330 Newmarket-I feel theres too bigger a gap in the prices between Dundonell and Baltic Knight and the latter is the value.Its 3w-1p-4r over this trip and posted the best topspeed figure in this race last time when holding off a subsequent winner.It looks a progressive horse.

Dundonell had a very good season as a 2yo but was a little below par first time out this season.

Music Master could be anything although it has a lot to find.

Back Baltic Knight 12pts at 4.5 at Paddys-3rd(-12pts)The prices moved closer as the race drew near.I feel the ground speeding up cost it as it clearly got outpaced before staying on strongly.

350 Newbury-Purely on my ratings,I find it hard to believe Declaration of War is the price it is.It leaves some nice value elsewhere and I like Farhh,who has won on its seasonal debut on each of the last 3 seasons.The stable have been slow to get going but had a winner on Friday and it looks a very big price.

Cityscape looks the main danger on my figures with Beauty Parlour next.

Back Farhh 15pts at 6.0 at Ladbrokes(Accept 4.3)-Won(+67.5pts *1 N/R*)As the ratings suggested,Farhh was in a different league.(DT+55.5pts)

415 Bangor-Rime Avec Gentile and Scoglio should both go well but at a much bigger price,theres a chance Gud Day could go well.Some of its recent runs can be excused(Very soft ground and wrong trip) and back over 2mile on good ground could see it run to the ratings it showed the last time it had those conditions last Autumn.If it does then it has a massive chance.

Its ok on good to soft but anything softer would be worry.The inform trainer is 33% with his hurdlers here.

So far on my ratings,Smadynium has to improve on what its achieved so far.

Back Gud Day 6pts at 10.0 at Paddys(Accept 6.0)-2nd(-6pts)What can you say?The horse is backed all the way down to 15/8 favourite and trades at 1.05 in running,only to be nutted inside the final 50 yards.(DT+49.5pts)
