Newmarket: David Milnes

Walk In The Sun (8.15 Kempton, nap)

Looks to have been found a decent opportunity to get off the mark at the first time of asking for Jeremy Noseda and Phoenix Thoroughbreds. The £1.3 million purchase has moved well on Long Hill of late.

Others to follow
Lingfield: 12.10 Obrigada, 1.15 Cantabro, 1.45 Desert Wind.
Kempton: 6.15 Arcadian Sea, 7.15 Rosedale Topping, 7.45 Wiff Waff, 8.45 Envisaging, 9.15 Dream Mount.

Lambourn: James Burn

Pougne Bobbi (2.40 Huntingdon, nap)

Testing conditions are important to this capable chaser, who has dropped to a mark of 133 and appears to have been found a decent opportunity to strike.

Others to follow
Doncaster: 12.50 Thomas Blossom, 1.25 Perfect Harmony, 4.10 Hidden Cargo.
Huntingdon: 1.00 Maestro Royal, 1.35 The Blues Master, 2.05 Capsy De Mee, 3.15 Protek Des Flos, 3.50 Penn Lane, 4.20 Mill Green.
Kempton: 7.15 Bill Cody, 8.15 Ghost Serge, 8.45 Blazed.
Lingfield 12.40 Zapateado, 3.30 Lady Morel, 4.00 Attain.

North: Colin Russell

Blakerigg (12.50 Doncaster, nap)

Still a maiden, but made an encouraging debut over fences when fifth at Kelso in November. Today's longer trip will suit and off a 4lb lower mark is fancied to get off the mark this time.

Others to follow
Doncaster: 1.25 That's Life, 1.55 Mount Mews, 2.30 Bambys Boy, 3.05 Captain Mowbray, 3.40 Fit For Fifty, 4.10 Little Bruce.
Huntingdon: 2.05 Bertie Blake.
Kempton: 5.45 Roubles, 6.15 Pegi Browne.
Lingfield: 12.10 Keynote, 12.40 Bungee Jump, 3.30 Shelneverwalkalone, 4.00 Pastoral Music.

West Country: Tim Mitchell

One Of Us (4.10 Doncaster, nap)

Game effort from the front when opening his account over hurdles at Ascot last time. More expected and fancied to defy the 4lb rise with his confidence on a high.

Others to follow
Doncaster: 1.55 Wotzizname.
Huntingdon: 2.40 Allee Bleue.

Longshot: Ed Quigley

Blakerigg (12.50 Doncaster)

Hasn't set the world alight so far, but has claims off 96 stepping back up in trip on his second chase start.

Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason

Peppay Le Pugh (3.40 Doncaster, nap)

Still seeking a first win, but on a good mark at present and shaped like his turn could be near when chasing home a progressive winner in a big field at Warwick earlier this month.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Perfect Harmony (1.25 Doncaster)

Has shown promise in both starts over hurdles and Alan King's six-year-old can supplement his earlier bumper success.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

Alcatraz (6.30 Dundalk)

The Richard O’Brien-trained six-year-old can prove the pick in the 1m handicap following his most recent effort over the course a week ago when he was slowly away before running on well for third over seven furlongs. He gets the vote to score under Wayne Lordan.


Raceform Interactive Nugget

Since 2010 Barry Geraghty is 21/45 when riding for Nicky Henderson at Huntingdon (strike-rate 47%; +£7.26 to £1 level stakes). He visits the Cambridgeshire track for just one mount – Protek Des Flos at 3.15.
