Down Royal

1.00 Cogryhill

4.25 Tombstone

Uttoxeter

1.15 Onefitzall

1.50 En Passe

3.00 There is not much to choose between Bristol De Mai and Garde la Victoire. Preference is for the former who gets a weight allowance.

Bangor

2.00 Two Taffs

Cheltenham

2.10 Boondooma seems to handle any ground and is relatively unexposed. I am hoping he will give us a run for our money.

5.40 High Bridge is my selection for this bumper.

Kelso

1.55 Big River

Cheltenham

2.10 Casual Approach is going for a hat trick after wins at Limerick and Navan. Deserves his chance here and is preferred to Laurium. Richard Johnson takes the ride.

3.55 A Good Skin is a course winner and looks to have scope for improvement.

4.30 Drumlee Sunset is my selection in this. He won an Exeter bumper last season and looks the type do win more races.

Fontwell

2.25 Board of Trade won both his bumpers and looks a decent prospect. He is the selection here although Mr Mix is a probable danger.

Ffos Las

5.30 Song of the night

Carlisle

3.15 Relic Rock

3.50 Shantou Village

Uttoxeter

2.55 Board of Trade

Punchestown

5.35 Gunnery Sargent

Wetherby

2.40 The Grey Taylor

Worcester

2.20 Free of Charge

2.50 Be On Time

Huntingdon

2.10 I will put up Norse Light and Breaking Bits as a couple of sporting each way bets in this handicap hurdle.

4.40 Baratineur won a couple of bumpers in France and could do well over hurdles.

Chepstow

2.15 Adrien Du Pont

2.45 Beast of Burden
