A D’AM GOOD CHOICE

- BY GARRY OWEN

CHERIE D’AM (2:30) can reign for Dan Skelton in the Jane Seymour Novices’ Hurdle at Sandown.

The mare stayed upwardly mobile when caning Golden Glance on her handicap bow at Aintree. That was a classy display so the bay can take this promotion to Grade 2 level in her stride.

The leading trainer can double up with ETALON (1:55) in the Ubique Chase. The seven-year-old improved again when showing Salamanca Bay no mercy at Warwick.

The gelding looks open to plenty more progress so can land this stronger contest.

DOUGLAS DC (1:20) is set to soar for Tony Carroll in the conditiona­ls’ hurdle.

The gelding got his act together when giving Georgi Girl most resistance over track and trip.

The six-year-old is fairly treated so can go one better for his thriving connection­s.

FARCEUR DU LARGE (3:05) can boost his superb course record for Jamie Snowdon.

ANIMAL (4:15) looks fierce in the Alanbrooke Handicap Chase. The gelding ran another stormer when second to

Movethecha­ins at Lingfield.

The eight-year-old likes this venue so should shade a competitiv­e contest.

WAL BUCK’S (4:46) can land the novices’ handicap hurdle for Lucinda Russell. The five-year-old raised his game when chinned by Dominic’s Fault at Leicester.

The gelding was staying on strongly so can cash in on a fair opening mark up in trip.

FATHERS ADVICE (3:25) is a wise choice in the Quinnbet. com Chase at Newcastle.

Mike Smith’s bay improved for a drop to two miles when second to Six One Nine here.

That is excellent form so the seven-year-old can take advantage of an inviting mark. The Ayrshire ace can add the Quinnbet Hurdle too with

FOLLOW CHARLIE (4:35).

The gelding relished tackling 2m 4f when bolting up from

Lewa House at Ayr and can strike again up in class.

CLASSIC MAESTRO (4:00) will call the tune for Jennie Candlish in the handicap hurdle. The gelding has a 6lb penalty but built on some good efforts when routing Copper Cove at Uttoxeter.
