Boys Of Wexford isn't the easiest to win with, but he's been getting nearer in recent runs and this could be his day. The better ground will help him.

Dark Mystery is no superstar on the all-0weather but he is fit and well at home. If lacking a gear on the track, this race is within his capabilities and he should runa  decent race today.

La Marquise looked above average when winning on debut in soft ground at Stratford in November but disappointed in a Listed event at Cheltenham on New Year's Day. Back against her own sex next time she defied a penalty at Chepstow. This is a big step up in class but she is a smart mare…

Zainabb went well last year but was over the top when she had her final run at Newmarket. Seven furlongs on the all-weather at Southwell should suit her perfectly and I would not be surprised to see a big run from her tonight.

Ciara Pearl is from a family that tends to improve with age and do well at four. She was learning as she raced at three last year, winning once and finishing 2nd twice. On her seasonal and handicap debut we think that while she will enjoy racing over the extra couple of furlongs, she has…

Per Contra won his first two races last year and we think he'll do well as a 3yo. He's a big horse and is unlikely to be suited to Wolverhampton, but he's rated 88 and cannot get into 0-85 races so we're limited for choice. Also, I would have preferred to start him at 10f…

Champagne Piaff hasn't been seen on the track for 18 months. He won off today's mark on his penultimate run and while that was on much faster ground than today's he also had run well on soft. The trip is fine so we go there with a degree of optimism.

Profitman is getting the hang of things and he has come out of his recent Wolverhampton success in good order. Hopefully, he can cope with the 4lb higher mark to complete the quick double.

Golden Maverick was a prolific winner on the flat last year for previous connections, rated 83. and we always thought he would make a decent hurdler. After a couple of placed efforts, he comfortably won a weak race last time and looks progressive. He starts handicapping on a fair mark and should have every chance…

Desfondado ran well on his return but didn't back that up next time. He seems in great shape and it would be no surprise to see him get back on track here. A big run is expected.

Mesaafi ran with promise in both runs as a 2yo, beaten a similar distance in each. We gelded him in the autumn and from a decent draw this evening, we're hoping he can build on those performances with a run in the money.

Bated Breeze joined in the summer and his initial run in August was disappointing. The handicapper hasn't  taken any chances with his mark but we'll have a better idea on that after he runs.

Holy Fire loves Kempton and has the perfect draw today. She has been slightly below par on her last couple of starts but I was delighted with her work last week and am hopeful she is returning to form.

There's terrific prize money for this chase and we're having two stabs at it. Black Gerry has been off form this season but if he could get back to somewhere near his best, he would have to be considered.

Alain made his racecourse debut in one of the recently introduced juvenile NH hurdles. He pulled up and will need to show much more to figure in this.

Drying conditions will help Tapley who acts around the track and has the pace to hold his own in the likely strong-run race. Good ground is needed to see him at his best and good is likely to be sneaking in the going description come race time. He has a nice light weight but is…

After a couple of good runs in novice handicap hurdles off a fairly high mark around 110, it was disappointing that All Authorized failed to land long odds-on last time at Fontwell. We're not giving up on him yet and back in a handicap, we expect him to figure at the business end, hopefully for…

Profitman did a bit too much too early over 1m at Chelmsford last time. Stepping back to 7f around the sharp Wolverhampton track hopefully will suit him better. He's in good form at home.
