Our experts in Britain and Ireland reveal their top tip

Newmarket: David Milnes

Maybe Today (1.25 Lingfield, nap)

The daughter of Cacique is fancied to end a frustrating sequence after running into subsequent winner Redicean at Wolverhampton last time. The four-year-old is fitted with cheekpieces for the first time and has since moved well on the Al Bahathri.

North: Colin Russell

Ubaltique (3.45 Haydock, nap)

Unseated his rider early on the track last time, but otherwise has a fine record over course and distance and is expected to make a bold bid to win this race for the fourth year in succession.

Lambourn: James Burn

Redicean (2.00 Lingfield, nap)

Five-year-old has flourished back on the Flat, winning his last two and the hat-trick appears within reach despite an 8lb rise. He could easily have more to offer in this code.

West Country: Andrew King

Silver Quay (1.05 Taunton, nap)

Yet to score over hurdles but shaped well last time and the step back up in trip should enable him to get his head in front.

Others to follow
Ascot 12.40 Zafar, 1.15 Ecu De La Noverie, 1.50 If You Say Run, 3.00 Jerrysback, 3.35 Diego Du Charmil, 4.05 Russian Hawk

Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason

Unison (2.15 Taunton)

Dual course winner who shaped as if the step up to this trip could suit when chasing home a well handicapped rival at Kempton on Boxing Day.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Black Medick (7.15 Wolverhampton)

Had a bit in hand at Lingfield ten days ago and a 3lb rise from the handicapper may not be enough to prevent further rewards.

Longshot: Olly Eden

Colonial Dreams (2.25 Ascot)

Course and distance winner who travelled well before tiring on return from a break last time out. Having been eased 2lb and the slight drop in trip looking a positive, he could outrun his price for last year's winning trainer.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

Ronald Pump (1.35 Navan)

The Matthew Smith-trained six-year-old has a 13lb hike in the ratings to deal with here but can complete a hat-trick following wins over a 2m4f trip at Cork and over 3m at Fairyhouse. Paul Townend, who rode him last time, is again on board.
