A top trainer who has won with seven of his last eight runners and an expensive Amo Racing colt to note - Monday's punting pointers

Punting pointers for Monday's meetings

Lingfield: Amo's Diablo Rojo catches the eye 

Amo Racing's Diablo Rojo is an intriguing runner in the 6f novice (4.17) on his first start since finishing sixth in the Group 3 Acomb Stakes at York last August.

The Pinatubo colt, who cost 325,000gns as a yearling, won well on his debut at Redcar before shaping with promise at York behind winner The Lion In Winter.

The Raphael Freire-trained Diablo Rojo returns from seven months off in a tongue-tie having undergone wind surgery and the market should act as a guide to his prospects on his all-weather debut.

Wincanton: super Snowden goes for more with Legends Ryde

Jamie Snowden is enjoying a remarkable run of form, having had seven winners from his last eight runners. All of his last ten runners have finished in the first three and he bids to keep the red-hot streak going with Legends Ryde in the 3m1f mares' handicap chase (4.00).

Legends Ryde was off the track for more than two years after refusing to race in a cross-country chase at Cheltenham's 2023 Trials day before she finished fourth of five at Taunton last month.

The ten-year-old meets Space Voyage, the sole rival she beat on that occasion by five and a half lengths, on 5lb better terms here as the latter scored by 15 lengths at Market Rasen on her next outing.

Snowden said: "She was a very good mare in her day but had a bit of an issue, so we put her in foal and she had two years off. She was fourth on her comeback, when she looked a bit rusty, but she's progressed from that.

"We've had a wonderful week with seven winners from our last eight runners, and the one that got away finished second."

Wolverhampton: Ash Wednesday on a roll for Main

The prolific Ash Wednesday, winner of four of his last five starts, heads a long list of course specialists going for the 7f handicap (7.00).

Three of those victories in that hot streak since the turn of the year came over course and distance, including last week's success for which he carries a 5lb penalty.

The Heather Main-trained four-year-old is far from the only Wolverhampton wonder in the field as Harbour Vision (eight wins), Chifa (five), Thapa Vc (four), City Cyclone (three) and Bobby Joe Leg (three) are also multiple track winners.
