The Punt Daily: Tom Collins with two to follow on Friday

BANKER

Petite Jack(3.50 Lingfield)

Neil King's six-year-old is a regular here and notched his fourth course-and-distance victory when last seen seven days ago, travelling well in behind the pace before sprinting away from his rivals in easy fashion. That was the first time that James Doyle had ridden him and it's no surprise to see him back aboard given the ease of that success. He's 1lb worse off at the weights under a penalty here but that shouldn't make too much difference as his class can see him come home in front again.

DARK HORSE

Zanza (4.30 Newbury)

I was close to selecting Nube Negra here but decided to stick with my guns and tip Zanza, who was given no chance when last seen in the Betfair Hurdle and may well be overlooked in the market. Held up last time, he pulled hard early, made a couple of jumping mistakes due to being unsighted and was chopped off at the bend. You can put a line through that effort and based on his previous victory at Taunton when he easily beat subsequent scorer Birds Of Prey, he has to be of interest off this mark.
