Handicappers' nap
Manor Park(12.40 Warwick)
Has yet to translate the ability he showed on the level to hurdles but has slipped to a generous mark in what looks a very ordinary race.

West Country nap
Harry Senior (2.25 Warwick)
Progressive young hurdler who can make the most of his first opportunity in Graded company.
Andrew King
Newmarket nap
Almufti (5.45 Chelmsford)
Hugo Palmer's classy type returned to form with a stylish win at Lingfield over the festive period and is expected to follow up.
David Milnes
Eyecatcher
Stay Classy (2.00 Lingfield)
Arrives in good form and the slight drop in trip and return to this track is in her favour.

Irish angle
Thunder Down Under (1.35 Fairyhouse)
Staying on third over almost 2m5f on his handicap debut at Leopardstown last month, the Gordon Elliott-trained six-year-old gets the vote to land this 3m handicap hurdle.
Tony O'Hehir
Ace tipster
Katpoli (2.15 Wetherby)
Looked good at Southwell and his run at Taunton since is readily excused. More progressive than these rivals.
Keith Melrose
Speed figures
Larkbarrow Lad (2.40 Kempton)
Progessive low-mileage seven-year-old who may still be ahead of his mark.
Dave Edwards
Spotlight nap
The Conditional (3.00 Warwick)
Ran well when second in the Ladbrokes Trophy and has more to offer for his new stable. He is a handicapper to follow.

Dark horse
Whatsupwithyou (2.25 Warwick)
Convincing winner of a maiden hurdle at Ascot when unfancied in the market. He won with authority and has plenty of scope for improvement.
David Revers
Must-have stat of the day
Dromore Lad has to be of interest in the 1.35 at Fairyhouse as he is 3-3 at that venue compared to 1-13 elsewhere. He looks to land this race for the second time having won it two years ago.
