Newmarket: David Milnes

Dawn Delight (6.45 Newcastle, nap)

Had a tough task when trying to defy a penalty against the useful Tiger Eye over 7f at Wolverhampton last time. Hugo Palmer's hope may prosper back in trip.

Newcastle 5.45 Orchid Star

North: Colin Russell

Ginger Jam (7.15 Newcastle, nap)

Unexposed four-year-old who made a successful handicap and all-weather debut when scoring in good style over course and distance last time. Scope for further improvement and can follow up here.

Lambourn: Nicholas Deacon

Darius Des Bois (4.05 Sandown, nap)

Has run two sound races over fences so far and appeared in need of a return to this more demanding trip when finishing well over 2m4f here on his latest start. Will handle the soft ground well and looks the sort to improve.

Others to follow
Sandown 2.25 Papagana, 3.30 Elusive Belle
Fakenham 2.45 Pistol Whipped, 3.20 Jurby
Lingfield 2.00 Mood For Mischief, 3.10 Shanghai Grace

Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason

Briac (12.50 Sandown)

Landed this race last year but now higher in the handicap, though has looked an improved performer for his current yard when scoring on his last couple of starts and can win again.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Darius Des Bois (4.05 Sandown)

Finished strongly when runner-up here six weeks ago and the return to 3m should help him break his duck over fences.

Longshot: David Revers

Sark (4.50 Lingfield)

Dropped 2lb since running a respectable race at Kempton last month and remains well handicapped. Trainer David Evans also boasts a 25 per cent strike-rate at the course this year.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

View The Bay (7.00 Dundalk)

Less exposed than most of her rivals in this 6f handicap, the Andy Slattery-trained four-year-old is two from five at this track. Up 7lb for her success two weeks ago, she can follow up under claimer Ben Coen.
