Racing TV Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)

Wellington Arch

Throatlash

Tech That

This looks a good chance for WELLINGTON ARCH to go one better than on his hurdle debut. Donald McCain point recruit Throatlash may provide the main threat ahead of Tech That, who was a close fourth in a Ffos Las bumper last month.

SKY BET EXTRA PLACE RACE

King Of Tara

Disco Annie

None of these can be ruled out but the vote goes to DISCO ANNIE who was runner-up in an Irish point and arrives at the top of her game over hurdles. She is taken to go in at the first time of asking in this sphere for her in-form yard ahead of fellow chasing newcomer King of Tara who brings plenty of potential too. Fia Fuinidh appeals as the pick of those with experience and can also have a say in an intriguing contest.

Aire Spray

Navigate West

Independent Jimmy

A chance is taken on DEEP STRATO, who is bred to be a good deal better than such a modest opening mark and more than hinted at ability last season. Newcastle maiden winner Lathan looks on a fair opening mark himself and is second choice ahead of Tees Comp's Clive, who also leaves the impression he could step up now handicapping.

Grandads Cottage

Lieutenant Command

This is wide open but Olly Murphy has his string in excellent nick so his GRANDADS COTTAGE is taken to make a winning return and edge out the hat-trick seeking Flic Ou Voyou. William of York is another who can have a say despite having an absence to overcome, with Marown completing the shortlist. 

Pertemps Network Handicap Hurdle (GBB Race)

Shallow River

D Art D Art

Gwennie May Boy

ICARE ALLEN is still well-handicapped on the best of his form and he is taken to follow up his victory at Uttoxeter last month. Interesting Irish challenger D Art D Art and Gwennie May Boy can give the selection most to think about, while the progressive Scarlet O'Tara is also respected. 

Racing TV Free Trial Handicap Chase

Croagh Patrick

Gipsy Lee Rose

ROCK OF STAR was strong in the betting starting out for this yard when falling at the 11th here on his comeback in October so is worth another chance. Gipsy Lee Rose and Croagh Patrick were first and second in a similar event over C&D 2 weeks ago so also need considering. 

Happy Christmas From Carlisle Racecourse Mares' Open NH Flat Race (GBB Race)

Smile Back

Gintime

Crying Lightning

GINTIME is bred to go well in this sphere and, if sufficiently clued up, could be capable of getting the better of Oh Clare, who is the clear pick of those with experience. Crying Lightning should find this easier than her debut in a listed race, so she's also considered.

Windsor

Fitzdares Welcomes Jumping Back At Royal Windsor EBF 'National Hunt' Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)

Ma Shantou

EXCELLO is a useful chaser and, given he's getting weight from his two main rivals, a reproduction of his recent second in an Ascot noice hurdle will likely be enough for him to go one better. Ma Shantou is open to further progress as he gains experience in this sphere and Illegal d'Ainay isn't a forlorn hope.

Fitzdares Royal Windsor Novices' Limited Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Vincenzo

Tedley

HELNWEIN continued his progress switched to fences when making a highly promising return at Warwick and appeals as the most likely winner. Tedley continued his good start over fences when second at Newbury and is feared most.

Fitzdares Royal Windsor Racecourse Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)

Starcrossed Lover

La Pinsonniere

French Emperor

French-recruit LA PINSONNIERE sets the bar pretty high for a race like this and can make a winning start for the Nicky Henderson yard. French Emperor made a promising start to his hurdle career at Lingfield recently and can fight it out for minor honours with Starcrossed Lover, a new recruit for the Neil Mulholland stable, and Boston Boy. 

Fitzdares Thames Handicap Chase

Ballycamus

Minella Blueway

TANGANYIKA shaped well in a stronger race than this on his chase bow/comeback at Bangor and gets the vote with improvement on the cards. The reliable Ballycamus can follow the selection home. 

Fitzdares Windsor Castle Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Asian Spice

Bellbird

SAISISSANTE can record her second success over hurdles, having posted a likeable comeback effort at Hereford 18 days ago. Bellbird ran well at Carlisle last time out, and she can chase home the selection ahead of Asian Spice, with Harry Cobden an eyecatching jockey booking.

Fitzdares Telephone Betting Handicap Chase

Hasthing

Duhallow Tommy

Zertakt

HASTHING should improve for his chasing debut and bumper form gives him the potential for a good bit more progress yet, so he's preferred to the reliable Duhallow Tommy. Zertakt is well handicapped on his French form and returns with his stable going well, so he's not without hope. 

Fitzdares Windsor Christmas Handicap Hurdle

Loverdose

Onewaywest

Blue Hop

Plenty are in with a shout but it's still hard to side against Robert Walford's progressive LOVERDOSE who is fancied to gain compenastion for his excellent Chepstow second last time out when scuppered by a late error. Both Fourtowns and Poncho are weighted to have a say and must enter calculations, while others to consider include Onewaywest, Douglas DC and Calshot Spit. 

Navan

Irish Stallion Farms EBF Handicap Hurdle (80-116)

Brave Troop

Lygon Lad

Portnacoo

BRAVE TROOP had any amount in hand when making successful handicap hurdle debut for new trainer Charles Byrnes at Thurles and even a 16 lb rise doesn't look enough to stop him with further improvement likely. Second choice is Luimneach who had an excuse at Punchestown last time and had been in good form prior to that. Lady Bresil and Gordon Elliott handicap newcomer Lygon Lad complete the shortlist.

Glen Kiln

Theflyingbee

Boston Rover

AWAY TO MILAN made an encouraging return from an absence at Punchestown 3 weeks ago and is given a chance to build on that promise. Boston Rover made a good start to his handicap career when second at Thurles last month and is second choice ahead of last-time-out winners Kinbara First and Roxhill Rose. 

Sky Bet paying 6 places instead of 4

Blaze The Way

Toor Khov

Plain Or Battered

Crossing The Bar

Lots with chances but CROSSING THE BAR rates the pick of the weights back in this sphere so edges the vote from handicapping debutants Born Bright (second choice) and Boston Beach. Billy Lee Swagger, Churchwarden and Toor Khov all need factoring into this very open handicap too. 

Irish Stallion Farms EBF Handicap Chase (0-123)

Midnight It Is

Folly Master

Cheerful Chap

CHEERFUL CHAP was unlucky to bump into a handicap blot at Clonmel on his return 12 days ago and remains unexposed as a chaser. The progressive Money Heist is the obvious threat as he bids for the hat-trick on return, with his stablemate Midnight It Is completing the shortlist.

Irish Stallion Farms EBF Handicap Chase (0-116)

Individualiste

A Wave Of The Sea

Mighty Oak Lad

INDIVIDUALISTE opened his chasing account with ease at Thurles last time and looks on a good mark back in a handicap. Soloman Lane can go well fresh and won at Leopardstown when last seen in March, so is next best ahead of Dawn Escape, who may do better now handicapping. 

Verdant Place

Salmanino

Shajak

POTTERS PARTY signalled he is ready to go in again when an excellent second at Down Royal so looks the way to go. The handily-weighted Verdant Place heads the list of dangers, although the likes of Pipers Boreen, Temptationinmilan and Shajak all enter calculations in this competitive handicap. 

Irish Stallion Farms EBF Future Champions Flat Race (Listed)

Kalypso'chance

Heads Up

Gigginstown has a strong hand in this with point winners KALYPSO'CHANCE and Classical Creek both having made impressive Rules debuts. They're likely to fight it out, with the former taken to prevail, although a case can be made for the others.

Captains Envy

Holds The Key

HOLDS THE KEY has an excellent chance on what he has achieved so far and is a straightforward selection. Bell Of Angelus is the most prudent second option having her first run, while American Prohaah may be the one for third first time out.

Agrado

Paved With Gold

Ragnar The King

PAVED WITH GOLD should improve and is much the one to aim at. Buttercup Baby is the rational second option on her debut, while Ragnar The King is another that could go well.

Follow In The Box Seat Podcast Maiden Plate

My Boy Lollipop

Real War

Higher Love

MY BOY LOLLIPOP failed to justify market support last time out, but edges it as the selection once again. Catavar could give the selection most to think about, while Real War is perhaps the most interesting other runner in the field.

Gallop TV Fm 67 Handicap (F & M)

She's A Bomber

Sascha's Dream

MYSTIQUE ROUGE looks marginally the best of these but has next to no margin for error. Lady Is A Champ can also play a significant part, while Sascha's Dream should go well too.

www.galloptv.co.za Mr 90 Handicap

Kitchakal

Lindbergh

Ancient World

NOCTURNAL FLIGHT just about looks the one to be with but it's open. Master Of Destiny is likely to be waiting in the wings if the selection fails to deliver, while Kitchakal deserves some consideration as well.

Tyrconnell

Capsaicin

TYRCONNELL continues to run well and just about gets the nod in this field. Teriyaki could be the toughest opponent, while Voldemort has place prospects as well.

One Irish Rover

Whereverilaymyhat

ONE IRISH ROVER is hard to oppose if not hindered by this different trip. Stevie Gee is most likely the principal challenger, while Now I Got You could go well too.

Hollywoodbets Bright Future Mr 80 Handicap

Kalahari Roller

Future Flo

Twenty One May

KALAHARI ROLLER just about gets the nod but has little room for error. Professor Lupin could be the chief threat, while Immah shouldn't be far away either.
