Today’s tip comes from Market Rasen where CAPE TRIBULATION seems sure to provide a stern test after finishing runner-up to Wayward Prince in the Grade 2 Towton Novices’ Chase at Wetherby. He remains open to further improvement and is one to keep an eye on as the season develops.

Today’s tip comes from Fontwell where SPANISH CRUISE is entitled to have more to offer today. He showed a likeable attitude when just getting up on his debut for the David Pipe over an extended 2m5f at Exeter almost one month ago and, with this extra yardage sure to suit, he will be fancied to defy a 10lb hike in the handicap.

	Spanish Cruise	3 points	Currently 5/1

Today’s tip comes from Hereford where Tony McCoy can lead his mount to a third consecutive success. The hat-trick seeking SALPIERRE is up in trip and 16lb higher than when successful at Warwick in November, but there’s little to suggest his progression will have stopped and Jonjo O’Neill’s charge can strike.

	Salpierre	2 points	Currently 5/2

Today’s tip comes from Market Rasen where the McCain stable hope to see their schooling efforts pay dividends. SMUGLIN ran out an impressive winner over hurdles over 2m5f at Perth back in May and she is sure to have been extensively schooled in preparation for her chasing debut today.

Today’s tip comes from Uttoxeter where a horse from the Twiston-Davies stable has an easy race to continue on the winning vein. ACKERTAC still has room for improvement in his jumping, but he had plenty in hand over 2m5f here last month and a reproduction of that effort would probably make him tough to beat this afternoon.

Today’s tip comes from Cartmel where CIANNTE is sent on her hurdling debut. Form of small-field Hexham bumper win in July boosted when runner-up won next start in good style and, given that she has won an Irish point, today’s step up in trip and switch to hurdles looks sure to suit. Stuart Crawford will have her well schooled for her hurdling debut.
