Matt Brocklebank had a winner on Monday and he's back in the tipping hotseat for the Tuesday cards.

GREAT MATES - 16:45 Nottingham (NAP)
This has the look of quite a competitive little fillies' handicap but victory can go the way of the sole four-year-old in the field, GREAT MATES. The youngsters may have a touch more potential on the face of it but the selection has only raced twice for new trainer Marco Botti and her improvement from Newmarket last month to the win at Yarmouth 19 days ago was quite stark. She was very well backed on the day there and, having only gone up 3lb in the ratings which looks more than fair, the follow-up mission looks perfectly possible.
DARK ROSA - 18:30 Wolverhampton
DARK ROSA claimed her first success for Georgina Nicholls from exactly the same mark (66) over a similar trip here at Wolverhampton back in November and the Dark Angel filly is worth an interest returned to that venue on Tuesday. She's not been in brilliant form on the turf of late but definitely showed more spark when third from off the pace over the bare mile at Salisbury last month. She's gone well fresh in the past and has had a short break so could be able to mount a late bid here providing they go a decent gallop early on.
MOUNTBATTEN - 20:51 Salisbury
MOUNTBATTEN deserves another chance after a disappointing run when last of four at Yarmouth on June 26. That effort under a penalty arguably came soon enough on the back of his seasonal debut success over a mile and a half at Southwell eight days earlier and, while effectively running off a 4lb higher mark here, there's surely more to come from the three-year-old. Sir Mark Prescott has given him a break and now fits blinkers so it would be no shock to see the son of Japan back on an upward curve, his pedigree suggesting he should have no issues with this staying trip.
Wednesday selections

GRESSINGTON - 15:10 Catterick (NAP)
His form figures are uninspiring but there are reasons to take a chance on GRESSINGTON.
He hinted at a revival dropped into this grade in a visor for the first-time last week, running on into fourth in a similar race having fleetingly been short of room. He’s down to a career low mark, six lower than his last winning one, and trainer Katie Scott has been back among the winners of late.
BACK TO CALI - 17:05 Worcester
He went desperately close to making a winning start for the Skelton team at Stratford last time and BACK TO CALI can make amends from a four pounds higher perch.
Sent off a very well backed favourite, he made progress from the rear but after a mistake two out, found the post coming a stride too early when beaten a head by Slack Alice. He looks the sort to run up a sequence or the new team.
SEMPER FEMINA - 19:20 Leicester
She was well below form at Goodwood last time but a hard race a week earlier seemed to take a toll and freshend up since, SEMPER FEMINA is fancied to get back on track.
Richard Hannon’s team are going well right now, the selection ran a race full of promise when second on handicap debut at the same track two starts ago and that represents strong form.
KAORI - 20:10 Lingfield
Her best form is at seven furlongs and returned to the trip for the first time in a handicap, KAORI gets the vote.
George Boughey’s charge was third from this mark over a mile at Yarmouth last time when going off a big price. She should be cherry ripe now after two runs this year, drops back into a 0-75 and has more to offer.
