13.30 – JenningsBet Witney Handicap Hurdle – 2m3f<\/strong><\/p>\n

Paul Nicholls\u2019 FAME AND FUN<\/strong> made a winning handicap debut at Taunton and, although he has been hit with a six-pounds rise, he should be able to defy it with more to come. TORULA<\/strong> drops in grade for his handicap debut after showing promise in each of his three starts to date and, with his trainer going well, he should pose a threat in the opener.<\/p>\n

Selections: FAME AND FUN, TORULA<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

14.00 – JenningsBet Christchurch Novices’ Hurdle – 1m7f<\/strong><\/p>\n

MATATA<\/strong> won on his hurdles debut and has finished runner-up in both starts since. He went very close five weeks ago and has strong claims of making the frame again here. SPARTAN ARMY<\/strong> won well on his hurdles debut at Wetherby and although he could only finish fifth in a Grade Two when last seen, this is much easier and he should be able to make an impact.<\/p>\n

Selections: MATATA, SPARTAN ARMY<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

14.30 – JenningsBet Eastleigh Novices’ Handicap Chase – 1m7f<\/strong><\/p>\n

MIDNIGHT MIDGE<\/strong> won his first two starts for this stable and bounced back from a lesser effort when second over C&D last time. He drops in class off the exact same mark here and should make a bold bid. MONGOL EMPEROR <\/strong>is well-treated based on his hurdles form and could be competitive here if able to build on his latest third.<\/p>\n

Selections: MIDNIGHT MIDGE, MONGOL EMPEROR<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

15.00 – Dick Hunt ‘Wigmore’ Handicap Chase – 3m1f<\/strong><\/p>\n

COPPERHEAD<\/strong> is a Grade Two winner over fences and although he has been below form for a while, his latest two runs over hurdles have offered revival encouragement. If first-time headgear has a positive effect, he could outclass these. GOLDEN SOVEREIGN <\/strong>returned from an absence to finish an excellent third on Boxing Day and this former C&D winner has to be respected.<\/p>\n

Selections: COPPERHEAD, GOLDEN SOVEREIGN<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

15.35 – JenningsBet Newbury EBF Mares’ ‘National Hunt’ Novices’ Hurdle – 2m5f<\/strong><\/p>\n

FAIRY GEM <\/strong>twice made the frame in Listed company in bumpers and while her hurdling career didn\u2019t get off the best of starts, she took advantage of a drop in class when winning easily at Hereford last time. She has a penalty to contend with but that latest success might have been needed in order to fulfil her potential. She has place possibilities at the very least here.<\/p>\n

Selections: FAIRY GEM<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

16.10 – Stewart Tory Memorial Open Hunters’ Chase – 3m1f<\/strong><\/p>\n

SHANTOU FLYER<\/strong>, a horse who has made the frame at the Cheltenham Festival on multiple occasions, is unbeaten for current stable and this once high-class handicapper has a great chance to extend his winning sequence. FAMOUS CLERMONT <\/strong>has done very well between the flags and can be seen as the biggest danger to the former in this.<\/p>\n

Selections: SHANTOU FLYER, FAMOUS CLERMONT<\/strong><\/p>\n
