Today’s tip comes from Hereford where, despite her 16-month absence from the track, it’s worth siding with R DE REIN SIVOLA. She looked a progressive chaser before her lay-off, winning over 2m 4f at Uttoxeter in some style. If she resumes at anything like her best, she could take all the beating.

Today’s tip comes from Cheltenham where REBEL DU MAQUIS’ recent record suggests he is well up to landing this. Second in his first two starts over fences in France, he’s unbeaten over the bigger obstacles this season and should have the measure of his rivals today.

Today’s tip comes from Fontwell where TAKE THE BREEZE drops in class and has the ground perfect for his challenge. The heavier the better is the case with this horse and recent rainfall has churned the ground up nicely. Been performing credibly at a higher level than this recently and is running off a favourable mark today. Only question mark is the untried distance of 2m 6f but he should have the stamina to outstay the small field of 3 other horses.
