Newmarket: David Milnes

Wall Of Sapphire (1.10 Lingfield,nap)

North: Richard Young

Niven (3.00 Huntingdon, nap)

Dispelled any heavy ground concerns when bolting up on first run for yard at Hexham last month but will be happier back on a sound surface and up in trip. Booking of Richard Johnson takes the eye and fancied to follow up.

Progressive five-year-old who has finished runner up on his last two starts with the latest looking fairly useful form. If running to a similar level he is fancied to open his account.

Others to follow
Huntingdon: 1.00 Cigarisi, 2.00 Sonoftheking.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Amitie Waltz (6.15 Wolverhampton)

Successful in handicaps at Bath and Southwell last year, Richard Hughes' low mileage seven-year-old may not have finished winning yet.

Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason

Precious Bounty(1.30 Huntingdon, nap)

Showed much improved form when chasing home the decent Extra Mag at Exeter and this looks a good opportunity for him to go one better.

Longshot: David Revers

Uponastar (1.10 Lingfield)

Was doing her best work at the finish last time and this extra distance should suit on handicap debut.

Ireland: Tony O’Hehir

Snow Patch (5.00 Dundalk)

A course and distance winner in December 2017, the Darren Bunyan-trained four-year-old performed well when returning to the polytrack last month, finishing second over this trip. She gets the vote to score under Killian Leonard.
