Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Based on the summary, the horse that is most likely to do well is 11/1 Ilot De L'isle. The horse has had success in both bumpers and hurdles and is making a debut for a new yard, which could potentially unlock more potential. Additionally, the step up in trip is expected to suit the horse's running style.

KANSAS DU BERLAIS was an emphatic winner over an extended 2m1f at this track last month and, even though he has to shoulder a 7lb penalty for that success, he receives a four-year-old allowance and is taken to go in again. Gitche Gumee is feared most for powerful connections, while Ilot De L'isle is another to bear in mind returning from a short break.

KANSAS DU BERLAIS got firmly back on track under a change of tactics when successful here last month and, with the longer trip promising to suit, he's selected to follow up for his in-form stable. Gitche Gumee and French-recruit Ilot de L'Isle look the obvious threats.

Gitche Gumee is respected but preference is for KANSAS DU BERLAIS, who got off the mark with a dominant display here last month.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, 11/1 Dazzling Dove seems like the most likely horse to do well, as she has made a positive start for new connections and finished second in a handicap hurdle race. 8.5/1 Filanderer may also have potential based on his promising debut but poor recent form. The rest of the horses seem to have either inconsistent or poor recent form, making them less likely to perform well.

Runner-up on his last two starts, MICKYH is fancied to go one better here and could well improve back up in trip. Off the same mark as his latest run over 2m at Plumpton and with jockey Caoilin Quinn knocking 5lb off the gelding's back, he makes plenty of appeal. Dazzling Dove has been eased in distance following a good second over an extended 2m4f at Southwell last month, and is noted, while the class-dropping Fanfaron Dino is another to consider.

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and DAZZLING DOVE is taken to gain a deserved breakthrough success on the back of her good Southwell second. Plumpton runner-up Mickyh is next on the list while Fanfaron Dino is also weighted to have a say if back on his A-game.

Most of these have plenty to prove but DAZZLING DOVE made a bold bid at Southwell last month and is a big player off an unchanged mark.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Based on the summary, it is likely that 0.44/1 Hell Red will do well as he has had a successful past in small-field chases and has been recently refreshed after a 6-month absence. While 1.75/1 Ikarak is considered to be fairly useful and has potential to progress, there is no clear indication of him outperforming 0.44/1 Hell Red in this scenario.

With just the five heading to post for this contest, it could pay to side with the grade-dropping HUDSON DE GRUGY, who was a game winner of a premier handicap at Sandown on his latest outing last month. He has gone up 3lb for that success, but that may not be enough to stop him following up here. Ikarak secured a facile success in France when last seen in December and is interesting, along with Hell Red.

A case can be made for all of these but WEWILLGOWITHPLANB easily got off the mark on his first go over fences here for Richard Bandey and now reverts to this sphere after a solid third over hurdles. He looks to have more to offer so gets the vote ahead of recent Sandown scorer Hudson de Grugy, although the returning Hell Red and Milton Harris' new recruit Ikarak need factoring in too.

This looks to lie between WEWILLGOWITHPLANB and Hudson De Grugy, with the former getting a narrow vote.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

2.75/1 Mullinaree seems like the strongest contender based on recent form, equipment change, and only a small increase in weight.

This is a slight drop in class for PEARLY ISLAND and he is taken to stamp his authority under top weight. The Lucy Wadham-trained gelding impressed when he won over course and distance on his penultimate start and, having also previously tasted success under Eddie Edge, who claims 10lb in the plate, there is a lot to like about his chance. Ike Sport is holding his form well and also enters calculations, while Mullinaree is respected too.

The vote goes to IKE SPORT, who has raised his game since returning from a break and there's a good chance that this 5-y-o has more to offer. Mullinaree gained his breakthrough success over C&D last month and is feared most ahead of Fourofakind.

Preference is for the lightly raced 7yo MULLINAREE (nap), who got off the mark with a brave win over C&D last month.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

3/1 The Wise Traveller is likely to do well based on the summary.

Dear Ralphy had the race at his mercy when he stumbled and fell after the final obstacle at Plumpton last time, and can be given another chance. However, preference is for ROYAL LAKE, who showed a big improvement after he was reportedly treated for stomach ulcers before winning over 2m6f here last month. A 4lb higher mark isn't insurmountable. The Wise Traveller is another to consider.

ROYAL LAKE cashed in on a much-reduced mark when staying on well to run down an upwardly-mobile youngster here 17 days ago, so he makes plenty of appeal from only 4 lb higher. Dear Ralphy was set to make a winning handicap debut before falling 2 out at Plumpton recently and is an obvious threat from the same mark if none the worse. Handicap-debutante For Gina is another to bear in mind after catching the eye on her most recent outing.

An interesting race in which the vote goes to DEAR RALPHY, who was travelling well in a clear lead when he fell two out at Plumpton.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, 3.33/1 Jigginstown King seems to be the most promising contender. He ran his best race yet in a maiden hurdle in February, and despite a lackluster performance over fences a month later, he's dropped in weight and is back down in trip. The other horses have either been out of form or have yet to show much potential in this sphere.

Jigginstown King has been cut some slack by the handicapper having been dropped 5lb for his fourth-placed finish over 3m1f at Hereford last month, and he's not discounted on this drop in distance. A chance, however, is taken on handicap/chase debutant DOCTOR FOLEY. Anthony Honeyball's gelding starts off in this sphere off a low mark and may come alive now tackling the larger obstacles. Who Is That makes most appeal of the remainder.

Several of these arrive with something to prove but JIGGINSTOWN KING shaped better than the distance beaten suggested at Hereford 4 weeks ago so, having been dropped 5 lb on the back of that effort, Oliver Signy's charge gets the tentative nod. Doctor Foley was placed in an Irish point so he may emerge as the main danger on chasing debut, ahead of Who Is That.

It might be worth siding with the unexposed DOCTOR FOLEY, who looks a possible improver upped to this trip on his handicap/chase debut.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

It is likely that 0.29/1 Secret Squirrel will do well based on the summary provided.

There was a lot to like about All Authorized's debut win over C&D earlier in the month and Gary Moore's gelding isn't taken lightly. SECRET SQUIRREL, however, just shades the vote. The son of Stimulation made his racecourse bow over an extended 2m at Taunton and had the race in the bag a long way out. He looks capable of coping with this drop in trip. King William Rufus likely has more to offer and can't be dismissed, while any market support for Solstice Saint would be interesting.

SECRET SQUIRREL looked above average when landing a race at Taunton first time up and is marginally preferred to All Authorized, who also bids to defend an unbeaten record. King William Rufus is also a serious player.

An interesting race in which Taunton winner SECRET SQUIRREL gets the vote ahead of All Authorized and King William Rufus.
