18:20 – EHB Residential Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)
Race Details: 2m | Class 4 | Going: 7.8) (watering) (inner hurdle course) (Good (goingstick) | | jumps
This doesn’t look a deep maiden on paper and, bluntly, Louis Veron has been handed a very workable opening. Dan Skelton’s five-year-old brings the standout hurdle form, having finished runner-up on both starts in this sphere, and his mark of 116 sets a clear standard in a race where only Dunstall Star has even threatened comparable ability. The Tom George runner is respected after winning a bumper and showing enough over hurdles, but his latest fall leaves a question to answer. Behind the obvious pair, it gets thin quickly. Lyric may improve from a quiet debut, while Garde My Guinness has bits of placed form without looking especially well treated. It feels more straightforward than trappy, with the favourite hard to oppose.
Top Selections
1. Louis Veron – 1/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Harry Skelton | Trainer: Dan Skelton | Form: 2-2 | Rating: 116 | Topspeed: 98
Louis Veron is a very obvious favourite, but sometimes the obvious answer is the right one. He has already shown a level of hurdle form that the rest of these simply haven’t matched, and that 116 rating gives him a healthy edge in this line-up. Two silver medals over hurdles suggest he’s knocking firmly on the door rather than finding ways to get beat, and Harry Skelton is exactly the man you want aboard in a race where professionalism should count for plenty. At 1/4 with Bet365, there’s no great mystery in the price, but he looks the one they all have to beat and should take a lot of stopping. Bet type: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Dunstall Star – 6/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Jonathan Burke | Trainer: Tom George | Form: 61-F | Rating: 104 | Topspeed:
If you want something to play against the short-priced jolly, Dunstall Star is the only one who makes much each-way appeal. He won a bumper earlier in his career, so there is ability there, and his hurdle form prior to that latest fall was respectable enough for a race of this standard. The tumble last time is the obvious concern, but Jonathan Burke is a solid booking and Tom George’s horses can bounce back quickly when things click. He doesn’t have Louis Veron’s level of form, but 6/1 with Bet365 looks fair in a field where several of his rivals need a dramatic chunk of improvement just to get competitive. Bet type: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple: Louis Veron is the win bet and looks the likeliest result by some margin. For those wanting a bit more value in a seven-runner field, Dunstall Star is the each-way option, assuming he puts that latest fall behind him. Lyric is the one with a bit of scope to improve, but the market leaders set the standard.

18:55 – Insight Surveyors Handicap Hurdle
Race Details: 3m 2f | Class 5 | Going: 7.8) (watering) (inner hurdle course) (Good (goingstick) | | jumps
This doesn’t look a deep Class 5 by any means and the market has every right to centre on Tyson, who arrives here after getting the job done last time and now tries to follow up under another stiff weight. He’s the obvious one, but not quite a penalty kick over this sort of staying trip if the race turns into a proper slog from the back straight. Baltray and Spitalfield are the two with enough recent evidence to make it interesting, while Luna Run is the lighter-weight option who could easily outrun her price if this becomes a test of stamina rather than class. A few of the others are either badly out of form or returning with too much to prove, so this feels more about whether the favourite is solid rather than spectacular.
Top Selections
1. Tyson – 11/10 with Bet365
Jockey: Harry Skelton | Trainer: Dan Skelton | Form: P51-71 | Rating: 107 | Topspeed: 101
Tyson is the one they all have to beat. His profile is hardly bombproof, but the latest win suggests he is beginning to settle into handicaps properly and a mark of 107 still looks workable for a 6yo from the Skelton yard. Harry Skelton is exactly the rider you want on a horse carrying top weight round Warwick, and that Topspeed figure of 101 stands out in this company. At around 11/10 he is short enough, but this isn’t a race packed with lurking improvers and he brings the clearest recent winning form to the table. If he sees out the 3m2f thoroughly, he should take plenty of stopping. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Luna Run – 15/2 with Paddy Power
Jockey: Megan Fox | Trainer: Harry Derham | Form: 5373-6 | Rating: 106 | Topspeed: 85
Luna Run makes more each-way appeal than most in here because she comes in with a low weight, a fair enough mark, and bits of placed form that suggest this sort of race is within reach. Her reappearance sixth doesn’t scream winner, but it may just have sharpened her up, and stepping back into a modest staying handicap could suit much better. Harry Derham’s runners are often well placed in races like this and 15/2 looks a perfectly fair each-way quote in a field where several rivals have obvious questions hanging over them. She doesn’t have Tyson’s upside, but she may be the one plugging on when others have cried enough. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Tyson is the win play and, frankly, he’s hard to oppose in a race lacking depth. For an each-way alternative, Luna Run appeals most off a handy weight and should be staying on late if this becomes attritional. Spitalfield and Baltray are the obvious dangers if the favourite underperforms, but the betting angles look straightforward enough here.

19:30 – Virtus Property Services Handicap Hurdle
Race Details: 2m 3f | Class 4 | Going: 7.8) (watering) (inner hurdle course) (Good (goingstick) | | jumps
This may be a five-runner race, but it is not short on intrigue. Modern Style heads the market and understandably so after a productive spell in handicaps, while Dream’s Ka arrives on the back of a win and still looks the type to progress again for Dan Skelton. Midnight View is a solid yardstick at this level and should give another honest account, whereas Amatchmadeinheaven has bits of form that entitle him to respect if bouncing back. Kentucky River is less straightforward after a disappointing latest effort. In a small field like this, pace and jumping rhythm could be decisive, and there is every chance the one still improving quickest will simply outclass the rest. It is not a deep Class 4, but it is a race with a clear pecking order.
Top Selections
1. Modern Style – 9/4 with Bet365
Jockey: James Best | Trainer: Nigel Hawke | Form: P011-2 | Rating: 109 | Topspeed: 107
Modern Style makes most appeal. His profile is the right one for a race like this: a 4yo who has found his feet in handicaps and whose figures suggest there is still more to come. That topspeed mark of 107 is the standout in the field, and his recent second indicates he has returned in good order rather than gone over the top. Off 109, he does not look harshly treated, especially with just 10st 12lb on his back. James Best should be able to keep things uncomplicated in a race lacking depth, and 9/4 looks perfectly fair rather than cramped given his upside. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple in this small field: Modern Style is the win bet and the only selection. He looks the most progressive horse in the line-up and has the strongest recent handicap credentials. Dream’s Ka is the obvious danger after his latest success, while Midnight View is solid enough to nick a place if the favourite underperforms, but there is no each-way angle worth forcing here.

20:00 – Rainier Developments Handicap Chase
Race Details: 3m | Class 5 | Going: 7.8) (watering) (inner hurdle course) (Good (goingstick) | | jumps
This looks a workable little 3m handicap chase rather than a deep one, and the market has understandably latched on to Thickthorn Tom after he got off the mark over fences last time. He brings obvious momentum for the Skelton yard and sets the standard alongside the ultra-reliable Carpe Diem, whose recent sequence gives him solid place credentials again. Misteroddsocks is another who enters calculations from a handy mark at the foot of the weights, while Knightsbridge is the one who could easily bounce back if the first-time stamina test draws improvement. It is not a race full of secrets, but nor is it completely straightforward: the favourite is respected, yet there are a couple of prices in here that make this more than a one-horse affair.
Top Selections
1. Thickthorn Tom – 11/8 with Bet365
Jockey: Harry Skelton | Trainer: Dan Skelton | Form: 6P3-21 | Rating: 105 | Topspeed: 91
He is hard to oppose. The recent form figures tell the story of a horse learning the job over fences and getting better with racing, and that latest win suggested the penny has dropped. A mark of 105 still looks fair for a 6yo with upside, and Harry Skelton aboard for a yard that rarely wastes journeys to tracks like Warwick only adds confidence. This is a small field, which should suit a horse who can travel and jump his way into a rhythm, and the step into another 3m test looks a sensible move rather than a gamble. At 11/8, he is short enough, but still the most likely winner. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. King Of The Story – 12/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Jonathan Burke | Trainer: Polly Gundry | Form: 1PP4-2 | Rating: 106 | Topspeed: 97
He is the one that makes most each-way appeal in a race where a few of the obvious alternatives are priced about right. His profile is patchy, no question, but that latest second hinted he retains enough ability to get seriously involved from this mark, and his Topspeed figure of 97 says he still has the engine when things fall right. Jonathan Burke is a positive booking for a horse who may need delivering at the right time, and if this becomes a test of resolution late on, the veteran could easily grind his way into the frame. At 12/1, he looks overpriced against rivals with questions of their own. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Thickthorn Tom is the win play and the percentage call in a race lacking depth. For an each-way punt, King Of The Story makes more appeal than some shorter-priced rivals because the price gives you room to manoeuvre. Carpe Diem is the obvious danger on consistency, while Misteroddsocks could also outrun his odds from the foot of the weights.

20:30 – Stockton House Mares’ Handicap Hurdle
Race Details: 2m | Class 5 | Going: 7.8) (watering) (inner hurdle course) (Good (goingstick) | | jumps
This looks a fairly ordinary Class 5 mares’ handicap rather than a deep contest, and the market has latched on to the one obvious progressive angle. Beorma arrives on the back of two wins and, despite a modest official mark of 100, has the profile of one still ahead of the assessor. Siorai is the interesting alternative now entering handicaps after some useful placed efforts in novice company, while Best Night has a workable mark if bouncing back from a quiet reappearance. Blackwater Lilly is reliable enough without looking especially well treated, and the rest need things to fall perfectly. In truth, this revolves around whether Beorma can keep improving under a penalty-like rise in the weights, and she may simply be better than these.
Top Selections
1. Beorma – 8/13 with Bet365
Jockey: Harry Skelton | Trainer: Dan Skelton | Form: /P8-11 | Rating: 100 | Topspeed: 68
She is short, but with good reason. Beorma has turned a corner completely on her last two starts, winning back-to-back handicaps after looking thoroughly exposed earlier in the campaign. The bare rating of 100 does not scream certainty, but this is a weak enough race and the Skelton team know exactly how to place one once the penny drops. Harry Skelton is an obvious positive in a race lacking much depth, and there is every chance this mare is still ahead of her mark despite the hat-trick bid. At 8/13 she is no giveaway, but she is hard to oppose if running to the level of those latest wins.
Bet: WIN
2. Siorai – 5/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Paul O’Brien | Trainer: Harry Derham | Form: 5226- | Rating: 105 | Topspeed: 98
Siorai makes plenty of each-way appeal against the favourite because her earlier form gives her a solid platform in this company. She was second twice before a lesser effort when last seen, and that opening handicap mark of 105 is not obviously harsh for a 4yo taking on mostly exposed older mares. Paul O’Brien is a good booking for a yard that can ready one after a break, and the Topspeed figure of 98 says she has already shown enough ability to be competitive in a race like this. Available at 5/1, she looks the value option if Beorma underperforms or finds this a less straightforward task than the market expects.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Beorma is the percentage call and the one to side with for win purposes, even at restrictive odds, because she is the only runner arriving with obvious momentum. For an each-way punt, Siorai makes more appeal than the exposed alternatives and should be thereabouts if fit enough on her return. Best Night is the danger if stepping forward from her comeback run.

21:00 – Taylor Wimpey Strategic Land Midlands Handicap Chase (GBB Race)
Race Details: 2m 4f | Class 4 | Going: 7.8) (watering) (inner hurdle course) (Good (goingstick) | | jumps
This five-runner handicap chase looks small in numbers but not entirely straightforward, because there are at least three with solid claims and very little room for error tactically. Theonlywayiswessex sets the standard on recent figures after a good second on his return and is the obvious one, while Royal Deeside gets plenty of weight and arrives in consistent nick. Bahtiyar is another who keeps knocking on the door without quite getting his head in front. Zestful Hope has enough ability to get involved if things fall right, but he has been a bit more hit-and-miss, while Thermythmofthenite needs to find improvement from somewhere. In a race likely decided by clean jumping and track position, class and reliability may count for plenty.
Top Selections
1. Theonlywayiswessex – 7/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Tom Bellamy | Trainer: Alan King | Form: /234-2 | Rating: 117 | Topspeed: 105
Theonlywayiswessex looks the percentage call in a race where there are not many hiding places. Alan King’s 8-year-old signed off last term with solid placed efforts and returned with another runner-up finish, which suggests he is ready to go one better sooner rather than later. He is joint-top on official figures, has a workable profile for this sort of Class 4 event and, crucially in a five-runner chase, his recent consistency gives him a solid edge over a couple of less reliable rivals. Tom Bellamy is a good fit for these patient, measured rides, and at 7/4 he is not exactly missed by the market, but he is still the one who makes most appeal. Bet: WIN
Betting Strategy: Keep it simple in a race of this size: Theonlywayiswessex is the win play and there is no each-way angle worth forcing with only five runners. Royal Deeside is the obvious danger on the weights if his jumping holds up under pressure, while Bahtiyar is the one who could sneak into it again without being entirely convincing as a finisher.
