Zephyros Bleu can provide some cheer for Whittington

West Country Andrew King

Lord Ballim (4.25 Carlisle, nap)

Won over course and distance last time and makes a return trip from Devon to Cumbria in a bid to follow up.

Others to follow
Ffos Las 2.00 Citrus, 3.35 Mondello, 4.45 Abracadabra Sivola.

Lambourn James Burn

Zephyros Bleu (4.45 Ffos Las, nap)

Harry Whittington has just started having runners again after a quiet spell and can hopefully have something to cheer with this seven-year-old, a course-and-distance winner at the track in December.

Others to follow
Ffos Las 3.00 Proud Times, 5.15 Flemenskill.

North Colin Russell

Little Bruce (3.20 Carlisle, nap)

Has been in good form this winter with two wins from his last three starts. Up in the weights, but conditions suit and fancied to give another good account.

Others to follow
Carlisle 2.15 Fattsota, 2.45 The Dutchman, 3.55 Cultram Abbey, 4.25 Hartside, 5.00 Carlton Ryan.

Racing Post Ratings Steve Mason

Get In Pat (4.10 Ffos Las, nap)

Posted a career-best effort when winning over course and distance earlier this month and every chance of going in again off a 5lb higher mark.

Topspeed Dave Edwards

Magic Dancer (3.20 Carlisle, nap)

An encouraging third on his belated reappearance at Kempton recently, Charlie Longsdon's five-year-old is entitled to improve and can open his account over hurdles.

Longshot Ed Quigley

Bob Ford (4.45 Ffos Las)

Dour stayer who will enjoy trip, track and ground and is capable off this mark.

Ireland Tony O'Hehir

Fit To Be Tied (1.50 Limerick)

A lightly raced five-year-old, he has been progressing with each run and will appreciate stepping up in trip. A full-brother to Oscar Time, who was placed in both the Irish and Aintree Grand Nationals, he should cope with the likely testing conditions and open his account.
