Sweetspots: Sir Ox fancied to prove too strong at Southwell

Love The Leader (1.00) reappears at Taunton six days after scoring at Fontwell. This could be a good sign as his in-form trainer Johnny Farrelly has a 37 per cent strike-rate when turning out runners who have won in the previous seven days.

Nicky Henderson boasts a 31 per cent strike-rate at Ludlow and an even better 33 per cent record with debutants at the track. Jillythejet (1.20) starts out for the trainer at the Shropshire course.

Robert Cowell and Luke Morris are worth following when teaming up at Southwell. They have a 44 per cent strike-rate on the Fibresand and combine with Sir Ox (2.15) in the 6f nursery.
