. Candelari has not struck underfoot conditions like he'll strike this time out, so I think the minor upset is on for the last start Saint Cloud winner.

Magic Seven was wisely put aside after failing miserably at Cheltenham in December and resumes here off the back of a 190-day spell. Won first-up in 2023 and it's not beyond the realms of possibility he could repeat that here with the same jockey.

Has won five times in this grade, so has been astutely placed. Top rider Hollie Doyle in the pigskin, and she has won on him twice from three rides. Four wins in these underfoot conditions and is a course and distance winner too. Fresh record not that flash, but maybe he can turn it around this time?

Super Citizen franked some very consistent lead-up form by winning stoutly last time out, and a repeat looks on the cards with B Hughes in the saddle for a very good yard. Course and distance winner, so that augurs well. Ready to go on with it now.

Grey Fox caused emotional scenes for his connections when winning for the Lavelle team when resuming. Course and distance winner who has shown to advantage on poly tracks previously. A repeat would be no great surprise. Has won six in this class already, thanks to an astute trainer.

Seam Bowen rides a very talented French import here, and they should be right in the mix in a huge field, provided they can avoid the possible trouble that can result in a bunching field of this nature. Four wins and five placings from 10 starts tell the story.

Darragh O'Keefe teams up with the second-string runner for the de Bromhead team in this race, and I think they can upset. Two third last time and has shown a liking for the course and distance previously. Might be coming into form at the right time for this one.

Each-way value all day here with Metaverse, whose resuming run was a midfield effort but much needed to top him off. Comes to hand quickly, as is evidenced by the fact that he has triumphed second-up previously, and off a longer break than the 190 days off before his last outing. Top rider up for an in-form trainer.

Yoshimi looks each-way value here. Andrea Pinna, who is a very promising apprentice and is having a great trot in the saddle presently, teams up with a good trainer. They could get the chocolates on Easter weekend. He has won here previously in class 6, and the freshen-up should have worked the oracle as he races best in those conditions (has won three of the last four appearances when in that state).

Taxus Baccata has placed in the last two races and is a course and distance winner who hails from the Crawley stable, which has an amazing 20% strike rate over the bigger fences. Underfoot conditions look to suit.

The Big Westerner
Daily Racing
Daragh O'Keefe will be looking to stay in the good books with Henry De Bromhead by kicking this favorite home to victory. His prospects look good on a horse who goes well fresh and has won three of four starts to date in good style. Second when resuming looked a sign of improvement and looks the one to bowl.
15:57 3:57 Cork
Asterion Forlonge
Daily Racing
Rider S O'Keefe has a good record over the bigger fences, and this horse hails from the top Mullins yard, so the combination looks good. Course and distance winner with seven wins in this type of ground, and there was a lot to like about that improver's second last time out.
15:52 3:52 Southwell
Nebras
Daily Racing
Nebras is a talented type who looks set to go places. Hollie Doyle takes the ride for a top training combination and the trip should suit nicely at this stage of the preparation.

Gordon Elliot and Sam Ewing could make a lethal combo at good odds here with Emily Love, who has placed previously at this trip and in similar ground. Hurdle debut here but ultra consistent with pace on the flat and sure to be well-schooled.
15:30 3:30 Plumpton
Havaila
Daily Racing
Gary and Josh Moore come to Plumpton with a nice type in Havaila, who looks well-placed here and especially so with the experience of Sam Twiston-Davies in the saddle. This horse is currently in fine fettle and as the lightweight in the field and in receipt of a stone in weight from the topweight, looks well in here despite the company.

David Bass takes the ride on the very consistent Alien Storm, who comes into this with a very fine form line. Course and distance winner with three wins on the course from twice as many attempts. Has won three times in similar underfoot conditions, and David Bass has won on the horse previously. Good each-way chance.

I really like the chances of Fiddler's Green upsetting the hot favorite here. Won at this time last year on this track and has followed a similar preparation (albeit more fresh this time in) through having a Kempton run beforehand. Both Kempton runs compare favorably in that last year he ran 2:34.48 and this year he ran 2:34.9, so he's close to the sort of form that saw him win next time out in 2024. When he won last year, he absolutely slayed them by 8.5 lengths with 9 stone 8 pounds, and this year he gets in two pounds lighter in the same grade, thanks to the very talented Andrea Pinna still being able to claim seven pounds off his back. For mine, that augurs well.

Might win as Oscar but has placed in four of nine starts to date, and in this company, that's a pretty good line of form. That second when fresh-up looked like an improver's effort last time out.

Backed into second favorite at 4/1 on debut and failed, but produced a better run before being put aside for close on six months. Resumes here and up to a mile with a bit of strengthening in the meantime to assist, looks the improver. Where there's smoke, there's fire.

Richard Kingscote to ride, and that should be a big assist. Trainer and rider have all-weather strike rates above 10%. This is a very consistent horse, rarely out of the money, and with a course record of a win and a placing from two starts here and a 100% record on the polytrack surface, looks well placed.

Charlatan was hampered last time out, and that ninth placing would best be forgiven when assessing chances of this, I feel. 16-3-7 record in this ground. Placed on the course. Callum Shepherd clicks with the horse well, as his 9-4-2 record attests. That third at Wolverhampton at penultimate run was solid. Has ability as demonstrated by winning three in a row last term and then winning first-up in current preparation. It all adds up to a better effort this time of asking.

Promising seven pound claimer up which brings the weight down to a very handy spot after a good last start win in which he carried the same as the handicap weight allocated for this event. That augurs well for chances here when you consider master trainer James Owen has gone with the apprentice option to enhance Destinado's chances.
