Chelmsford: stages valuable meeting this evening
All-weather action from Chelmsford on MondayCredit: Alan Crowhurst

Newmarket: David Milnes

Gantier (4.30 Chelmsford, nap)

Still a maiden but this son of Frankel ran well last time behind the impressive Marhaban and should get off the mark for connections at the fourth time of asking.

Others to follow
Chelmsford: 2.30 Melo Pearl, 3.30 Foreign Legion.
Wolverhampton: 7.25 Solar Park, 7.55 Alban's Dream, 8.25 Marharban.

North: Richard Young

Foxy Boy (4.00 Chelmsford, nap)

Tumbled in the weights before returning to winning ways from a wide draw in first-time blinkers at Wolverhampton last time. 5lb higher for that but fancied to follow up from better stall berth.

Others to follow
Chelmsford: 2.00 Steel Helmet, 2.30 Mr Potter,
3.00 Gone With The Wind.
Wolverhampton: 4.55 Lord Cooper, 5.55 Arcanada, 6.25 Splash Of Verve, 6.55 Street Poet, 7.55 Pink Flamingo.

Lambourn: James Burn

Hathal (5.55 Wolverhampton, nap)

Seven-year-old is a consistent sort and has a touch of class, so expect a bold bid as he aims to follow up a smooth win at the course four weeks ago.

Others to follow
Chelmsford: 3.00 Misu Pete.
Taunton: 2.15 Third Wind, 3.15 Midnight Chill, 3.45 Perfect Myth, 4.15 Fox Appeal.
Wolverhampton: 4.55 Distant Applause, 5.25 Skydiving, 7.25 Aigiarne.

West Country: Andrew King

Duhallow Gesture (3.45 Taunton, nap)

Anthony Honeyball's stable is emerging from under a cloud and this seven-year-old can make up after being a beaten favourite last time.

Others to follow
Taunton: 1.45 Southfield Stone, 2.15 My Way, 2.45 Rosemary Russet, 3.15 Spring Wolf, 4.20 Le Boizelo, 4.45 Silver Quay.

Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason

Carrigmoorna Matt (2.45 Taunton)

Looks nicely treated on the pick of his Irish form and stepped up on previous runs for his current yard when chasing home a handicap snip at Chepstow last month.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Arcanada (5.55 Wolverhampton)

Never headed in this race twelve months ago and underlined his well-being with a clear cut Lingfield victory five weeks ago.

Longshot: David Revers

Lord Cooper (4.55 Wolverhampton)

Two wins from four visits to this course and is now well handicapped, 20lb below his last winning mark. First-time blinkers may sharpen him up and he's got a handy draw to work from.

Olly Murphy has a 26 per cent strike-rate with newcomers to his stable who start at 20-1 or shorter. In the 6.25 at Wolverhampton, Vocal Heir fits the criteria.
