Cosway Spirit expected to excel at Leicester

An all-chase card at Leicester this afternoon and Cosway Spirit (2.20) is entitled to come on for his Towcester reappearance when he ran much better than his finishing position would suggest returning from a nine-month break.

Plus Jamais has an excellent opportunity at Ayr

BetVictor sponsor the card at Ayr this afternoon and in the handicap chase over the minimum trip I felt Plus Jamais (3.50) ran well against two decent sorts over C&D last month and looks to have found an excellent opportunity for Jim Goldie and Brian Hughes.

Afternoon of jump racing from Ffos Las and Ayr

Jump racing this afternoon comes from Ffos Las and Ayr with an excellent BetVictor sponsored card at the latter and Mijhaar (3.10) taken to land the feature Best Odds Guaranteed at BatVictor.com Handicap Hurdle over two and a half miles. John Ferguson’s dual-purpose animal made a winning debut over timber last term before disappointing thereafter, albeit in much higher grade.

Pre-Christmas treat with Newbury jumps card

A wonderful pre-Xmas treat at Newbury this afternoon with a cracking jumps card including a fascinating Novices’ Handicap Chase over three miles. Oscar Fortune has been raised 2lbs since finishing runner up at Wetherby last time and this winning point-to-pointer must go close for Jonjo O’Neill.

Into the Wind set to improve at Plumpton

The New One was the star of Cheltenham’s two-day International meeting winning the feature 2m Hurdle for Sam and Nigel Twiston-Davies. The 6-y-o tasted success at the festival in 2012 winning the Neptune Novices’ Hurdle and was perhaps unlucky when hampered in last season’s Champion Hurdle in the spring.
