Foresters Garden Buildings Novices' Hurdle (GBB Race)

French Ship

Thistle Be The One

The Final Word

FRENCH SHIP continued his good start over hurdles when making the frame behind a top-class prospect at Newbury on his latest outing and he looks to have leading claims of recording a second win in this sphere. Thistle Be The One stepped forward from his hurdling debut when runner-up last time and could be the main danger, ahead of The Final Word.

Meet Allaho On Saturday 18th January Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)

The Hardest Geezer

High Fibre

Last Rodeo

5-y-o mare EPINEPHRINE was far from disgraced on the back of a 14-month absence when fourth in a listed novice at Sandown on debut for Venetia Williams 32 days ago and, appealing as the type to do better with that under her belt, she could be the way to go. High Fibre and The Hardest Geezer should progress further also and are feared, as is hurdles debutant Strolling Along.

Torneo

It's Easy

TORNEO has shaped well when runner-up in similar contests the last twice and is narrowly preferred to Largy Force, who made a promising start to her chase career at Hereford but may not really come into her own over fences until faced with stiffer tests of stamina than this. Harry Derham's Any Biscuits should also have a part to play if taking to fences at the first time of asking. 

Stables Business Park Handicap Hurdle

Tom Doniphon

Sorceleur

TOM DONIPHON and Sorceleur stand out. The former saw off a couple of in-form rivals in comfortable fashion on his handicap debut over C&D last week and gets the nod to go in again given he escapes a penalty for that success. The latter has been handed a stiff-looking mark but remains with lots of potential. 

Geoffrey Bosley 'Tally Ho' Open Hunters' Chase

Angels Breath

Take All

Joker De Mai

FRERE D'ARMES seemed suited by the switch to front-running tactics at Fakenham and a reproduction of that form may well be good enough. Joker de Mai and Angels Breath are others to consider.

SKY BET PAYING 4 PLACES INSTEAD OF 3

Ironed Out

As Fast As Wind

Clear Storm

Dan Skelton juvenile FLOWERING looks on a workable opening hurdle mark and is taken to deny Sawpit Sienna a hat-trick in this race. Ironed Out is also respected on the back of her Fakenham near miss.

Oakley Boy

Fallen Soldier

Fiorella Princess

OAKLEY BOY has shown improved form fitted with a visor on his last 2 starts, bumping into one who scored again next time at Wolverhampton on his latest outing, so he is taken to resume winning ways returned to 5f. Dandy Magic left behind her stable debut effort with a ready success here last time and is respected, with Star Chorus also one to note.

Gamble Responsibly At BetUK Handicap

Humble Spark

HUMBLE SPARK showed a superb turn of foot to get himself out of trouble here 11 days ago and remains of strong interest up 2 lb in what is likely to be another tactical affair. Percy Willis was a good second here last week and is the obvious threat. 

Extra Winnings With BetUK Acca Club Novice Stakes

Northern Ruler

Fireblade

NORTHERN RULER wasn't seen to best effect when backed as if defeat was out of the question at Lingfield and has to be worth another chance stepped up in trip for his in-form new yard. Royal Approval and Fireblade can follow him home.

Mondammej

Strong Johnson

MONDAMMEJ shaped as if still in good form when second here last time and remains of interest back at his best trip. His stablemate Dark Kestrel is a potential threat if getting the breaks, while Al Farabi should have more to offer for his current yard. 

Weekly 5 Free Bet With BetUK Handicap

Annandale

Sandret

Kalikapour

KALIKAPOUR ended his losing run when winning at Southwell under this rider last month and a 3 lb rise doesn't look insurmountable. There was little between Sandret and Powerful Response when first and second over C&D 11 days ago and they head the dangers.

William Dewhirst

Beattie Is Back

Starliner

KING'S SCHOOL is steadily progressive so there's every chance he can complete the hat-trick. His old adversaries Red Maids and William Dewhirst, who both had their winning runs ended by the selection, head the dangers.

Tasever

Ahamoment

Rebecca's Girl

REBECCA'S GIRL did best of those ridden close up on her most recent outing over C&D last month and appeals as the type to win more races this winter on that evidence, so she earns the vote. Lahab and Wyvern are a couple of others that have been shaping up well lately and warrant plenty of respect in what looks a good race for the grade.

Sneaky Blinder

Largo Bay

Disquietude

LARGO BAY started 2024 with a win and may be able to repeat the feat in 2025. The way Disquietude finished off for second at Wolverhampton on Saturday suggests this step back up in trip could suit and she's feared most. Gentle Fire could also have a part to play if first-time cheekpieces help her to recapture the form she showed when runner-up at Wolverhampton last spring.  

Unibet/EBF Restricted Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

Transparent

Vocal Legend

Easily Convinced

TRANSPARENT looks the one after his promising debut over C&D in the autumn. Ralph Beckett newcomer Bozeman would be a potential big threat if the betting speaks for him. Vocal Legend and Golden Thorn showed enough last time to suggest they should be on the premises. 

British Stallions Studs EBF Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)

Megaphone

Berkshire Whisper

DESERT CHAMPION went like the best horse at the weights before ultimately finding residual greenness just catching him out when a close third at Southwell 3 weeks ago and, remaining capable of better, he's fancied to confirm the promise of that effort and come out on top. Megaphone, on debut for George Boughey, and appealing newcomer Berkshire Whisper are others to note.

Big R

Grenham Bay

GRENHAM BAY responded well to the application of first-time blinkers and ultimately scored a shade readily when taking a C&D handicap 21 days ago. A 4 lb rise should see him firmly in the mix once more and he's given the nod in the hope this headgear works as well a second time. Tyger Bay, Hierarchy and Runaround Sioux head up the dangers.

Monopolise

Beauty Generation

Saturnalia

MONOPOLISE looks the solid one here after a string of good efforts in 2024. Drumstick is less exposed than a lot of these and his last 2 efforts show he can be very competitive from his mark on AW. Profitman and Saturnalia complete the shortlist. 

Try Unibet's Improved Bet Builder Handicap

Molveno

BECCALI continued his theme of race-by-race progress when opening his account on nursery debut at Wolverhampton (7f) 23 days ago and with this further step up in trip expected to hold no fears, he looks a big player in his follow-up bid. Fellow last-time-out winner Hippocratic Oath, who is 3 from 4 in handicaps, rates the chief danger. 

Unibet Zero% Mission Handicap

Zoran

Robusto

Haaland

HAALAND shaped well on the back of an 11-month absence and was unlucky not to finish closer when fifth over shorter at Wolverhampton 12 days ago. He could well be worth siding with to confirm the promise of that run turned out quickly. Zoran boasts a good record here and is feared, as is handicap-debutant Jack McNamara and Francesco Baracca.
