Today’s Chepstow meeting will be run on perfect jumping ground and the AP McCoy roadshow moves to south Wales where I expect to see him land the opener aboard Jonjo O’Neill’s Sebastian Beach (1.50) who will certainly appreciate the drying ground.

Some competitive racing at Lingfield to start the week and Gimme Five (2.15) beat Deadline Day, indeed it is, at Wolverhampton off a 7lbs lower mark when last seen back in October and might be up to defying the rise.

0 comments

The first jumps card of the season at Musselburgh will be run on good ground this afternoon although showers are forecast. Roserrow is likely to be a warm order for the Novices’ Hurdle having won at Sedgefield last time for Donald McCain but he must give 7lbs to hurdling debutant Crinkle Crags and Narcissist (1.30) with the latter getting the vote for Mick Easterby whose string are in such good form.

Musselburgh stage the flat action this afternoon and it will be disappointing if Henrytheaeroplane (2.30) can’t break his maiden at the second attempt having shaped with promise in a decent Haydock novice event won by a stablemate on debut earlier in the month.

Doncaster stage the pick of the afternoon action including a valuable Handicap for the classic generation over a mile. Only seven go to post but all have a chance including Moohaarib (3.35) who landed a Ripon maiden with the minimum of fuss last time.
