Doncaster
12.40 Habbie Simpson has failed to complete on his 2 starts over fences and it might be best to side with Prince of Pirates making his chase bow after winning a Kempton bumper and a maiden hurdle at Cheltenham.
1.45 Lively Baron was behind Harry the Viking here earlier this month but now gets a big pull at the weights.
2.20 A Bridge To Far was 2nd to subsequent winner Laterly at Aintree and is a tough consistent sort.
Kelso
12.00 Quel Elite returned from a lengthy absence to finish 2nd to Dark Glacier at Wetherby and should be all the better for that outing.
12.30 Only 3 runners but all have recorded wins over fences recently. Lie Forrit would be my selection but Bold Sir Brian looks a big threat.
1.00 Next to Nowhere is an outsider with a chance here.
Leopardstown
12.25 Glam Gerry won here over hurdles and has done enough over fences to suggest he can be competitive in this.
12.55 This could be between Hidden Cyclone and Shot from the Hip. Both are exciting prospects but I would just slightly favour Hidden Cyclone.
1.55 Moon Dice and Unaccompanied are respected but Thousand Stars looks the one to beat.
3.35 The selection here is Wandering Aengus.
Limerick
12.35 Folsom Blue was a fast finishing 2nd at Thurles and the 3rd horse has won since.
