Can't Beat History made an improved performance last time and will appreciate today's better ground. He starts handicapping on a workable mark and has small each-way claims today.

Scrum Diddly has his third run after which he will be handicapped and then there should be easier opportunities. He's yet to show on the track what we see from him at home but even in this four-horse race he's likely to find the two favourites very hard to beat.

Last week Kitten's Dream continued his run of late finishes and again it was too late by a couple of lengths. He usually runs well though and if only he could banish those very sluggish starts, that finishing burst will eventually be rewarded with a win. Hopefully tonight.

Southwell is offering good prizemoney for the grade of race and that should be applauded. Far more lightly-raced than his rivals, Southwold has made a bright start to his career with a win on debut followed by a 3rd under a penalty. He is still learning his trade, wouldn't be as battle-hardened as his opponents…

Colonial Empire steps up markedly in grade but has a very handy weight. We think he will have improved for his most recent run but this is a tough race.

Twilight Glory took a huge step forward last time. I feel it is all clicking for him now and conditions today are perfect. The downside is that it's a big, competitive field but I believe he has strong each-way claims.

Cloud Dancer showed promise despite signs of greenness in a junior bumper at Cheltenham seven weeks ago. These juvenile hurdle races for NH qualified horses are a welcome innovation to the programme and we hope he can give the favourite a tough battle on jumping debut.

We won this last year with Porticello and hope that Bo Zenith can restore his reputation with a big run. Impressive on sole French start, he bombed at Sandown on stable debut but the ground was very testing that day. Hoping he can show his true ability today.

Hul Ah Bah Loo is still a maiden but is admirably consistent and is sure to find his races in time. He runs too well too often to ever get much help from the handicapper, and has run well here on most occasions. He is hard to discount if he gets a good run round…

Landlordofthestars is a big, strapping lad having his first handicapping run today. He is still a bit backward and may just need the run back from a break.

You Wear It Well was 2nd on racecourse debut last season and then won a bumper on her next start. She won on seasonal/hurdles debut and then bolted up next time out at Hexham. She then made a big step forward when runner-up to very smart  Hermes Allen in the Challow at Newbury, form which…

Since joining from Clive Cox last August, Sausolito's mark has dropped a fair way. The favourite in this 0-50 has an 8lb penalty and if Sausolito is on his game he could give the dual recent winner a run for his money.

Inneston hasn't yet matched his excellent home work with performances on the track. A beaten favourite both at Newbury and then Fontwell where a last-flight mistake proved costly, he starts handicapping on what could be a very fair mark. Hopeful.

La Rav returns after a 10-week break and has a nice draw which will be a big help. He missed the break badly last time at Lingfield having won there the time before. Clifford Lee takes over from an inexperienced apprentice and we have a good each-way chance in a wide-open affair.

Rose King went through the ring for 80k as a yearling and twice within a month at breeze-up sales last year for 70k and then at Goresbridge for just 4k! We won with a first-time starter Create here last week, but it might be asking too much for lightning to strike twice. 

Yorksea has been only lightly-raced but looked good when winning at Fontwell last time. Along with Teddy Blue, he forms a decent dual challenge in a race we've always liked to target with a progressive younger hurdler.

Daphne May has been running over 6f and 7f since joining the stable and her mark has dropped from 60 to 48 as she has been lacking the pace to get involved. She had form over further before joining us and I hope going up to a mile is sufficient for her to make the…

Love Is Golden, our more experienced runner in this, had a flat rating of 85 with Charlie and Mark Johnston. He won four of his races and stayed 1m4f well, so should do well over hurdles. Looking for a positive start.

Stormingin has reached the veteran stage but still retains a little ability. He was no match for our Big Jimbo at Kempton last week but this low-grade amateur riders' race might be more to his liking. Place chances hopefully.

Engrave has come out of her win at Newcastle in great shape. That was a bonus as she had never previously won anywhere other than at Chelmsford. She is up in grade for her return "home" tonight but has a feather weight and few of the opposition have been running to form. Also, the one…
