Sedgefield 16:15
Download The betvickers.com App Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)
Winner £4,193, 2nd £1,932, 3rd £966, 4th £484
4yo+, 6 Runners
Jumps,Turf , 2m 3f 188y , GOOD (GoingStick: 5.6) (Watering) (Rail Movements: 4.15 & 6.25 -4yds, 4.50 +36yds, 5.25 & 7.25 -6yds, 5.55 +56yds and 6.55 +38yds)
1. Maggies Boy – Best odds: 5/1 – bet365
Notched a couple of respectable efforts in recent months, including a close second at this level two starts ago. Sean Quinlan continues in the saddle, and if reproducing that runner-up display, he’s a definite contender in this company.
2. Sage Conseil – Best odds: 5/2 – Betvictor
An Irish raider with decent hurdles form who caught the eye when finishing second in a recent spin. Ben Harvey takes over, and the stable’s runners often make an impact when crossing the water. A major threat if repeating his previous effort.
3. Solent Gateway – Best odds: 4/1 – Unibet
A consistent performer who has shown promise since switching to hurdles. Formerly useful on the Flat, he’s still learning over obstacles, but with Brian Hughes aboard and cheekpieces retained, he looks one of the likelier types to feature.
4. Willie Shake Hands – Best odds: 15/8 – bet365
Knocking firmly on the door with a trio of placed efforts and arrives with the strongest recent form. Jonathan England remains in the irons for the Sam England yard, and this could be the day he finally gets his head in front. Clear chance on figures.
5. Ena’s Choice – Best odds: 200/1 – Betvictor
Pulled up on sole appearance and arrives with nothing in the formbook to suggest involvement here. Edward Austin claims 5lb, but even with the weight allowance, this looks a huge task against far more proven rivals.
6. Celestial Reign – Best odds: 13/2 – Unibet
This four-year-old was brought down on debut, so remains something of an unknown quantity. Emma Smith-Chaston takes the ride again, and any market support would be notable. Open to improvement, but risky after such a setback.
Verdict
The most reliable recent performances belong to Willie Shake Hands, who has gone close on multiple occasions and looks well-placed to go one better here. Sage Conseil brings some solid Irish form and will be a danger if travelling smoothly through the race. Solent Gateway continues to progress and might reward each-way support under a top pilot. The nod goes to the Sam England-trained runner, who has done little wrong of late and deserves his turn in the winner’s enclosure.

Sedgefield 16:50
MW Paving & Groundworks Handicap Hurdle (Go North Brindisi Breeze Series Qualifier)
Winner £3,248, 2nd £1,494, 3rd £747, 4th £374, 5th £186
4yo+, 12 Runners
Jumps,Turf , 3m 3f 9y , GOOD TO SOFT (GoingStick: 5.7) (Rail movements: 1.35, 3.05 & 3.35 -38yds, 2.05 -52yds, 2.35 +22yds, 4.05 +28yds and 4.35 -34yds)
1. Nonbinding – Best odds: 40/1 – Betvictor
This veteran of the game returns after pulling up in each of his last four starts. Pippa Brown takes 7lb off, but it’s difficult to make a case on current evidence. Would be a surprise if he turned the formbook upside down.
2. Fearless Action – Best odds: 11/4 – bet365
Found success here two outings ago but couldn’t follow up last time. Brian Hughes is back in the saddle, which is always a positive, and the return to this course might reignite a stronger showing. Definite player on his best.
3. Lahire – Best odds: 13/2 – Unibet
Has threatened to win a race for a while without quite delivering. The Donald McCain-trained 5yo has shown glimpses of ability, and with Theo Gillard claiming, he might sneak into the places if keeping errors at bay.
4. Mutual Respect – Best odds: 15/8 – bet365
Holding form better than most in this field, with a win and multiple placings over recent starts. Jack Tudor continues the partnership, and he looks well set to deliver another bold effort if handling the weight rise. The one to beat on recent evidence.
5. Cawthorne Cracker – Best odds: 11/2 – Betvictor
Has shown ability in patches and won over course and distance previously. Tends to mix good efforts with lesser ones, but Toby Wynne’s claim helps, and if he puts it all together, he can feature in the closing stages.
6. Conquer The Breeze – Best odds: 9/1 – Unibet
Returned to some kind of form last time with a third-place finish after a string of poor runs. Charlie Price takes 3lb off again, and if building on that effort, he’s not without a squeak in this grade.
7. Royal Max – Best odds: 13/2 – bet365
Rarely runs a bad race and continues to pick up minor money without getting his nose in front. Sean Quinlan knows him well, and the step back to this trip might help. A consistent type who could reward each-way support.
Verdict
Mutual Respect arrives in top shape and looks the most reliable option in a field lacking depth. Fearless Action has course-winning form and is expected to challenge strongly if bouncing back. Royal Max continues to knock on the door and shouldn’t be overlooked for place purposes. The selection is the Aprahamian-trained 9yo, who has been running with credit and has a great chance to return to the winner’s enclosure.

Sedgefield 17:25
Vickers.Bet Handicap Chase (Go North One Man Series Qualifier) (GBB Race)
Winner £4,700, 2nd £2,163, 3rd £1,081, 4th £541, 5th £270
5yo+, 6 Runners
Jumps,Turf , 2m 77y , GOOD TO SOFT (GoingStick: 5.7) (Rail movements: 1.35, 3.05 & 3.35 -38yds, 2.05 -52yds, 2.35 +22yds, 4.05 +28yds and 4.35 -34yds)
1. Bodygroove – Best odds: 9/2 – Betvictor
Made a breakthrough two outings back and was running with credit again when unseating last time. Joshua Thompson’s 7lb claim lightens the load, and with that recent win fresh in the memory, this 5yo could remain competitive if keeping things tidy over his hurdles.
2. Lawmans Blis – Best odds: 5/1 – Unibet
Backed up a solid win with a decent fourth last time, suggesting he’s in good heart. Sean Quinlan takes the reins again, and the Candlish-trained gelding clearly handles this circuit well. Should go close if he can travel strongly through the first half.
3. Trailblazer – Best odds: 5/2 – bet365
Has put together a consistent sequence without getting his nose in front. Brian Hughes is back aboard, and the application of blinkers and tongue-tie once again could help sharpen his focus. Has every chance of featuring if conditions suit.
4. Miaswell – Best odds: 7/1 – Betvictor
Still relatively unexposed and likely to have more to offer in time. Theo Gillard keeps the partnership intact, and Donald McCain’s yard has been among the winners recently. Might run better than his current odds suggest.
5. Pub Crawl – Best odds: 2/1 – bet365
David Pipe’s charge almost landed the spoils here back in October and returns off the same mark. With Jack Tudor taking the reins again, he looks the one they all have to beat if he’s ready after the layoff. His recent form figures suggest he’s knocking loudly on the door.
6. Chantilly Rose – Best odds: 40/1 – Unibet
This mare has struggled in recent starts and hasn’t shown much since returning from a break. Peter Kavanagh claims 3lb, but a lot would need to go right for her to play a significant role at the finish. Likely up against it on current form.
Verdict
Pub Crawl gets the nod after finishing a close second here last autumn. If he returns in similar shape, he could go one better in what looks a winnable race. Trailblazer remains consistent and should be thereabouts once again, while Bodygroove looks a solid each-way option if staying on his feet. Our preference is for Pipe’s runner, who can strike off a workable mark with conditions to suit.

Sedgefield 17:55
Vickers.Bet Independent Family Owned Bookmakers Handicap Hurdle (Cab On Target Qualifier) (Div I)
Winner £3,248, 2nd £1,494, 3rd £747, 4th £374, 5th £186
4yo+, 10 Runners
Jumps,Turf , 2m 3f 188y , GOOD TO SOFT (GoingStick: 5.7) (Rail movements: 1.35, 3.05 & 3.35 -38yds, 2.05 -52yds, 2.35 +22yds, 4.05 +28yds and 4.35 -34yds)
Super Saint – 6/4 (bet365)
Showed clear signs of improvement when finishing third in a strongly run novice event at Taunton. Making his first appearance in handicap company, he has the potential to step forward again and be a major player.
Maggies Boy – 10/1 (BetVictor)
Yet to make a big impression in his outings so far, but his most recent efforts suggest he may have more to offer. Needs to take a step forward to trouble the main contenders.
Love True – 5/2 (Unibet)
Has been running well in novice hurdles, including a runner-up finish last time out. If handling the switch to handicaps, he looks capable of challenging for top honours.
Independent Jimmy – 11/2 (bet365)
Consistently hitting the frame without getting his head in front. If finding further improvement, he could be a solid each-way contender.
Far Away West – 6/1 (BetVictor)
Has produced some decent efforts in similar company, though his finishing effort has sometimes lacked conviction. If he stays on strongly, he could be in the mix.
Chester Tonik – 20/1 (Unibet)
Has struggled for form this season, finishing down the field in several outings. A significant improvement is needed for him to make an impact.
Verdict
Super Saint makes his handicap debut off what looks a workable mark, and with further progress likely, he can take advantage of this opportunity. Love True has shown enough promise to pose a serious challenge, while Independent Jimmy has been a consistent performer and should not be overlooked. Far Away West also has the potential to get involved if he finds a stronger finish than in previous outings.

Sedgefield 18:25
Vickers.Bet Independent Family Owned Bookmakers Handicap Hurdle (Cab On Target Qualifier) (Div II)
Winner £3,248, 2nd £1,494, 3rd £747, 4th £374, 5th £186
4yo+, 9 Runners
Jumps,Turf , 2m 3f 188y , GOOD TO SOFT (GoingStick: 5.7) (Rail movements: 1.35, 3.05 & 3.35 -38yds, 2.05 -52yds, 2.35 +22yds, 4.05 +28yds and 4.35 -34yds)
Let’s Go Joe (9/4)
Best Odds: Bet365
Let’s Go Joe has been a consistent performer in recent outings and has shown a strong affinity for this course. The 7-year-old gelding, trained by Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero, is in good form and with Henry Brooke in the saddle, it’s expected to put in a solid performance.
Verdict: Well placed to challenge for the win. Likely to be a contender throughout the race.
Flighttothestars (7/2)
Best Odds: Unibet
Flighttothestars has displayed decent form in previous races, although it has not always been at the top level. The 5-year-old will be aiming for a better run under Micheal Nolan’s guidance. With improvement, it could certainly threaten the front-runners.
Verdict: A solid contender for a top 3 finish, but may fall short of a win.
Born In The West (4/1)
Best Odds: Betvictor
Born In The West has shown promise in some of its earlier races but has been inconsistent. Still, under Jonathan England’s guidance, there is potential for an improved performance here.
Verdict: Could be in the mix for a place finish, but unlikely to challenge for the win unless there’s a change in form.
Mr Globalist (20/1)
Best Odds: Bet365
Mr Globalist has struggled to find form in recent races, with a series of disappointing performances. However, it cannot be entirely ruled out, especially with Sean Quinlan on board.
Verdict: A long shot for the win, but a place finish is not out of the question if there is a dramatic improvement.
Devon Skies (6/1)
Best Odds: Betvictor
Devon Skies has been competitive in similar races and has been showing steady form. With Joe Williamson in the saddle and a solid trainer in Philip Kirby, this one has a good chance to challenge for a top 3 finish.
Verdict: Could be in the mix for a strong finish, with a real chance for a place.
Benefit Ben (12/1)
Best Odds: Bet365
Benefit Ben has not been at its best in recent outings, but there are flashes of potential. Danny McMenamin will need to coax a better performance, but if the horse can find its stride, it could feature in the placings.
Verdict: Unlikely to win, but could be a candidate for a place if the conditions suit.
Bridgetjoans (9/2)
Best Odds: Unibet
Bridgetjoans has shown some competitive spirit in recent races, but it has not always been able to convert that into a win. With Charlie Maggs on board, the 6-year-old is capable of showing improvement and could challenge for the top spots.
Verdict: Expected to be a strong contender for a place, but winning might be a bit of a stretch.
Ebendi (33/1)
Best Odds: Betvictor
Ebendi has not shown much in terms of form recently, and despite having some ability, it is unlikely to make a big impact in this race.
Verdict: Very much an outsider, unlikely to trouble the leaders.
Horizon Dove (25/1)
Best Odds: Bet365
Horizon Dove has had a tough season and is struggling to find form. This will likely be a race too competitive for the 8-year-old to make any significant impact.
Verdict: A very long shot with little chance of finishing near the top.
Verdict
Let’s Go Joe is our pick for the win, while Flighttothestars and Devon Skies are good options for a place. Born In The West could surprise if others falter.

Sedgefield 18:55
Mary & Smokey Reed Wedding Anniversary Handicap Chase (Go North Monet’s Garden Series Qualifier)
Winner £3,248, 2nd £1,494, 3rd £747, 4th £374, 5th £186
5yo+, 7 Runners
Jumps,Turf , 2m 3f 65y , GOOD TO SOFT (GoingStick: 5.7) (Rail movements: 1.35, 3.05 & 3.35 -38yds, 2.05 -52yds, 2.35 +22yds, 4.05 +28yds and 4.35 -34yds)
I’m Too Tired (4/1)
Best Odds: Bet365
Despite his name, I’m Too Tired showed significant improvement in recent runs and is coming off a solid performance. With a decent handicap rating and Sean Quinlan on board, he looks set to be one of the primary challengers in this race.
Verdict: A top contender for the win, likely to be near the front for most of the race.
Pilgrims King (7/2)
Best Odds: Betvictor
Pilgrims King comes into this race in solid form and looks to be well-handicapped. Having previously shown improvement when finishing third at Fakenham, he should have the tools to challenge for the victory here under Shane Fenelon.
Verdict: One of the leading contenders for the win, with solid chances to hit the front.
Ceolwulf (13/2)
Best Odds: Unibet
Ceolwulf has been a bit inconsistent but has shown glimpses of potential. While not always finishing at the top, the 9-year-old has the experience to handle competitive races. With Nathan Moscrop in the saddle, he could surprise in the latter stages.
Verdict: Has the potential to feature in the top 3, but winning might be a stretch unless there’s a significant improvement.
Beat The Edge (3/1)
Best Odds: Bet365
Beat The Edge has been in good form and appears well-positioned for a solid performance in this race. The 8-year-old gelding is consistent and, under Emma Smith-Chaston’s ride, could be a serious threat.
Verdict: Likely to be one of the frontrunners and a strong contender for the win.
Bebside Banter (3/1)
Best Odds: Betvictor
Bebside Banter has delivered some strong runs, particularly over similar distances and conditions. With Danny McMenamin in the saddle, the 8-year-old looks ready to challenge for the top spots and is one of the key players in this race.
Verdict: Likely to be involved in the finish, with good prospects for a place or even a win.
Confidential Gossip (16/1)
Best Odds: Bet365
Confidential Gossip has had mixed form and will need to step up significantly to be a factor here. With a tendency to fall short in past races, it’s hard to see him challenging for the top spots.
Verdict: More of an outsider in this field, unlikely to make a serious push for the win.
Pure Surf (22/1)
Best Odds: Unibet
Pure Surf has shown a bit of promise, but is still searching for consistency. The 9-year-old will need a career-best performance to trouble the leaders, and with a large field, it’s unlikely that he will make a significant impact.
Verdict: An outsider with slim chances to challenge for a place finish.
Verdict
Beat The Edge is the most likely winner, with Bebside Banter and I’m Too Tired as key challengers. Pilgrims King should not be discounted and might be a good choice for a place finish.
