Brave Hero (5.25 Windsor, nap)

Has had nearly two years off but Saeed Bin Suroor is an expert with this kind of horse and the chestnut has been showing up well in his recent work on the watered gallop.

Lambourn: James Burn

Plutonian (5.25 Windsor, nap)

Four-year-old is a capable sort and won at this venue last term. Has more to offer, especially over this 1m2f trip.

West Country: Andrew King

Lamb Or Cod(3.55 Cartmel, nap)

Showed enough when runner-up last time to suggest he can play a part in the finish at a course where the twists and turns should be in his favour.

Others to follow
Huntingdon 2.00 The Twisler, 2.35 Pension Madness, 3.45 The Wicket Chicken, 4.20 Purple 'N Gold.
Leicester 2.55 Airshow, 4.40 Sir Plato.

North: Colin Russell

Burgonet(4.05 Leicester, nap)

Progressive filly who was off the mark at Newmarket last time. Steps up in trip for her handicap debut and is fancied to follow up.

Others to follow
Cartmel 2.10 The Steward, 2.45 Shanaway, 3.20 Morning Royalty, 3.55 Seldom Inn, 4.30 Mixboy, 5.05 Brave Spartacus, 5.40 Wizadora.

Racing Post Ratings: Simon Turner

Koditime(4.50 Windsor)

Highly tried last year and showed why when quite a taking winner in a very competitive race at the Dante meeting. A 4lb rise seems lenient and is expected to win again.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Scottish Summit(4.45 Redcar)

Recorded a personal best when breaking his duck in convincing style at Nottingham earlier this month and may still be ahead of his new mark.

Longshot: Samuel King

Figeac(3.50 Chelmsford)

Nick Littmoden's horse will be fit from his recent spell over hurdles and should appreciate this return to the Flat. He put up a good effort at Kempton back in March and can go well at a double-figure price.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

Lareena (6.30 Ballinrobe)

A bad blunder at the final hurdle probably cost the Willie Mullins-trained mare victory in a valuable handicap at Killarney 15 days ago. Back against her own sex here, she makes plenty of appeal and gets the vote to score under David Mullins.


The Raceform Interactive nugget

The geldingEiri Na Casca has impressive form figures of 121 when racing at Ballinrobe, so he rates a solid each-way bet on his return to that track in the competitive looking 7.30.
