Back Prince of Pilates 30pts at 3.0-Not matched
405 Ascot-Cool Friend is the obvious fav while Fix the rib although inconsistent has got a rating that would put it right there but Insider Dealer has been running consistently all season and I hope the slight drop in trip might just get it a deserved success.

5.0 Stratford-Time for Spring achieved a good rating last time when just finding the trip too far,the slight drop in trip should see him get somehwere near last season best.Pickamus is the danger.
Back Time for Spring 19pts at 3.0-2nd(-19pts)Well backed but just wasnt good enough.
410 Uttoxeter-Rory Boy is unexposed over this trip while Total Rebellion and Godsmejudge are respected but have to prove this ground is what they want but Fentara is consistent,likes the ground and the trip,it must go well.
Back Fentara 12pts at 5.0-UP(-12pts)Looked like taking a big hand in the finish but weakened badly,looked like it didnt stay.
355 Stratford-Knight in Purple has a good chance and Laterly is also respected but Trip the light is overpriced and must run well.
Back Trip the Light 5pts at 11.0-UP(-5pts)(DT-36pts)
545 Uttoxeter-This looks at the mercy of North Stack,Its Like that is next best in the market but appears to always run well below form on its first run back after a break.

310 Hexham-Unless Majestic Mayhem comes back to life then this looks to be between Zefooha and Jackson Cage.Been support this morning for the former and he is much respected but Jackson Cage looks to have more potential.It does need a little drift to be matched though.
Back Jackson Cage 11pts at 4.3-UP-Not matched
410 Hexham-Good little race for the grade,Sir Tamburlane is fav and interestingly favours different conditions to lately today ,so it can be assumed its thought capable of better,however I like a couple at bigger prices.La Pantera Rosa has the last 3 times its encountered todays conditions of trip and ground,achieved a rating of at least 6lb above its hcp rating,so it must go well.Esme rides A gaine has been putting up solid ratings and will prefer todays faster ground.*Non runner in this race so have revised prices*

Back Silver Andonis 10pts at 5.5-Won(+45pts)

Back Beauchamp Castle 11pts at 5.0-2nd(-11pts)Anyone who saw it will know it should have won but the horse was somehow allowed to roll in behind the winner.

250 Ayr-Stormion did win yesterday and that is obviously a concern but if it can run close to the rating it achieved then it should be too good for Right Enough.
Back Stormion 14pts at 4.5-2nd(-14pts)Really well backed into 3.0 but couldnt peg back the back to form winner.
4.0 Ayr-The Thirsty Bricky achieved a clear top rating last week and anything close to it should be good enough.Prosecco and Nelson Du Ronceray are the dangers.

Back Heathcote 4pts at 17.0-UP(-4pts)
450 Leicester-A race that revolves around Noble Witness,it achieved easily the best rating last time but to me,it appears to need good ground or faster.Anything good to soft or worse and its rating is much lower.Jolly Boys outing should run well and they are a couple of chasing debutants as well but once again Intothejungle cant go unbacked at its current price.
Back Intothejungle 5pts at 15.0-4th(-5pts)Halfway round,this looked a great call with Noble Witness seemingly going nowhere and Intothejungle jumping fantastic out in front.Somehow the fav came home really strong and Intothejungle giving way at the final fence to finish fourth.(-31pts)
