Quality jumping action at Southwell is accompanied by some evening flat action at Wolverhampton on Tuesday, live on Sky Sports Racing.
2.45 Southwell – Al Zaraqaan chases fourth success
The Vickers.Bet App Novices’ Limited Handicap Chase (2:45) only features the four runners and provides Sam England’s Al Zaraqan with a great chance to land a fourth straight victory.
He only had a head to spare over Sir Tivo last time out, although that rival has since won and Al Zaraqaan has been raised 4lb last time out.
Of the others, there’s a pair of chase debutants in Impulsive One and Valentino Dancer so the former will surely aim to put the experience to use.
4.25 Southwell – Hat-trick seekers take in trappy hurdle
Later on the card, both Our Scholar and Hiconic take in what is a trappy renewal of the Vickers.Bet App Handicap Hurdle (4:25).
Our Scholar gets a handy weight allowance on handicap debut and may well be the one to take advantage as a four-year-old.
The softer ground after recent rain is a slight issue for Alex Hales’ Hiconic, whilst Fergal O’Brien’s stable debutant Saccoandvanzetti also needs respecting.
8.00 Wolverhampton – Quality sprint handicap heat
Over at Dunstall Park, the Download The At The Races App Handicap (8:00) is fairly trappy and Hello Me is probably the place to start for the Joseph Parr team.
The five-year-old mare is a five-time all-weather winner who is off a mark well under her career high, so definitely warrants respect.
Looking away from her, Archie Watson’s Fifty Year Storm makes handicap debut and the daughter of Mehmas could well bid to make all from an inside draw.
