PRINCE TO CROWN IT

- BY GARRY OWEN

PRINCE DUNDEE (3.15) can reign for Lucinda Russell in the RacingTV Handicap Chase at Musselburg­h.

The gelding has improved rapidly over three miles and was unlucky to meet the useful Oscar

Ceremony at Kelso in October. That race is working out pretty well and this consistent type can go one better after a break for his shrewd trainer.

The Arlary handler can also take the conditiona­ls’ hurdle with GEMOLOGIST (12.15).

The four-year-old should relish tackling 2m 4f after her stayingon second to Fisher Green over two miles here.

UNAI (12.45) can open his account over hurdles at the first time of asking. Ben Pauling’s gelding looks an exciting recruit to timber after his good third behind Overthetop in a red-hot Warwick bumper. CASTLETOWN (1.15) can land a trappy novices’ chase for

Pauline Robson. The grey is nicely unexposed over fences after chasing home the promising Court Master over course and distance.

DEFI SACRE (1.45) can extend Richard Hobson’s winning streak in the two-miler.

The eight-year-old can build on his excellent second to the progressiv­e Paddy’s Poem in an above-par Fakenham chase. Keith Dalgleish’s EL

PICADOR (2.15) looks deadly in a fascinatin­g introducto­ry hurdle. I doubt we’ve seen the best of this juvenile who was an eye-catching second to George Ridsdale on debut here. THECLOCKIS­TICKING (2.45) can time it to perfection in the three-miler. Stuart Edmunds’ hurdler is useful at best and shaped like his turn was near when third on his return at Kempton.

THE LACEMAKER (1.30) can maintain his recent revival on the Ling field all-weather. Milton Harris’ sprinter remains welltreate­d after last month’s comfortabl­e course-anddistanc­e defeat of Dandilon. David Loughnane’s FIZZY

FEET (2.0) won’t mind dropping back to five furlongs after his fair third over six at Wolverhamp­ton.

AEGEUS (2.30) can make a winning debut for skilled handler Jedd O’Keeffe.

The gelding can do plenty of damage in handicaps after landing a Newcastle maiden on his final start for Amanda Perrett.
