Lambourn: James Burn

Mr Whipped (12.50 Kempton, nap)

A novice hurdle at Kempton usually means Nicky Henderson is the man to side with and the champion trainer can strike with this well-regarded once-raced Irish point winner, who has shown bags of potential at home.

Others to follow
Kempton 1.20 Eyesopenwideawake,1.50 Duke Debarry, 2.25 Three Ways, 2.55 Maestro Royal, 3.30 Whisper, 4.00 Salto Chisco.

West Country: Tim Mitchell

Brio Conti (1.30 Carlisle, nap)

Progressed into a useful 145-rated hurdler but always considered to be a better proposition when switching his attention to fences. Reckoned to have been found an ideal opportunity to open his account.

Others to follow
Kempton 1.20 Full, 1.50 Secret Investor, 2.25 Give Me A Copper, 2.55 Bags Groove, 3.30 Clan Des Obeaux.

Newmarket: David Milnes

Tasaaboq (1.40 Southwell, nap)

Ran a great race to be second over course and distance on his penultimate start and should prosper back here after being run off his feet at Wolverhampton last time.

Others to follow
Southwell 12.40 Line Of Beauty, 1.10 Rite To Reign, 3.20 Absolutely Awesome

North: Colin Russell

Argentix (3.10 Carlisle, nap)

Ex-French seven-year-old who was a good second at Perth on his stable debut in July and, although up in the weights, is fancied to go one better this time.

Others to follow
Carlisle 1.00 Canny Style, 1.30 Shades Of Midnight, 2.05 Viserion, 2.35 Nuts Well, 3.40 Ulsterman.
Southwell 1.10 Gabrial's Star, 1.40 Ticks The Boxes, 2.15 Shearian, 3.20 Roaring Rory, 3.50 Llewellyn.

Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason

Viserion (2.05 Carlisle)

Ran to a rating in excess of 130 when winning by a wide-margin over course and distance in February and would be tough to beat off 119 if in similar form here.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Derintoher Yank (2.35 Carlisle)

Recorded a personal best when scoring over course and distance last month and Donald McCain's six-year-old thrives at this time of the year.

Longshot: Ed Quigley

Viserion (2.05 Carlisle)

Lacklustre comeback run but won on his only start over course and distance and ground will suit. Looks capable of going well off 119.
