Apache Green

Mbappe

SUPER HIT has been consistent on the All-Weather and finished a promising second at Lingfield 9 days ago, settling better and finishing strongly. With good previous form at this course and distance, he looks poised to end his long losing sequence. Mbappe returns to a track where he's won before and should go well after being denied a clear run last time. Apache Green has been perked up by blinkers so is another to consider.

Dr Ali

Magna

Respectable Jack

SMASHER should appreciate returning to this venue and shades the vote over hat-trick seeking Magna, who has clearly improved since dropping to 6f. Dr Ali sports cheekpieces again and could benefit from returning to 6f.

Helga

Distorted Truth

Misty Cove

GALISTRA represents a stable with an impressive win rate and, as a half-sister to a French winner over similar distance, warrants close attention on debut. Distorted Truth comes from a family with middle-distance capability and her trainer has an excellent record with newcomers. Misty Cove stayed on promisingly at Dundalk last month and should improve stepping up in trip.

Unibet 40,000+ Live Streamed Events Novice Stakes (GBBPlus Race)

Caliban

Summer Appeal

Siouxfonic

Oisin Murphy takes the reins on CALIBAN for the first time and Andrew Balding's charge can turn the tables on last month's Wolverhampton conqueror Siouxfonic on these 5 lb better terms. Aethelthryth should also play a prominent role on the back of her promising debut at Chelmsford in November.

Up The Agenda

Unionville

UP THE AGENDA didn't enjoy the rub of the green at Lingfield last time and can show he's still on a favourable mark. Saxon Prince appeals as one who can do better in handicaps and is second choice ahead of Space Bear.

Your Love

Shallow

SHALLOW is very capable when her mark dips into the 70s and might be worth siding with back from a short break. Her stablemate Your Love posted a good runner-up effort last time and is second choice ahead of last-time-out winner Handle With Care.

I'm Workin On It

Party Bear

Exposay

PARTY BEAR's AW record is generally a positive one and sure to strip fitter with her return from 6 months off under her belt, she looks the answer. I'm Workin On It and Lerwick have had contrasting fortune in the draw department, with the former expected to emerge as the chief threat. 

Lingfield

Broken Vow

Itsinthename

A smallish field for this opening bumper but still an interesting race. MY MATE AJ shaped encouragingly on his debut and gets the vote, although strong market support for Paul Nicholls newcomer Le Cold Grey would put a slightly different slant on things. Irish point recruit Itsinthename would also firmly enter the reckoning should the betting speak in his favour. 

Sky Sports Racing Virgin 519 Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)

Wondering Why

Jamada

Zamek

CAYMAN DANCER did good work late on starting out for this yard when second on hurdles bow at Newbury last month and shades the vote over Wondering Why, who is capable of winning one of these judged on his placed efforts at Southwell and Huntingdon. Unjeu Royal stepped up on his hurdles debut when second at Huntingdon and is another to consider. 

mybettingsites.com Surrey National Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Aworkinprogress

Catch Catchfire

Invincible Nao

SPECIAL JOHN is a younger stayer on the up for a very capable yard, and he can improve again to land the hat-trick on first start over a marathon trip. Hidden History couldn't build on a promising start over fences at Sandown last time but he's unexposed over this sort of distance and may get back on track for the Dan Skelton yard. Val Dancer merits respect returned to a more extreme test, while Makin'yourmindup would be interesting if back to his useful best. 

Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Handicap Hurdle

Luwdvig

Godot

Karton Plein

BLUE SKY DREAMING should have more to offer now handicapping over further and gets the vote for Alan King. Sunday Soldier is well handicapped if a return to hurdling sparks a return to her best form and is second choice ahead of Sea Warrior, who showed promise in his qualifying runs and didn't get a chance to show what he could do on last month's handicap debut.

Bollin Thou

Inion Tiogair

BOLLIN THOU is thriving and can defy a 7 lb penalty to land a hat-trick under Sean Bowen. Inion Tiogair isn't one for maximum faith but has hit the frame on three of her 4 starts this season, while Mild Magic and Directly can both do better now handicapping and should be noted for support.

Icaque de L'Isle

Thruthelookinglass

Felton Bellevue

It was highly encouraging to see MONTMARTIN perform as well as he did when third on chase debut at Ffos Las spring, particularly bearing in mind that he was returning from almost two years on the sidelines. If able to build on that back from a nine-month absence here, he will have a serious chance off this 3 lb lower mark. One Last Glance and Koenigsstern both found just one too last time out and are feared most in that order of preference, while Thruthelookinglass is another strong candidate.

Gwennie May Jem

Ronnies Reflection

Begin The Luck

Though it was only a three-runner affair in which LADY PRETENDER somewhat belatedly got off the mark at Plumpton last month, there was enough in that performance to suggest that this 7 lb higher mark may not prove beyond reach in a race of this nature. It's probably worth overlooking Diamond Days' latest effort and he is second choice ahead of Begin The Luck and Constant Friday.

Tenadaay

Late Claim

Eutropia

ICE OPERA made all to get off the mark in a C&D classified stakes 3 days ago and may be able to repeat the feat under a penalty in a weak handicap. Galactic Glow returns to the all-weather after struggling over hurdles but has won in similar company previously, while Eutropia showed signs of improvement when third at this track 17 days ago and could be in the mix if coping with this step up in trip,

Al Baahy

Al Shabab

Relevant Range

RELEVANT RANGE appears to be thriving for new connections and can follow up his Southwell win on Saturday. Al Baahy shaped better than the result when third at Newcastle recently and is capable of being competitive despite a poor overall win record. Al Shabab completes the shortlist on just second start in classified company. 

Midnite: Built For 2026 Not 2006 Restricted Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)

Alasrae

Adalida

Arishka's Dream

ALASRAE was beaten only a neck over 6f at Lingfield last time and he's fancied to get off the mark in a change of headgear. Arishka's Dream ran his best race when second over this C&D (not seen to best effect latest) and he stands out as the main danger. Adalida disappointed when strongly supported on C&D stable debut in November but isn't discounted on her best form. 

Make The Move To Midnite Handicap

Addarella

Water Of Leith

Phoenix Of Dreams

WATER OF LEITH was a major eye-catcher when fourth in the 11-runner C&D handicap won by the Zoulu Warrior during the Christmas period, his claimer subjecting him to tender handling and picking up a 10-day suspension as a consequence. The 8-y-o enjoys a 4 lb pull with Zoulu Warrior, who is bidding for the hat-trick, having finished 2 lengths behind the winner and it could be a different outcome this time. Early Release was only ninth in that race but is capable of better and should have a say.

Vince Lombardi

Arantes Nascimento

Star Of Mali

It could be worth siding with ASH WEDNESDAY, who wasn't at his best at York when last seen in the summer but his record on the all-weather is exemplary and his sole defeat from five previous starts over this C&D was an unlucky near-miss on his first visit on Boxing Day 2024. Unexposed filly Lodge is greatly respected on her handicap debut, while Star of Mali is not short of appeal and Arantes Nascimento and Chifa, who is bidding for the hat-trick, are others to consider.

Hardstyle

Electrocution

Blue Mountains

Anything other than another clear-cut success for HARDSTYLE would be a surprise, given the dearth of credible opposition to George Boughey's representative. Indeed, he did the job well over a mile here recently and neither the drop back to 7f nor the 6 lb penalty are likely to pose much of a problem. Fallacious Promise is a likely improver now handicapping and gets the nod for forecast purposes ahead of Miss Ayala.

Master Dandy

Colors Of Freedom

COLORS OF FREEDOM and Sultan of Oj finished second and third in a C&D handicap on Friday and look the pair to focus on, with the former taken to confirm the placings. Master Dandy has a better draw to work with this time so he needs considering.
