1.45 Beverley: IRE Incentive, It Pays To Buy Irish Restricted Novice Stakes: BUENOS DIAS should improve on his debut run here, where he ran a very respectable race to finish third of nine at Brighton earlier this month, and just a length and a quarter behind the winner. He was sent off favourite on that occasion, suggesting they hold him in fair regard, and he should be the one to beat in this particular affair for Raphael Freire and David Egan. Buenos Dias – 11/4 (Win) (NB)
3.05 Warwick: Molly Ollys Handicap Chase: GWENNIE MAY JEM is still a maiden after nine outings, however, he’s run well in several of those races, including last time out when finishing second of seven over course and distance. He remains on the same mark for this assignment and also has a further three pounds coming off his back via Tristan Durrell’s claim. He should be bang on the premises once again. Gwennie May Jem – 2/1 (Win) (NAP)
3.59 Perth: Royal Caledonian Hunt Handicap Hurdle: FLORIDA DREAMS posted a solid effort at Ayr last time out when finishing second of ten behind an impressive winner, and will contest this off just a pound higher mark. This also represents an ease in grade for him, being a Class 3 affair, having contested Class 2 events as of late, and even Graded handicaps at the start of the season. If he turns up in the same form as last time, that could be enough. Florida Dreams – 10/3 (Win)
4.12 Warwick: Wigley Investment Holdings Handicap Chase: GOD’S OWN GETAWAY arrives here on what looks like a dangerous mark for the team of Dan Skelton and Tristan Durrell, who takes off three pounds. He’s not shown his form as of late, however, will contest this off three pounds lower than his last winning mark, with a further three coming off back via his rider’s claim. He’s also back up in distance, which is likely to see him to better effect. God’s Own Getaway – 4/1 (Win)
