14.18 RF Miller & Co Novices’ Hurdle

LOCH CUAN got off the mark at the fourth time of asking when scoring by an easy five lengths over C&D last month. Even under a penalty, Gordon Elliott’s charge remains the one to topple and can confidently take the opener.

Tips: LOCH CUAN

14.48 Hadwins Mares’ Handicap Hurdle

FOREST SPIRIT showed a good level of form on the Flat and has placed on her last couple of starts in this sphere. This will be her first try at the distance, but if she stays, then she should be able to make a serious impact.

Tips: FOREST SPIRIT

15.18 Molson Coors Novices’ Handicap Chase

PASSENGERONTHESHIP completed a four-timer at Hexham when scoring by nine lengths just five days ago, so even under a penalty, the seven-year-old is undoubtedly the one to beat. He is strongly fancied to beat these off from the front once more.

Tips: PASSENGERONTHESHIP

15.50 Lakes Luxury Loo’s Handicap Chase

STRATAGEM beat a very useful yardstick when winning at this course last month. Even off this 8lb higher mark, he remains well handicapped on past form. A repeat showing from last time ought to be see him prove difficult to stop with his sights lowered.

Tips: STRATAGEM

16.23 Cartmel Races Handicap Chase

James Moffatt has a good record with his runners at this course so it’s hard to discount ZUMBI. He was a comfortable winner here last time out and the return to this longer trip should pose no problem. The nine-year-old can continue his rich vein of form with another big performance.

Tips: ZUMBI

16.58 Cartmel Priory CofE School Amateur Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle

GOODWIN FACE is a strong-traveller and was confidently ridden en route to scoring at Plumpton last time out. He has been hit with an 8lb rise as a result, but should have plenty more to come and can double his tally over timber.

Tips: GOODWIN FACE
