After weekend winners for both Ben Linfoot and David Ord, Matt Brocklebank provides the best bets from around the tracks on Monday.

VEYDARI - 15:55 Hamilton (NAP)
VEYDARI makes plenty of appeal on his return from a break having undergone wind surgery since last seen on June 8. He put in a good effort over six furlongs that day and has only been nudged up 1lb in the ratings, meaning he's just a pound higher than when last successful. Dropping back to five furlongs looks an interesting move with him, especially on this track with a stiff finish, and a good prominent ride should see the four-year-old give an excellent account.
BAY OF MYTHS - 15:44 Ffos Las
BAY OF MYTHS looks one to row in with stepping up in trip again at Ffos Las. A son of New Bay, out of a Galileo mare, he's looked all about stamina since winning over 10 furlongs on debut back in May and the stop-start nature of his handicap debut effort at Thirsk (1m4f) last time didn't seem to play to his strengths. He stuck to his task quite well in the end, having been outpaced coming into the home straight, and this proper test on deep ground could be right up his street.
BEARIN UP - 16:47 Leicester
Three-year-old filly BEARIN UP could still be improving based on her latest effort, despite having already raced 16 times in her life and she should get a decent set-up here from stall two, with possible pace-maker Home Hero coming from the inside stall. Tim Easterby's runner comes here off the same mark (77) as when third to Monoceros at Haydock and getting back on some better ground won't hinder her claims at all. She's not got stacks in hand but looks a fair bet to go well with that pace scenario firmly in mind.
DISTILLATION - 18:42 Wolverhampton
DISTILLATION looked a shade unlucky at Wolverhampton on Friday. Drawn nine of 10, he raced wide before going for home almost half a mile from the finish and he kept up the gallop only to be worn down by King Sharja in the final strides. He runs off the same mark back over this course and distance and stall four should be a help here as Rose Dawes will surely look to make all the running (not much early pace on elsewhere in the field).
