Unexposed Mann hope has good opportunity

West Country Andrew King

Royal Village (3.00 Southwell, nap)

Won his bumper at the course and has been found a decent chance to open his account over hurdles.

Others to follow
Southwell 4.00 Pearl Royale, 4.30 Willyegolassiego.

Lambourn James Burn

Like The Sound (3.50 Lingfield, nap)

Charlie Mann is having a good season and has found an ideal opportunity for this unexposed six-year-old, who should be hard to beat.

Others to follow
Lingfield 2.20 Polly's Pursuit, 2.50 Flemcara, 3.20 Ardmayle.
Southwell 4.00 Bold Runner.
Wolverhampton 3.40 Lacan, 4.40 Siouxperhero, 5.10 Haines.

North Colin Russell

Lostock (3.10 Wolverhampton, nap)

Lightly raced three-year-old who has shown promise on both starts, but also has excuses for those defeats. There should be improvement on the cards and he is fancied to get off the mark this time.

Others to follow
Southwell 2.00 Virnon, 2.30 Urban Gale, 4.00 Mr Globetrotter, 4.30 Nicki's Nipper.
Wolverhampton 2.10 Spirit Of Wedza, 2.40 Spiraea, 3.40 Gold Flash, 4.10 Simply Me, 5.10 Mistiroc, 5.40 Specialist.

Newmarket David Milnes

Fabricate (5.10 Wolverhampton, nap)

Finished last season on a high when winning under today's jockey Adam Kirby at Leicester and is fancied to score at the first attempt on the all-weather. Michael Bell's hope is fit from mixing it with stable star Big Orange on the Al Bahathri.

Others to follow
Wolverhampton 2.40 Strictly Carter, 3.10 Anna Medici, 4.10 Lady Lydia, 4.40 Speculator, 5.40 Enfolding.

Racing Post Ratings Steve Mason

Malapie (3.30 Southwell, nap)

Lightly raced nine-year-old who was unfortunate to run into the well-treated Lady Buttons when returning from a long absence at this course in January. He is from a yard in excellent form.

Topspeed Dave Edwards

Cohesion (5.10 Wolverhampton)

Below his best last time, but David Bridgwater's French import had previously finished an eyecatching fourth on his British debut and is worth another chance.

Longshot Ed Quigley

Saucysioux (4.50 Lingfield)

Little recent form, but is lightly raced, will relish conditions, and has dropped to an attractive mark.
