Evening Angles: three runners to note based on Racing Post stats
Using the Racing Post's unrivalled bank of stats, we pick out three horses to back tonight based on trainer form, RPRs and, tonight's wild card, an in-form jockey.
Trainer form
Trigger Nichol
6.40 Ffos Las
Angle: Richard Newland has a 38 per cent strike-rate over the past two weeks.
Jumped from a rating of 108 to 121 after a dominant 11-length success at Leicester in January and struggled next time when when a well-beaten sixth at Ludlow in March.
However, his trainer could not be in better form after six winners in the last fortnight and this seven-year-old remains thoroughly unexposed over fences.
Ratings
Humble Gratitude
5.50 Chester
Angle: same RPR as likely favourite but big disparity in price.
This four-year-old's last victory came in June 2018 over 7f but he does hold useful form up to as far as 1m2f.
In-form likely favourite Redarna will be a tough nut to crack, but Humble Gratitude sits level with that rival on adjusted RPRs here while a first-time visor and a lower weight will be of further benefit.
The price differential between the two could prove too substantial.
Wild card
Three Colours Red
6.10 Ffos Las
Angle: Richard Johnson has a 40 per cent strike-rate over the past two weeks.
Consistent hurdler who looked in need of chasing experience when making his debut over the larger obstacles at Southwell last month.
A drop back to 2m5f is puzzling considering he has won over 3m2f in the past, but he will doutbless come on for last time and has the considerable advantage of the red-hot Richard Johnson in the saddle.
