Midnight Tune (1.55 Kempton, nap)

A Midnight Legend mare who has taken her time to come to hand but won in the manner of an improving horse at Wincanton last time when making all. Fancied to make full use of her light weight and go in again with Sam Twiston-Davies in the saddle.

Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason

On The Road (1.35 Chepstow, nap)

Prolific mud-lover who recorded RPRs upwards of 130 over fences last season and who shaped like he can win off his current hurdle mark of 123 when finishing a good second on last month's Ffos Las reappearance.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Sussex Ranger (2.10 Chepstow)

A convincing winner of both starts over hurdles, Gary Moore's hat-trick-seeking juvenile can take this step up in class in his stride.

Longshot: Ed Quigley

Anibale Fly (3.00 Leopardstown)

He will appreciate the return to 3m and has to be feared in a handicap off 148 with cut in the ground.

Ireland: Tony O’Hehir

Ben Dundee (2.25 Leopardstown)

The Gordon Elliott-trained five-year-old, sixth in a valuable handicap at Fairyhouse on his most recent start, gets the vote to record a third win over hurdles in the two mile handicap, with Davy Russell on board.
