Sedgefield Placepot picks: Paul Kealy has a pair of bankers to start and finish

Reasonable fields and plenty of handicaps make Sedgefield the clear choice for a Placepot perm, and we should be able to bank in the opener (12.20), the only non-handicap in the bet.

will take plenty through with him, but he has been placed in two better races than this in Ireland and looks more solid than bumper winner Betty Baloo, who has been a bit disappointing over hurdles.

In the next (12.50) is quite a strong fancy, but with only seven runners it's best not to take too much of a chance, so , who shaped nicely on his chase debut, goes in too.

In the next (1.20) almost certainly has more to offer, but I do quite like the chances of each-way against her, so those two will do.

Leg four (1.50) is wide open, but always tends to run his race without winning and is entitled to come on for her first run since a break and a wind op.

In the next (2.20) hat-trick-seekers Galileo Silver and Dr Sanderson might find things tougher off their new marks, and both and are opponents with good claims.

That just leaves a final leg (2.50) in which the Venetia Williams-trained, last-time-out winner looks a solid jolly.

Ten of the trainer's 14 career runners at Sedgefield have finished in the first two.
