bet365 Scottish Triumph Hurdle (Listed) 1m7½f

At €255,000, Afadil did not come cheap, but he gave a glimpse why Paul Nicholls and bloodstock agent Tom Malone shelled out that sum when winning at Taunton last month.

SPOTLIGHT TIP:  Bringbackmemories

It was never in doubt when off the mark over course and distance, and he looks to be going places

Harry Derham has made a bright start to his training career and is not sending Fidelio Vallis, whom he will know well from his Nicholls days, all the way from Lambourn for nothing.

2.10 Leopardstown
Ladbrokes Dublin Chase (Grade 1), 2m1f

After Energumene's reverse last week, there might be a vacancy for standout two-miler and his stablemate Blue Lord appears to have rock-solid credentials to step up.

2.25 Musselburgh
bet365 Scottish Supreme Novices' Hurdle 1m7½f

Champion jockey Brian Hughes is not always the star of the ITV show, but he could play a central role on the promising General Offer, who has barely put a foot wrong in his four starts under rules.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: General Officer

Has form figures of 112 over hurdles, the wins gained over course and distance; solid claims back here

Chanelle Pharma Irish Champion Hurdle (Grade 1) 2m

If there was a jumps Hall of Fame, Honeysuckle would be in and, after the first defeat of her stellar 17-race career, all eyes will be on her in something of a make-or-break date.

Tattersalls Ireland Novice Hurdle (Grade 1) 2m

Hype horses do not really come bigger than Facile Vega, whose dam Quevega was jumping royalty. He has been flawless in six races and could easily live up to his billing.
