1.10 Tycoon Prince

Sandown

1.15 Sirabad

4.05 Chef D’oeuvre

Aintree

12.45 Definite Outcome is well regarded by connections and has shown plenty of promise in his runs so far. The stable are not in great form which would be the only worry.

1.20 Caracci Apache looks the sort to do well in staying chases.

1.55 Our Kaempfer was a staying on 4^th last time over a shorter trip.

Wincanton

1.30 Arpege D’Alene

2.05 A Good Skin

3.50 Bol D’Air

Naas

3.10 Disko

Hexham

1.20 Marquis of Carabas will make a staying chaser in time but should give us a run for our money.

Musselburgh

4.00 Sand blast is the selection here.

Chepstow

2.15 Imagine the Chat

4.20 Bun Doran

Warwick

2.056 Pembra

2.40 Ballyalton

4.10 Secret Door

Exeter

2.20 This could be between Champers on Ice and Walking in the Air. Narrow preference is for Walking in the Air.

1.50 Another race where I have two fancies, Yanworth and Welsh Shadow. Yanworth is preferred.

2.50 Southfield Vic looks the one to beat.

Carlisle

1.30 Otago Trail

Huntingdon

2.55 Barters Hill

3.30 Three Musketeers

Ascot

12.40 Amidon looks an interesting prospect over fences later in the season but has an each way chance here in this handicap hurdle.

2.50 I quite like the chances of the two top weights Sign of a Victory and Jolly’s Cracked It. Once again we may see both horses to advantage over fences later.

3.25 Ned Stark looks to be on a decent mark and provided that the going isn’t too quick should go well.

3.55 Cultivator was a bit too free when 3^rd at New bury last season. It he settles better he would be hard to beat.

Ayr

1.15 Another Bill has already won twice in bumpers at this track and looks set to make a winning start to his hurdling career.

4.00 Glingerburn can land this handicap hurdle before going chasing.

Wetherby

1.25 Zeroshadesofgrey stays well and looks one to follow this season in handicap chases.

Down Royal selections

2.10 Ptit Zig

3.50 Death Duty

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
