We round up all the details from the Sky Bet trading room and give our verdicts on the firm's Price Boost offers, with a Dan Skelton runner well backed at Newbury.
Market Movers
Best-backed selection: 12.45 Newbury - Al Shahir 10/3 from 13/2
In a wide-open race, the money for Dan Skelton's Al Shahir looks significant. He gets in here under a light weight and ran a promising enough race when fourth on his seasonal return and chasing debut at Carlisle. The form of that race has already worked out well and the Skelton runners has been eased 2lb which may prove generous.

Price Boosts - Hit or Miss?
12.35 Doncaster - Charmant
MISS - Won well on chasing debut at Sedgefield but raised 8lb for that and in a little deeper today.
13.25 Limerick - Bay Hill
HIT - Fit and firing and clearly in better form than ever; could be up to defying new mark in this company.
13.30 Southwell - First Excel
HIT - Proven at the track and back to form last time, he looks primed to win this race for the second year running.
15.00 Newbury – Wholestone & Sam Spinner (Feature Boosts)
MISS/MISS - Both tasked with carrying penalties and while their best form would give them obvious claims, there are reasons for taking each on (trip/ground - lack of race fitness).
17.30 Dundalk - King's Vow
HIT - Didn't get the best of runs here last time and looks more than capable of going one better.
19.45 Newcastle - Holy Heart
MISS - Gosden runners always respected here but not seen for a year and surely worth opposing on that basis alone.
Trader Tip
12.10 Newbury – Sevarano
Big things were expected of Oliver Sherwood’s hurdling debutant when a slightly disappointing runner-up last time out, but that may yet still turn out to be an above-average effort. Good ground and no pace in the race didn’t help that day so with conditions set perfectly today a massive run can be expected.
