Well-regarded Divine Image stands out at Chelmsford
Newmarket: David Milnes
Divine Image (5.45 Chelmsford, nap)
The daughter of Scat Daddy is well regarded at Moulton Paddocks and has a good draw on her belated debut. The youngster has plenty of experience on Polytrack at home.
Others to follow
Chelmsford 6.45 Calling Out, 7.15 Midnightly, 7.45 Needs To Be Seen.
North: Richard Young
Normal Equilibrium (7.15 Chelmsford, nap)
Has dropped to a good mark and ran well from a poor draw when a close sixth at Wolverhampton after a short break last time. Much better berthed here and this tactically versatile sort is fancied to return to winning ways.
Others to follow
Chelmsford 5.15 Cognac Blue, 6.15 Space War, 6.45 Contrast, 8.15 Tidal Surge, 8.45 Moretti.
Newcastle 12.10 Lastin' Memories, 12.40 Herecomesnelson, 1.15 Highland Hunter, 1.45 Reivers Lad, 2.20 Choochoobugaloo, 2.55 Blakerigg, 3.25 All Hail Caesar.
Lambourn: James Burn
Birchdale (12.50 Warwick, nap)
Barry Geraghty's only mount of the day is held in high regard by in-form champion trainer Nicky Henderson and won his point in some style. This looks a good starting spot for his rules career, which promises plenty.
Others to follow
Chelmsford 5.15 Pretty Eyes, 5.45 Breakfast Time.
Taunton 12.35 Genius, 2.10 Mahlermade, 2.45 Don't Ask, 3.15 Ballywood.
Warwick 1.25 Belle Empress, 3.35 Versatility.
West Country: Tim Mitchell
Bang On (2.45 Taunton, nap)
Didn’t have to improve on a promising debut over hurdles to open his account here last time but shaped as though this step up in trip would suit. Stable in cracking form and a bold bid is expected off a workable mark.
Others to follow
Taunton 12.35 Southfield Stone, 1.05 Birds Of Prey, 1.35 Mead Vale, 2.10 Roll The Dough, 3.15 Capeland, 3.50 Georgina Joy.
Warwick 12.15 Teaser, 12.50 Samburu Shujaa, 1.55 Barbrook Star, 2.30 Druid's Folly, 3.05 Hoke Colburn, 3.35 Green Dolphin.
Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason
Highland Hunter (1.15 Newcastle, nap)
Kelso bumper winner who created a good impression when making a winning hurdling debut at Ayr. Bulk of his penalty negated by his jockey's 5lb claim.
Topspeed: Dave Edwards
Barbrook Star (1.55 Warwick, nap)
Drew a blank in bumpers and over hurdles but made a pleasing start to his chasing career at Chepstow and can finally shed his maiden tag.
Longshot: Olly Eden
Black Buble (2.30 Warwick, nap)
Recent form figures don't inspire much confidence but was poorly placed over an inadequate 2m last time when well backed. Tony Carroll's gelding should improve for this step up in trip, will appreciate the relatively quick conditions and can be competitive with Harry Stock claiming a handy 5lb.
Ireland: Brian Sheerin
Seskin Flyer (3.10 Tramore, nap)
Usually runs well at this venue and comes here in good form.
The Raceform Interactive nugget
Michael Scudamore has figures of 15UP111213 with his runners at Newcastle in the last three years, improving to 1UP1113 in chases (+£10.20 to £1 stakes). Newtown Lad makes the 275-mile trip from Herefordshire for the 2m7½f handicap at 2.55.
