MARCH TO VICTORY
MARCH IS ON (3.45) can put his best foot forward for Jonjo O’Neill on a cracking card at Exeter.
A fair novice, the six-year-old caught the eye when giving the classy Daydream Aulmes a fright on his handicap bow at Warwick in December.
The gelding was staying on strongly over 2m 5f and this progressive hurdler can go one better for his thriving handler.
TRUCKERS LODGE (2.45) can make his class tell for Paul Nicholls in the novices’ hurdle. The gelding will take some stopping with any repeat of his second to Nadaitak in a Doncaster Grade Two.
Punters will be raising a glass to PINK GIN (4.15) after he lands the novices’ handicap chase.
Nigel Twiston-Davies’s gelding put in a personal best over fences when bolting up at Wincanton and can make all under a low weight. Stuart Edmunds’s
PINE WARBLER (4.45) can defy a welter burden in a tight handicap chase.
The gelding benefited from wind surgery when a good second to The Ogle Gogle
Man at Uttoxeter and remains open to progress over fences.
Clean up with Richard Hawker’s PARLOUR MAID (5.15) in the gg.co.uk Handicap Chase. The mare can make it a treble after beating Quantum of Solace at Market Rasen.
ARCTIC ROAD (2.0) can strike for in-form Oliver Greenall at Newcastle. The gelding relished the drop to 2m 5f when scoring at Ayr and can follow up due to Ross Turner’s 7lb claim. Henry Oliver can strike with
THE CRAZED MOON (3.0) in the two-mile hurdle. The mare completed a hat-trick with minimum fuss at Uttoxeter and is fairly treated under talented 7lb claimer Jason Dixon.
CHASE THE WIND (2.30) can land a trappy handicap chase for trainer Joanne Foster. The 10-year-old gave a thriving
Sideways most resistance over 3m 2f at Sedgefield and should be even better over three miles. Twiston-Davies’s JUGE ET
PARTI (4.0) is the call in a competitive novice hurdle.
The grey handled dropping to 2m 5f well when second to
Morning Vicar at Ludlow and can open his account over timber.
Jockey Richard Johnson expects to return to the saddle on Thursday after a heavy fall at Newbury last Saturday.
