Fontwell: 2:50 Royalequestrian Bedding And Manor Elite Horsebox National Spirit Hurdle 2m3f

Course and distance winner Brewin’upastorm has fewer questions to answer than some of his rivals and looks the safest option on this occasion. He is weighted confirm his previous form with Darver Star, whom he beat at Lingfield in January; Goshen, the third horse home, has won twice since to give that form some substance.

Selection: Brewin’upastorm (2/1 with William Hill)

 

Fontwell: 3:50 Royalequestrian Bedding And Manor Elite Horsebox Handicap Hurdle 2m5f164y

Delgany Monarch remains a maiden after seven starts over hurdles, but his previous form at or around this distance suggests that he may be capable of taking a hand off his lowest handicap mark yet. He’s had excuses on two of his three starts so far this season and may yet be capable of better.

Selection: Delgany Monarch (13/2 with William Hill)

 

Hereford: 2:10 Hereford Racehorse Ownership Club Handicap Hurdle 2m3f147y

The Street is actually 1lb better off with subsequent winner Eaton Collina on their running at Chepstow earlier this month and must have every chance of confirming the form, especially with conditional jockey Jack Wildman taking off 10lb. Soft ground clearly holds no terrors for the son of Fame And Glory, who remains open to further improvement after just four starts under Rules.

Selection: The Street (3/1 with William Hill)

 

Hereford: 2:40 Manor Elite Horseboxes Handicap Chase 2m3f

After two defeats this season, Zalvados has dropped back to the same handicap mark as when winning at Doncaster just over a year ago and may be ready to win again. He has a poor win-to-run ratio over hurdles and fences, but has often been quite highly tried and was far from disgraced on ground probably fast than ideal at Doncaster last time.

Selection: Zalvados (11/2 with William Hill)
