Weatherbys nhstallions.co.uk Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

 Winner £5,991, 2nd £2,760, 3rd £1,379, 4th £691

 5yo+, 3 Runners

 Jumps,Turf , 2m 75y , GOOD, Good to firm in places (GoingStick: 7.7) (Watering to maintain) (Rail Movements: 2.45 & 3.20 +96yds, 3.55 +124yds and 5.05 +76yds)

1. Yes Indeed – Best Odds: 4/6 with Bet365

Bookmaker: Bet365
Arrives on the back of an authoritative win and looks to have found his stride again. That recent victory was well-earned, and he had plenty left in the tank. Now burdened with top weight, but remains the one they all need to catch if repeating that effort.


2. Famoso – Best Odds: 2/1 with BetMGM

Bookmaker: BetMGM
A reliable sort who has held his form nicely over recent months, collecting a couple of wins along the way. Rarely runs a bad race, and his versatility has allowed him to remain competitive. Likely to give his running again, though may find one too strong late on.


3. Dexter – Best Odds: 9/2 with Betvictor

Bookmaker: Betvictor
Has been largely off the radar for a while but hinted at a possible return to better things when fourth last time. Has struggled to find rhythm over fences in previous outings, yet still has untapped potential. Not out of it if able to sharpen up his jumping.

Verdict

While Yes Indeed is likely to prove popular again following his most recent success, the slight preference goes to Famoso, who has been ultra-consistent and might capitalise if the favourite doesn’t back up his form. Dexter is the wildcard — capable of surprising if everything clicks — but he needs to take a big step forward.

Happy Birthday Jo Handicap Chase

 Winner £5,624, 2nd £2,588, 3rd £1,294, 4th £648, 5th £323

 4yo+, 14 Runners

 Jumps,Turf , 3m 1f 170y , GOOD, Good to firm in places (GoingStick: 7.4) (Watering)

1. Iris Des Issards – Best Odds: 5/4 with Bet365

Bookmaker: Bet365
Showed signs of life when finishing fourth after a poor run of form and looks well treated based on earlier exploits. Has often promised more than delivered, but this drop in class could finally provide the breakthrough. Likely to be on many shortlists.


2. Boskill Borden – Best Odds: 6/1 with Betvictor

Bookmaker: Betvictor
Struggled to build on early-season promise and has been well held on his latest efforts. Drops slightly in the ratings and gets a change of headgear today, which might bring improvement. A tentative each-way shout if the market speaks in his favour.


3. Zufal – Best Odds: 25/1 with BetMGM

Bookmaker: BetMGM
Hard to recommend on recent showings, having failed to complete or land a blow in his last few runs. Capable of better on his day, but those performances are becoming increasingly distant. Needs a drastic turnaround to feature.


4. Johannes – Best Odds: 14/1 with Bet365

Bookmaker: Bet365
Has failed to complete the course in three of his last four appearances and appears in deep waters again. Yet to truly adapt to this level and the blinkers haven’t sparked a response. Faces another uphill challenge this afternoon.


**5. She Has Notions – NR

Non-runner
Was among the more intriguing entrants based on past efforts but has been withdrawn from the contest.


**6. Stage Show – NR

Non-runner
Previously considered one of the longshots with place potential, but has been scratched from the line-up.


7. Sevenofus – Best Odds: 3/1 with Bet365

Bookmaker: Bet365
Has been running with credit of late, picking up a couple of minor placings. Doesn’t win often but stays well and is nicely weighted to go close again. If building on his recent consistency, could be the one to give the favourite most to do.


8. The Wire Flyer – Best Odds: 25/1 with BetMGM

Bookmaker: BetMGM
Little to get excited about from recent efforts, having pulled up on multiple occasions. Did manage a remote fourth at one point but has since regressed. Easy enough to oppose on current form unless the first-time blinkers ignite a spark.

Verdict

Although Iris Des Issards looks the class act in this field, his price is short enough given his inconsistent profile. Sevenofus has the benefit of race fitness and form in similar contests and makes the most appeal from a betting perspective. Boskill Borden could pick up the pieces if bouncing back to earlier promise, but the vote goes to the consistent performer at a more workable price.

Newton Abbot 15:20

Visit Our Antiques And Collectables Fair Handicap Hurdle

 Winner £5,624, 2nd £2,588, 3rd £1,294, 4th £648, 5th £323

 3yo+, 9 Runners

 Jumps,Turf , 2m 167y , GOOD, Good to firm in places (GoingStick: 7.4) (Watering)

1. Dawn’s Desire – Best Odds: 100/1 with BetMGM

Bookmaker: BetMGM
Unseated rider on debut before trailing home well beaten next time out. Still very raw and without any real evidence to suggest immediate improvement. Others look significantly more likely to figure.


2. Gorcombe Blueskye – Best Odds: 100/1 with Betvictor

Bookmaker: Betvictor
Another from the Robert Walford stable, but even less to go on than her stablemate. Pulled up on her only outing and now steps up in trip, but there’s no substantial case to make unless massive progress is forthcoming.


3. Jokers ‘n’ Clowns – Best Odds: 9/2 with Bet365

Bookmaker: Bet365
Had a few chances and while her overall profile is patchy, there’s been some encouragement in parts. Her recent midfield finish was respectable enough and she’s more battle-hardened than many in this field. Could take a hand if the front pair underperform.


4. Merry Shuil – Best Odds: 7/4 with BetMGM

Bookmaker: BetMGM
Showed potential in a bumper last season and shaped okay when midfield on her hurdles return. Open to improvement, especially with top jockey booked, and likely to strip fitter now. Should be involved if building on that seasonal debut.


5. Mighty Fleur – Best Odds: 10/11 with Bet365

Bookmaker: Bet365
Looks the standout on paper with a pair of placed efforts behind her this term. Travelled powerfully when runner-up over a similar trip last time and this represents a good opportunity to go one better. Yard is in good form, and she’s the one they’ll all need to get past.


6. Northern Symphonie – Best Odds: 20/1 with Betvictor

Bookmaker: Betvictor
Has had a few goes without threatening the principals and is now fitted with a hood once more. Her best effort so far came at this venue, which may offer a slight angle, but the form lacks depth and consistency. Outside claims for a minor placing.

Verdict

Mighty Fleur arrives as the most reliable option in a race that lacks proven depth. She has the best recent form and should relish this test. Merry Shuil is entitled to come on for her last outing and could be her main rival if progressing as expected. Jokers ‘n’ Clowns might sneak a place if the race becomes tactical, but the favourite holds solid claims.

Newton Abbot Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

 Winner £13,203, 2nd £6,075, 3rd £3,038, 4th £1,520, 5th £758

 4yo+, 4 Runners

 Jumps,Turf , 2m 75y , GOOD, Good to firm in places (GoingStick: 7.4) (Watering)

Catch Him Derry (9/4, bet365)
With a strong recent record, including three wins from his last five starts, Catch Him Derry seems poised for another solid performance under Harry Skelton. Trainer Dan Skelton’s guidance adds to his appeal.

El Granjero (4/1, Betvictor)
A consistent performer, El Granjero is coming off back-to-back wins and appears in excellent form. Richard Patrick is in the saddle for Clive Boultbee-Brooks, adding confidence for a strong race.

Shallow River (5/1, Unibet)
Known for consistent runs, Shallow River is backed by solid form under Sean Bowen. The Olly Murphy stable has prepared him well for this challenge.

Canty Bay (13/2, bet365)
Often reliable in similar handicaps, Canty Bay looks primed for another solid showing. Tom Bellamy’s partnership with Emma Lavelle gives this horse a good chance in the lineup.

Itseemslikeit (15/2, Betvictor)
Lightly raced and with promise, Itseemslikeit enters with potential to surprise, especially under Jack Tudor and David Pipe’s careful management.

Astronomic View (8/1, Unibet)
Displaying recent form, Astronomic View has been competitive and could prove valuable here. Lucy Gardner’s ride adds to Sue Gardner’s solid training background.

Bertie Wooster (8/1, bet365)
A consistent runner, Bertie Wooster often places well and could hold his own here with Brendan Powell guiding him for Joe Tizzard.

Flight Deck (20/1, Unibet)
Though slightly out of form, Flight Deck is a seasoned competitor. Chris Ward’s three-pound claim may help this veteran find his stride.

Golden Whisky (33/1, Betvictor)
Back after a layoff, Golden Whisky is a long shot but could benefit from Eleanor Williams’ claim, representing Evan Williams’ seasoned training approach.

Verdict

Catch Him Derry stands out with impressive form and backing from the Skelton team, making him a strong contender. El Granjero and Shallow River are likely to mount serious challenges, promising an exciting race.

 Winner £5,888, 2nd £2,709, 3rd £1,355, 4th £678, 5th £338

Doyouknowwhatimean (11/4, bet365)
A recent winner in his last starts, Doyouknowwhatimean is looking sharp under Harry Skelton. Dan Skelton’s skilled training is likely to keep him competitive in this field.

Sherborne (3/1, Betvictor)
With a strong record and notable second place on his last outing, Sherborne is in solid form and should perform well with Freddie Gingell guiding him.

Clonakilty (9/2, Unibet)
A proven competitor, Clonakilty has a commendable form record, and Sean Bowen aboard for Olly Murphy further boosts his chances here.

Livin On Luco (6/1, bet365)
Consistent with several recent good runs, Livin On Luco could be in the mix, especially with Callum Pritchard claiming 7lbs for added advantage.

Pachacuti (13/2, Betvictor)
Showed promise by securing a win in his last start, and Jack Tudor’s presence will be beneficial as David Pipe’s charge looks to build on his recent success.

Knowwhentoholdem (8/1, Unibet)
A capable performer, Knowwhentoholdem has shown flashes of form, and James Bowen’s experience could guide him to a strong finish.

Minella Blueway (12/1, bet365)
Despite a modest recent performance, Minella Blueway remains a decent each-way option under Adam Wedge, especially if he finds his best form.

Verdict

Doyouknowwhatimean holds a competitive edge with recent wins and Harry Skelton aboard, making him a top contender. Sherborne and Clonakilty also bring strong form, ensuring a tightly contested race.

Supreme Malinas (11/4, bet365)
Supreme Malinas has been performing impressively, with a recent first-place finish under Harry Skelton. Trained by Dan Skelton, he’s expected to be a strong contender here.

Gentleman Toboot (3/1, Betvictor)
This runner showed promise with a previous win and has Jack Tudor taking the reins for trainer David Pipe. A solid choice with a chance to place highly.

Kosac D’Oudairies (4/1, Unibet)
Kosac D’Oudairies returns after an encouraging debut victory. Gavin Sheehan partners him today, and he has potential to make a strong impact.

Fortunate Fella (13/2, bet365)
Paul Nicholls’ charge, Fortunate Fella, has shown consistency with several placed efforts and could step up with Ben Bromley in the saddle.

Idaho Sun (8/1, Betvictor)
Under Bryan Carver’s guidance, Idaho Sun is one to watch. His recent runs hint at improvement, and Harry Fry’s training may bring him into contention.

Elysian Knight (10/1, Unibet)
Trained by Neil Mulholland, Elysian Knight has a few solid finishes and, with James Bowen riding, might surprise in this field.

Copper Jack (14/1, bet365)
An outside shot, Copper Jack returns after a break with Sean Bowen aboard. He has some past form that could make him a viable long-shot option.

Verdict

Supreme Malinas stands out with a strong form profile and excellent support from Harry Skelton. Gentleman Toboot and Kosac D’Oudairies also have the potential to challenge closely in this lineup.
