CHARMING ACCENT

- BY GARRY OWEN

SCOTTISH ACCENT (2.40) should do the business for Rebecca Menzies on a competitiv­e Carlisle card.

The eight-year-old routed Central Flame over track and trip 17 days ago.

That race is working out extremely well so the gelding can deny his old rival again.

GAMESTERS ICON (12.30) looks poised to extend Oliver Greenall’s winning run in the conditiona­ls’ hurdle.

The mare ran her best race yet over timber when chasing home Fugitif over two miles at Uttoxter. The six-year-old was staying on strongly that day so should go one better upped almost four furlongs.

EVITA DU MESNIL (1.0) can call the tune in a competitiv­e mares novices’ hurdle.

Daragh Bourke’s horse outpointed Bingo D’olivate over course and distance last month. The grey is open to progress so can defy a 6lb hike in a slightly stronger contest.

CRYPTO (1.30) should give Venetia Williams more glory here in the novices’ chase.

The seven-year-old was an eye-catching third to Silver In Disguise on his fencing bow at Chepstow. The gelding has a bright future in this sphere so stands to open his account in a fair contest.

Champion jockey Brian Hughes is a notable booking on SABBATHICA­L (3.50) in the last. Evan Williams’ gelding returned to form when third behind The Wire Flyer over hurdles at Ffos Las.

The six-year-old should be primed so can capitalise on a decent mark back over fences.

FAVORI DE SIVOLA (2.15) stands out in the MansionBet Handicap Chase at Wincanton.

Nick Williams’ gelding was denied a hat-trick over fences when unseating his rider at Hereford. The six-year-old is normally a safe jumper so looks set to atone under inform jockey Tom Scudamore.

Gary Moore is thriving so it’s worth backing CHEQUE EN BLANC (2.50) in the threemiler. The gelding ran a stormer when dismissing The Crooner over fences at Fontwell.

The nine-year-old is in cracking form so can follow up off an attractive timber mark.

Jane Williams’ ADMIRAL BALKO (4.30) should do plenty of damage in handicap hurdles after useful novice efforts.
