Haydock 1.15

I’m keen to chance ANDASHAN in the ITV opener. He stayed on well on reappearance at Newbury to finish third and should improve markedly for the run. If he settles better this slight step up in trip will suit and he looks good value against the favourite.

Kabral Du Mathan is now with the Skelton’s and has decent form so looks the obvious danger. Florida Dreams also respected.

Andashan 9/2 each way VALUE BET

Main danger Kabral Du Mathan and also look out for Florida Dreams

Ascot 1.30

Arkle hero JANGO BAIE returns and the money has been pretty relentless suggesting he will be fit enough to do himself justice! This longer trip will be ideal and with pace assured he could be the one finishing best of all here.

There is a chance Pic D’orhy and Il Est Francais take each other on so Gidleigh Park has a squeak as well.

Ascot 1.30

Jango Baie 11/4

Main danger Gidleigh Park

Haydock 1.50

Some nice horses have won this down the years including Grey Dawning 2 years ago and Trelawne last year. THE JUKEBOX MAN looked exciting winning his first two starts over fences before suffering a setback. He has tons of potential and should prove hard to beat.

Iroko is a live danger but he will be targeted at the Grand National again so might do better for the run. Knappers Hill best of the rest.

The Jukebox Man 4/5

Main danger Iroko

Punchestown 2.10

It is a shame we only have 4 runners heading to post for the Morgiana but it will be great to see LOSSIEMOUTH again. In the absence of State Man she takes her chance and she is very difficult to oppose and should justify cramped odds.

Irancy looked good beating Salvator Mundi at Punchestown and can prove comfortably best of the rest with Ndaawi likely third.

Punchestown 2.10

Lossiemouth 4/9

Main danger Irancy

Haydock 2.25

It could be another profitable Saturday for the Skelton’s and ACE OF SPADES looks to have a major chance here. He impressed winning at Aintree on return and still looks well handicapped despite a small 3lb rise. If this pans out favourably he should be right in the mix.

Hartington showed a good attitude to win at Carlisle and could be the danger if seeing out 3 miles. Ma Shantou is also thriving.

Ace Of Spades 8/1 each way

Main dangers Ma Shantou and Hartington

Ascot 2.40

No surprise to see the money coming for WODHOOH as she is expected to be a cut above here. She has won 7 from 8 over hurdles and her only defeat came at the hands of Lossiemouth at Aintree. She goes well fresh and is hard to oppose as the market suggests.

Potters Charm fell at Wetherby on return but could still have more to come and might be the danger. Celtic Dino needs the rain to stay away.

Ascot 2.40

Wodhooh 5/4 NEXT BEST

Main danger Potters Charm

Haydock 3.00

With over £100K on the line Dan Skelton is likely to have GREY DAWNING in prime condition. He suffered a heartbreaking defeat in this 12 months ago and should put things right this time around with the ground likely ideal. He is very hard to pick holes in.

Haiti Couleurs lacks the class of the selection but does stay all day and looks the one to chase him home. Handstands needs to jump better.

Haydock 3.00

Grey Dawning 6/5 NAP

Main danger Haiti Couleurs

Ascot 3.15

The likeable GABRIEL’S GETAWAY usually takes a couple of runs to get fit and he has shaped well on both occasions most notably chasing home Teddy Blue here at the start of the month. He can build on that and looks good value to run a big race.

Martator won this last year and the handicapper has given him a chance of defending his crown. Jpr One is also capable on a going day.

Ascot 3.15

Gabriel’s Getaway 7/1 each way LONGSHOT

Main danger Narrator

Haydock 3.35

I thought that was a massive run from MAJOR FORTUNE at Cheltenham. He looked the winner before getting tired which is understandable first run back. He can improve from that and this trip will suit better too. Good value to come out on top here.

Saladins Son was progressive when last seen and could be open to further improvement but will need to up in grade. Konfusion also feared.
