Newmarket: David Milnes

Muntahaa (3.35 Chester, nap)

Has been laid out to start off around here where he first shone as a three-year-old. John Gosden's five-year-old is fit from some decent work on the Limekilns.

Chelmsford: 6.10 Mr Marrakech, 7.10 Fountain Of Time, 7.40 Zaaki, 8.10 Ocean Of Love, 9.10 Zamjar.

Lambourn: James Burn

Elgin (8.40 Chelmsford, nap)

Classy hurdler who ran with credit on his Flat debut last month and should take all the beating.

Others to follow
Chelmsford: 6.10 Glendevon, 6.40 Take The Helm, 7.10 Indicia, 7.40 Macaque, 8.10 Haines.

West Country: Andrew King

Casterly Rock (5.25 Worcester, nap)

Will finally get underfoot conditions to his liking and expected to go well on his handicap debut.

North: Colin Russell

Bosham (9.10 Chelmsford, nap)

Back to form on last couple of start with wins at Wolverhampton and Lingfield. Has a fine record here and having won off higher marks in the past is fancied to complete a hat-trick.

Others to follow
Chester: 1.50 Doctor Sardonicus, 3.00 Dragons Tail, 4.05 Finoah, 4.35 Austrian School, 5.05 Dark Devil.
Chelmsford: 6.40 Qaffaal.
Huntingdon: 2.00 Hello Bertie.
Worcester: 3.20 Rock Of Leon, 3.55 Katebird.

Racing Post Ratings: Paul Curtis

Squats (6.40 Chelmsford)

Would likely have been involved in the finish of a stronger race over course and distance last September with better luck, and with valid excuses for two defeats this year can bounce back here.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Mesquite (7.10 Chelmsford)

Off the mark in a respectable time at Lingfield a month ago and looks favourably weighted on her handicap bow.

Longshot: Samuel King

Simpson (3.00 Chester)

After a good fifth on seasonal reappearance in a Listed race at Epsom, Ed Walker's charge looks suited by this drop in trip and with a plum draw in stall one can go well at a double-figure price.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

Last Encounter (7.00 Tipperary)

Held in second place by easy winner Robin Des Foret when falling at the final fence at Ballinrobe on his most recent start, the Mags Mullins-trained eight-year-old, who has some smart form over hurdles, has enough experience over fences to take the 2m7f beginners' chase.


The Raceform Interactive nugget

Ralph Beckett's last 20 runners in first-time blinkers have produced form figures of 28313312664241551211 (30% strike-rate), for a £1 level-stakes profit of £27. Smart Dart is tried in that headgear in the 6.10 at Chelmsford.
