Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason

Potterman(1.00 Newbury, nap)

Landed a Huntingdon bumper in May and shaped like a certain future hurdle winner when third at Kempton last month. This looks a good opportunity.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Lacan(6.10 Kempton)

Appreciated the decent pace when scoring over course and distance seven weeks ago and Brett Johnson's six-year-old can follow up off a 5lb higher mark.

Longshot: Ed Quigley

Exmoor Mist (2.40 Newbury)

Out of sorts lately, but this course-and-distance winner will enjoy the ground and can cash in off a declining handicap mark.>> There are no tips from Ireland today
