Ascot
1.35 Persian Snow looks on a winnable mark.
2.10 Fairy Rath and Greywell Boy are the two I like in this handicap. Greywell Boy may have the edge at the weights and eh also seems more versatile with regards to going.
2.45 Pine Creek won twice last season and looks a progressive sort.
3.20 Buddy Bolero has some smart form over fences having finished 4 in the National Hunt Chase at Cheltenham. The talented Opening Batsman is the other one that appeals to me! He landed the Racing Plus Chase at Kempton last season.
4.20 Robinsfirth won at Wincanton in April and the form of that race looks quite strong.
Ayr
12.55 Frankies Promise has a disastrous start to his hurdling career but is worth another chance.
2.35 The consistent Green Flag can follow up his recent success at Kelso.
3.10 Big Water looks on a fair mark. He would not want conditions too testing.
Down Royal
3.05 Rolling Aces can add to his trainer’s impressive record in this race.
Wetherby
1.15 Gone Too Far looks a smart prospect and can give AP McCoy another winner.
3.00 At Fisher’s Cross comes into this race on the back of 6 straight wins.
3.35 Long Run sets the standard but at the odds I am inclined to oppose him. Unioniste and Benefficient both make some appeal.
