If you're looking for a big-priced horse today you could go worse than Derbaas at 25/1 in the 6.15 at Meydan. The 8-year-old won four on the bounce at the course between Nov '10 and Feb '11, culminating in a Group 2 which shot his mark up to 115. He races off 104 today with some uninspiring form figures next to his name, but he's not been beaten far and the pace angle should play to his strengths this time.

Nicky Henderson has delivered an upbeat bulletin about current Cheltenham Gold Cup favourite, Bobs Worth. Bobs Worth: Pleasing connections ahead of Cheltenham The reigning champion has not been seen out since landing the Lexus Chase at Leopardstown over Christmas and the master of Seven Barrows described himself as happy with his preparations en route to this year's Festival. Speaking at Doncaster, Henderson said: "I'm pleased with Bob. Thank goodness we got the race into him in Ireland because I would have hated to have to run him at Cheltenham the other week in that ground. "Since the Lexus he has been gradually building back up and now we'll start to get some serious work into him. "I was relieved as much as pleased with his run in Ireland, after the Betfair I was really worried but he showed everything we know he is in the Lexus. "In the Gold Cup he'll also have the advantage of the hill which we know he adores."

JCB Triumph Hurdle fancy Pearl Castle is likely to appear at either Haydock or Doncaster within the next fortnight ahead of a possible trip to the Cheltenham Festival. Pearl Castle: Set to go on trial for Cheltenham in the next fortnight The four-year-old won twice on the level for Andrew Balding and although he failed to make an impact on his jumping debut at Wetherby, he appeared much improved when striking by 16 lengths on Town Moor last month. The son of Montjeu is a best-priced 16-1 for Cheltenham and also holds an entry in the Sky Bet Supreme, but trainer John Quinn is keen to see how his charge fares on his next start before committing to either race. "He's in good shape and I'd like to get another run into him (before Cheltenham)," said Quinn. "I'll put him in the Victor Ludorum at Haydock (February 15), but he does want nice ground, so we'll have to see which way the weather goes. There is a race at Doncaster on February 19, so I might just wait and run him there." The leading dual-purpose handler is particularly strong in the juvenile hurdling division this term. French recruit Aurore D'Estruval looked the part when making a winning British debut at Wetherby last Saturday and holds entries in both the Supreme and the Triumph at Prestbury Park in March. Rutherglen is three from three over hurdles and could go for either the Triumph or the Fred Winter Juvenile Hurdle, depending on the outcome of his next start. Quinn said: "She won (Aurore D'Estruval) well, she jumps well and she's a nice mare for us to look forward to. "I'm hoping to run her somewhere next week. I'll stick her in the Victor Ludorum as well and there is also a Listed mares race at Sandown on the Friday. Her next run will tell us a bit more about where we're going with her. "Rutherglen will be in the Triumph and the Fred Winter and I'm not sure which way he'll go, but he's a nice horse and good enough to go (to Cheltenham). "He'll probably have a run next week, I'll put him in at Kelso on Thursday but if the ground is too soft I could even run him on the Flat somewhere." Quinn's fourth and final Triumph entry is last month's Doncaster winner Forced Family Fun, who is due to line up in handicap company at Musselburgh next Wednesday.

My Tent Or Yours is likely to go down the racecourse gallop route in his preparation for the Stan James Champion Hurdle after trainer Nicky Henderson ruled out a trip to Wincanton. My Tent Or Yours: Kingwell Hurdle alternatives planned A leading contender for the two-mile championship in March, the JP McManus-owned seven-year-old missed a possible engagement at Sandown because of very testing ground and the Kingwell Hurdle on Saturday week has already been ruled out for the same reason. Henderson did, however, raise the possibility of a trip to Kelso next week for the Christmas Hurdle winner if the ground is suitable. Speaking at Doncaster, Henderson said: "My Tent definitely won't go to Wincanton. "I know what the ground is like now at Wincanton and it's not going to get much better in a week. "I'm not desperate to run him and we will do it our way. He'll work at the weekend and then we'll start thinking of away days, probably at Kempton. "He may get an entry at Kelso for the Morebattle, I'll give them a ring and see what it's likely to be like."

1.50, second race
The Stewards held an enquiry into the running and riding of BENZEL (IRE), ridden by Dougie Costello and trained by Jonjo O’Neill, which made the running until weakening turning into the home straight to finish fifth, beaten 17½ lengths. They interviewed the rider and the trainer’s representative. They also received a report from the Veterinary Officer, who stated that the gelding was found to be coughing post-race. The rider stated that his instructions were to take a lead, let BENZEL (IRE) find his feet and ride him accordingly. He added that he was unable to do this as the gelding had pulled his way to the front going to the first hurdle, at which point he decided to let BENZEL (IRE) make the running in what was developing into a slow-run race. He added that the gelding was green and one-paced in the home straight. The trainer’s representative confirmed the instructions. Having heard their evidence and viewed recordings of the race the Stewards noted their explanations.

16:10 Friday 7th February Racing Tips - 07/02/2014
The big field novice handicap hurdle at Kempton looks incredibly difficult to solve and therefore irresistible to take on. Easy Beesy is of great appeal coming into this in good handicap form but that also brings an element of vulnerability against a fair few handicap debutants. Of them I really like Amber Flush at a decent price who should relish these conditions on breeding. The yard has had a rough few days but were in scintillating form prior to that and 93 should be a relatively generous handicap mark. If this was on better ground I'd be with In The Gate, and Hot Whisky is one that has dropped to a feasible mark. Pick of them and also dropping to a mark she can exploit is Grace And Fortune at 14/1 for a yard still hovering just above the cold list. Richard Rowe sent out a winner in November after a having a quiet time of it and then another in December before a blank January. This mare will love the ground though and is of interest having found last time out at Plumpton a little far. **Having just seen the selection is a non-runner, it looks well worth taking the 25/1 about Amber Flush on handicap debut. Kempton 15.05 - Amber Flush 1pt e/w
Summery Justice will probably win the staying chase but it is more competitive than may first appear and I'm not keen on 7/2. I'd love Court Victory to win on handicap debut given the promise he sowed as a youngster before 2 years off. It was a modest return in a very good chase at Warwick but he still looks risky at 11/4. If Diana Grissell and David Arbruthnot were in any sort of form then their runners have a shout, especially Arbeo who will love conditions but that stable is very much on the cold list. All in all their are plenty with chances and none more so than Chartreux for a yard that keep chipping away with winners. He drops massively in grade from the Welsh National last time and Becher Chase before that and this is far more realistic. Heavy ground is virtually a must and he is just 1lb higher than his last success. He went very close off higher marks at the end of last season on ground drier than ideal and I'm genuinely surprised he is anywhere near 12/1. I hope something takes them along as he will need a good test but heavy ground at Kempton is more of a stamina sapper than it's given credit for and he'll need every bit of this. Kempton 16.10 - Chartreux 1pt e/w

NOTEBOOK.
We highlight a selection of the runners from the past week’s races who may be ones to watch out for in future races.
While THE LAST BRIDGE may not be a star in the making, he looks one capable of following up his latest win, in a 3m ½f handicap chase at Southwell this week, given his relative lack of experience over fences and scope for improvement. Trained by Susan Johnson, The Last Bridge is a seven-year-old Milan gelding who won and finished second in his first two starts over fences last spring. On the last of those two starts, when second at Chepstow, the winner followed up two starts later off an 11lb higher handicap rating, suggesting there’s some sub- stance to the form. A seven-month break fol- lowed for The Last Bridge, who reappeared in October for the first of two runs in handicap hurdles, in which he looked in need of the run first time out and then outpaced on the second occasion. The Last Bridge's latest performance, back over fences, was hardly flawless, but he stayed on well from the rear in the heavy ground and won by eight lengths from a con- sistent runner-up. Although the handicapper will surely take action, given that this was only The Last Bridge's third run over fences, there could be more to come at a similarly modest level, when conditions favour those with an abundance of stamina. Also at Southwell, in the 2m 4½f novices' handicap hurdle, hurdle debutant SPYDER im- pressed in finishing second to a useful-looking mare, who had a bit of Listed form to her name, and also ahead of a more experienced horse, officially rated 123. Now trained by Lucy Wadham, Spyder was formerly trained on the Flat by Jane Chapple-Hyam, achieving a peak rating under that code of 76, and won an 8f maiden in heavy ground at Nottingham. On this latest start, in being beaten two and three-quarter lengths by the winner, who was sent off at 4/6, Spyder could have been said to have exceeded expectations with this first run over hurdles. Also, as the first three fin- ished well clear of the rest of the field, he's done enough to suggest he can make his mark over hurdles this season. On the same card, in the 2m N.H. novices' hur- dle, there was much to like about the perform- ance of the Venetia Williams-trained runner-up VIVACCIO , who looked outpaced by the winner from the second-last, but kept on at the one pace. A winner over hurdles in France last year, over 2m 3f, Vivaccio pulled up on his sta- ble debut at Leicester and this run at South- well marked only his second outing this season. There could be a bit more to come with racing. In the same race, the Nigel Twiston-Davies- trained MISSION TO MARS ran well to finish third given that he's probably going to be a staying chaser in the fullness of time. By Presenting and from a family of 3m chasers, it was no surprise to see him doing his best work at the close, so, while he will surely jump a fence in the future, as this was his third start over hurdles, he will now qualify for a handi- cap mark and he could be of interest if stepped up in trip over timber this season.

STAT WATCH.
While form can only tell you what's happened previously, having an idea of which trainers are currently in form, or which jockeys have the best record at a certain racecourse, can help you to keep on the win- ning track. With relevance to this Saturday's televised races, this column highlights the current trends.
Channel 4 is dividing its racing coverage this Sat- urday between the Jumps meetings from Newbury (1.50, 2.25, 3.00 and 3.35) and Warwick (2.05 and 2.40). Keep an eye out for any mounts at either meeting of jockey Aidan Coleman. Most commonly seen riding for Venetia Williams, Cole- man has been in impressive form in the past week (to Monday, 3 February), riding 6 winners from 20 rides, equating to a strike rate of 30%. Richard Johnson enjoyed another consistent week, riding 4 winners and chalking up a decent 23% strike rate, while Ryan Mania also deserves a mention for his 3 wins from 8 rides, providing a 37.5% strike rate, the leading figure for the week. Trainer Venetia Williams has been enjoying a pur- ple patch with her runners in the same period, with 6 winners from 17 runs and a 35% strike rate enough to see her top the UK trainers' table by both measurements. Nicky Henderson wasn't far off by either reckoning, saddling 5 winners and recording a 31% strike rate. Newbury is one of the closest racecourses to Nicky Henderson's Seven Barrows yard and the reigning champion trainer will surely have a few runners at this Saturday's meeting. In general terms, Nicky has saddled 49 winners there in the past five seasons, second only to his main rival Paul Nicholls, who just has the edge with a total of 51 winners. Henderson's Triolo D'Alene has a fair chance in the Denman Chase (2.25); the trainer has a 27% general strike rate in the past 14 days and his charge has winning form on the expected soft ground, at this course and over 3m, all of which suggests he may run well. Paul Nicholls's Tidal Bay loves testing ground and has won over distance, too. In the 3.00, the Grade 2 Game Spirit Chase, Paul Nicholls' unbeaten chaser Dodging Bullets has the stats to suggest he will run well, with winning form over distance, at the course and on the expected ground. Alternatively, Tom George's Module has a similar record in the conditions, although the trainer's runners have generally been in quiet form lately. The big race of the afternoon is the Betfair Hurdle (3.35) at Newbury, a Grade 3, 2m handicap hurdle. Paul Nicholls won this race in 2012 with Zarkandar, and he has several options in this race, including the well-regarded and progressive novice hurdler Irving, the Triumph Hurdle runner-up Far West and Irish Saint, who was a Grade 1-placed juvenile hur- dler last season and a wide-margin winner of the Grade 2 Holloway Hurdle last time. Alan King's sta- ble is just getting going again after a lull a few weeks ago, but his entrant, Vendor, has good form through his latest run, when beating a number of rivals he may face here today at this course in November. Vendor has won at least twice on soft ground, over distance and at this course, so the conditions should suit, and he could go well at a price. Warwick has a couple of decent races this after- noon. The 2.05 is a Listed mare's hurdle over 2m 5f which looks a good opportunity for the runners from the major yards of Willie Mullins and Nicky Henderson, with both having been in good form in the past two weeks, with respective strike rates of 28% and 27%. Mullins' Glen Melody won a similar race at this course last month, staying on well at the end and should be fine over 2m 5f, with op- position expected from Henderson's Une Artiste, who has won twice on soft ground and once on her only start over distance. The 2.40 at Warwick is the Grade 2 Kingmaker's Novices' Chase and is a possible option for Paul Nicholls' Dodging Bullets, discussed previously, and also Alan King's Raya Star, who was beaten into second by Dodging Bullets two starts ago, but could meet that horse on better terms at the weights in this race. Alternatively, given Venetia William's current form, it may be worth giving her possible runner Brick Red a second glance, who has won 3 times on the going and 5 times over distance.

Race Ratings 2.25 Newbury - Saturday, 8 February Betfair Denman Chase (Grade 2) (Class 1) 3m
3/1-13 Al Ferof 44 9 Paul Nicholls Returned from a year's absence to win the Grade 2 Amlin Chase at Ascot's November meeting with a bit in hand. Stepped up on that form and in class when third in the Grade 1 King George VI Chase on Boxing Day. Fair claims on that form, but needs to absolutely prove he can stay 3m. RATING 98 UB-133 Harry Topper 14 7 Kim Bailey This likeable chaser needs some juice in the ground to be seen at his best, including when win- ning the Charlie Hall Chase on his seasonal debut and also a solid third last time in the Argento at Cheltenham. That form is high-class, but he may find one or two too good in this company. RATING 95 56-24P Highland Lodge 42 8 Emma Lavelle Stable's excellent season continues, and Highland Lodge showed promise as a novice chaser last sea- son, including when third in a Grade 2. He was twice beaten by Harry Topper last season, but at the time the stable was in the doldrums. Has run well in decent handicap chases, including when fourth in the Hennessy Gold Cup, but was pulled up in the Welsh National last time. Drop back to 3m should help, but still has to improve to enter serious reckoning. RATING 94 11-F44 Katenko 21 8 Venetia Williams Showed good form in decent handicap chases last season, including when beating good benchmark Fruity O'Rooney by 12 lengths in a Grade 3 at Chel- tenham. Fell when going well in the Hennessy on seasonal debut, but next run was disappointing. Showed a bit more form last time, when fourth in the Peter Marsh at Haydock last month. His stable is going well and he has each-way possibilities. RATING 95 3P22-P Menorah 44 9 Philip Hobbs One-time Champion Hurdle prospect Menorah has developed into a smart chaser, winning at Grade1 level as a novice. Pulled up last time in the King George when mistakes dropped him out of con- tention, and though he is better than that perform- ance, suspicion remains that he might find the combination of testing ground and 3m a bit too much, and looks more one for place claims. RATING 97 2-1323 Third Intention 44 7 Colin Tizzard Although placed at Grade 1 level last season, Third Intention didn't win over fences until three months ago, meaning that he still retains his novice status for the rest of the season. Isn't far off the leading rivals in this race on his best form, but his low win- ning strike rate and preference for better ground temper confidence in this race. RATING 93 21-153 Tidal Bay 42 13 Paul Nicholls Ageing but still very able chaser who won the Grade 1 Lexus Chase 14 months ago and ran to that level when third in the Welsh National last time. Drops back to 3m today, but that isn't necessarily going to be an issue, and could be on the premises. RATING 99 5-UF1P Vino Griego 21 9 Gary Moore A progressive handicap chaser last season, whose campaign this term has been inconsistent, the highlight being when beating the talented Rolling Aces by seven lengths two starts ago. Does stay 3m and handles testing ground, but needs to improve again here. RATING 93 2P52-U Walkon 105 9 Alan King A top-class juvenile hurdler, Walkon's early promise was marred by injury, but he began to show signs of a recovery last season, as a second-season chaser, when finishing second three times in Graded handicap chases, including behind Al Ferof and Triolo D'Alene. Unseated on seasonal debut last time so comes to this race without a proper previous run this season and others look likelier prospects. RATING 96 81-131 Triolo D ́Alene 70 7 Nicky Henderson Won the Hennessy nicely, posting a career-best effort in the process. More on his plate here, but no reason to think that he won't be open to further improvement and stable has been in good form recently. RATING 100

6/1 the field for tomorrow's Betfair Hurdle, which as usual features 22 dangerous handicappers. The one we like is Vendor, who was so highly regarded by Alan King he went off 3/1 for the 2012 Fred Winter (finished 3rd). Last season was a write off but he bounced back to win a strong handicap at the Hennessy meeting off 130. Saphir Du Rheu, who was 5L away 4th is now 36lb higher and several of the others have run well since. With only an 8lb rise, he could be thrown in.

Sprinter Sacre pleased Nicky Henderson at his Seven Barrows base on Friday morning as he builds up towards the defence of his BetVictor Queen Mother Champion Chase crown, with a racecourse gallop firmly on the agenda. 7 Sprinter Sacre: Workout went well The brilliant eight-year-old will have had the unusual preparation of not having completed in a race over fences this season if he gets to Cheltenham after he was pulled up at Kempton over Christmas with an irregular heartbeat. That has now righted itself and the seven-times Grade One winner is gradually returning to full-speed work, with a racecourse workout, likely to be at Kempton, on the horizon. Sprinter Sacre will parade in the paddock at Newbury on Saturday, fitted with his regular heart monitor. "Sprinter was very good this morning, he did everything we wanted," said Henderson. "He had his heart monitor on this morning and it was all fine. "It was a proper bit of work. He was a fit horse on the 27th (December), then he missed three weeks, and he'll come to Kempton to do something at some point. "We've got a fair bit to do yet (before Cheltenham), but we've got a month and a bit to go. "You'd have to say with what he's done this morning that if everything continues we're on schedule. Everything has to go the right way, we can't afford any bruises, knocks or bangs or sneezes but if we get a clear run he's got every chance of getting there. "Tomorrow is his rest day anyway, so we're just going to take him on an away day to Newbury. "It's just down the road and he'll walk around the paddock for 10 minutes. We just want him to have a nice experience of going away again

Views from connections ahead of the Betfair Cash Out Chase, registered as the Game Spirit, at Newbury on Saturday. Dodging Bullets: Newbury bound Paul Nicholls is "excited" about Dodging Bullets as the Arkle candidate puts his credentials on the line in tomorrow's Betfair Cash Out Chase, registered as the Game Spirit, at Newbury. Bred by Frankie Dettori, he was a decent juvenile hurdler and finished fourth in the Triumph Hurdle behind Countrywide Flame and then had a second season over timber last year but by the time of the spring festivals he had lost his form. With his attentions switched to chasing this season he has looked a different proposition altogether, winning three in a row. He holds a verdict over Raya Star from Cheltenham in November and the two meet again, while he easily disposed of Grandouet at Kempton over Christmas. "You can ignore last season and I thought he was very impressive at Kempton," said Nicholls. "We're aiming for the Arkle and I think the track will suit him. I'm quite excited about him and he could make up into a smart two-miler." Alan King has emerged from his spell in the doldrums and hopes a 5lb turn around at the weights will enable Raya Star to get much closer to the likely favourite. King told his website: "He worked well last weekend and schooled nicely on Thursday, and I hope they go a decent gallop as he seems best coming off the pace in a fast-run two-miler." Tom George has two runners in Module and Majala, Donald McCain's Desert Cry steps up into graded class and Charlie Mann's Lord Of House completes the field.

Views from connections ahead of the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury on Saturday. Far West: Newbury hopeful Paul Nicholls may not be running the ante-post favourite Irving in Saturday's Betfair Hurdle at Newbury, but he still has two big chances with Irish Saint and Far West. Nicholls, who has targeted the big handicaps this season in his attempt to wrestle back the champion trainer crown from Nicky Henderson, felt Irving may ruin his chance in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle next month if he endured a slog in a deep ground, which it is sure to be if the meeting survives a 7am inspection. However, Irish Saint had no trouble with very soft ground at Ascot last time out after disappointing twice earlier in the season and he is actually 7lb well-in as the weights came out before his Ascot romp. "He was slow coming to hand this year and knocked a hind joint," said Nicholls. "He wasn't ready for the Gerry Feilden, and then he got behind in a big field in The Ladbroke. "We were never really happy with him until after Christmas and then he absolutely hosed in at Ascot. He relished the soft ground that day. "Like a lot of the four-year-olds I've had, they get better over a trip and I think you need a stayer to win this race. The softer the ground, the better, and he runs under a 5lb penalty so he's a few pounds well-in." Far West runs in the same Axom colours as Irving and he is certainly an able substitute having finished second in the Triumph Hurdle last season. He ran well on his comeback at Wincanton but disappointed at Haydock, after which a problem was found. "He was a really decent juvenile last year and was second to Melodic Rendezvous at Wincanton. He was very ordinary at Haydock, but we found he was suffering from ulcers, which he has been treated for," said Nicholls. "We were looking at running him in the National Spirit but we decided to leave him in at the last minute when there was uncertainty about Irving running because of the ground." Henderson has three runners with top weight Rolling Star the subject of positive vibes earlier in the week. Barry Geraghty has chosen him over Gibb River (Tony McCoy) and Vasco Du Ronceray (David Bass) in the hope that he can put his poor run in The Ladbroke behind him. "He won nicely at Haydock, that was a good run, and then went off favourite for The Ladbroke and disappointed there. That was too bad to be true, he was beaten by halfway," said Geraghty. "I think if he shows what he does at home, he'd have a big chance, but you never like to have top weight on heavy ground." Alan King is another who fields two contenders with Montbazon, not seen since finishing fourth in the Supreme two years ago, and Vendor, a good winner at Newbury's Hennessy meeting. King has had well-publicised problems this season but his horses appear to be back in good heart now, with First Mohican making a winning debut on Thursday. Robert Thornton rides Montbazon with Jack Doyle on Vendor "It won't be easy for Montbazon after nearly two years off, but I just had to get a run into him somewhere. There are no other options for him. He's done all his work with First Mohican," said King. "We put him in the Champion Hurdle but unless he wins by 10 lengths or something, I'd imagine he'll run in the County Hurdle. "Jack Doyle rode Vendor to win at Newbury last time, so the owners were keen for him to ride again. I'm not sure even Vendor would want the ground this deep, they'd both prefer much better ground." David Pipe is yet another with two runners in Greatwood winner Dell' Arca and last year's third from this race Swing Bowler. Tom Scudamore rides Dell' Arca and admits he is unsure where he would have finished in The Ladbroke after he was brought down by Recession Proof three from home. "He seems very well, I sat on him the other week and schooled him and he's shown no ill effects from Ascot," Scudamore told Racing UK. "It was just unfortunate, a horse fell in front of us, he went left and I went right. "It was frustrating, I felt we were going comfortably at the time but at the same time, the third-last at Ascot is a long way from the winning line. "The way Willow's Saviour won, you'd be hard pressed to say you'd have won it, but at the same time I was feeling pretty confident. "He seems in good form, we know he'll handle the conditions so hopefully he goes there with a good chance." Swing Bowler was due to run in The Ladbroke but was pulled out on the morning of the race. Owner JP McManus has taken this prestigious prize twice in recent years with Get Me Out Of Here (2010) and My Tent Or Yours (2013) and is double-handed this time with the Jonjo O'Neill-trained Alaivan and Prompter. Alaivan was a very good novice when with Edward O'Grady, finishing third in the Triumph Hurdle, but was off for more than two and a half years and only returned to action in December. "Alaivan has had his problems. He's had a leg twice and has come back after a long lay-off," said McManus' racing manager Frank Berry. "He ran OK in a little race the last day, but it's a big step up for him. You never know and we are hoping for the best." Prompter has been a useful performer on the Flat but has won just two of his 31 career starts, one of which was over hurdles back in October 2012 at Bangor. "It's frustrating he doesn't win too often. We hope they go a good gallop and he might be able to sneak into it," said Berry.

Kempton Park, 7 February 2014
3.05, fourth race
The Stewards noted that MASTER CYNK, which was pulled up, had interfered with AMBER FLUSH, which was pulled up, who in turn interfered with SMILES FOR MILES (IRE), placed second, and MICQUUS (IRE), which was pulled up, on the bend leaving the back straight on the first circuit, but after viewing a recording of the race they were satisfied that it did not involve a riding offence.
4.10, sixth race
The Stewards held an enquiry into the use of the whip by Wayne Hutchinson, the rider of MIDNIGHT APPEAL, placed second, from the third last fence. Having heard his evidence and viewed recordings of the race, they found him in breach of Schedule (B)6 Part 2 in that he used his whip above the permitted level. The Stewards suspended Hutchinson for 2 days as follows: Friday 21 and Saturday 22 February 2014.
4.40, seventh race
The Stewards noted that DARLOA (IRE), unplaced, ridden by Jack Doyle, shifted left-handed away from the whip approaching the final furlong causing the gelding to clip the heels of GONEINAGLANCE, ridden by Mr J. Martin, placed third, but after viewing a recording of the race they were satisfied that it did not involve a riding offence.

Wolverhampton, 7 February 2014
5.30, second race
The Stewards held an enquiry following a report from the Starter that MARMOT BAY (IRE), trained by Philip Kirby, was the subject of a third criteria failure. The trainer’s attention was drawn to the restriction incurred under Rule (B)44 and informed that the filly could not run until the day after passing a stalls test. This being the second occasion within the previous 12 months that MARMOT BAY (IRE) had been reported, the Stewards informed the trainer that if the filly were reported for a third time within the same period, MARMOT BAY (IRE) would be prevented from having a stalls test for 6 months.
6.30, fourth race
The Stewards noted that the winner, SINGZAK, had interfered with PINOTAGE, placed second, inside the final furlong, but after viewing a recording of the incident they were satisfied that it neither involved a riding offence nor improved SINGZAK’s placing.
8.00, seventh race
The Stewards held an enquiry into possible interference two and a half furlongs out. Having heard their evidence and viewed recordings of the race they found that MICHAEL’S NOOK, unplaced, ridden by Luke Morris, had interfered with MONSIEUR PONTAVEN, unplaced, ridden by Neil Farley, who in turn interfered with HISPANIA (IRE), unplaced, ridden by Eoin Walsh. They found the interference was accidental.

13:50 Saturday 8th February Racing Tips - 08/02/2014
Unfortunately the ground has really gone against Swing Bowler as I don't think she wants it heavy. Far West has a massive chance though, for all he has a fair bit of weight on his back, and will be helped by the useful claim of Harry Derham. One more I want to stick up on the day is Pipe's first string Dell' Arca who won off 8lb lower on British debut at Cheltenham and was travelling well before being all but brought down when unseating in the Ladbroke at Ascot. Ground should be no issue and I think he should be the clear favourite for this so 15/2 is a reasonable option. I certainly think he'll finish in the top 4 and the yard is flying. Newbury 15.35 - Dell' Arca 1pt e/w
Already advised - Swing Bowler 1pt e/w @ 20/1 Far West 1pt e/w @ 25/1 Away from the big hurdle there are few big prices to exploit on the Newbury card, even when looking at the 3 mile handicap hurdle. The market looks to hold no surprises and it's likely favourite Upswing who I think will take plenty of beating at 7/2. Kilmurvy is a solid place shout at around 9/1 but this is up in class and it has to be a concern that he didn't really stay last time over course and distance. A tongue-tie appears to have helped but this will be some slog in the conditions. Andy Kelly is progressive but I think there should be more distance in the market between he and Tony McCoy's mount so Upswing get the vote. He may not have won last time before coming down at the last but would have gone very close against a winner that has gone in again (in novice company). This extra trip will suit and his form is just so solid having been staying on behind Saphir Du Rheu and Whisper last time, all of whom have followed up off higher marks. Upswing is up 5lb but that should be well within him. Newbury 13.50 - Upswing 2pt win
It's difficult to rule out Al Ferof for the Denman Chase but I don't see how he can win this without harming his Gold Cup chances. He is a live contender for the showpiece in March and I fancy Nicholls is concerned about him having a really hard race this afternoon. Make no mistake, if this was good ground he'd be value at evens. But this is heavy going and the Gold Cup, his intended target, is just 34 days away. Katenko and Harry Topper have the luxury of 'possibly' having a tilt at the Gold Cup but will be all out to win this in conditions that will be ideal and the favourite is not backable at 13/8. I'm a big Katenko fan and would have a nibble at double figures if the ground was testing in March but there's also a sense that his turn was last tear and this year is all about Kim Bailey's 7 year old when the going is tough. He's won over course and distance in a very respectable time and is a far better prospect now. The major concern is his jumping but with 2 fences likely to be omitted I can see this falling into his lap at 7/2. I'm disappointed Highland Lodge doesn't line up because a) I'd backed him and b) he'd have insured a good gallop but this boy loves the mud and is improving all the time. I genuinely think he should be favourite. Newbury 14.25 - Harry Topper 3pt win
I was all out to back Raya Star this afternoon but the conditions keep making Module jump off the page. Basically Dodging Bullets is massively opposable in these conditions, though I think he has a really solid chance at Cheltenham and, if he doesn't win, would suggest he'd be value for the Arkle. He does handle softish ground but conditions will be really testing and 6/4 is too short. Raya Star has the measure of him over hurdles and 7/1 is bigger than expected but Tom George's horse, much like Harry Topper, has everything in his favour this afternoon in what is his real chance to shine. He almost beat Somersby at Exeter, was only 4 lengths behind Benefficient in the Jewson, and travelled very encouragingly before fading int the Peterborough, which was run at a true pace. This drop in trip in testing conditions should see him favourite given such solid form and he should be backed accordingly at 85/40.

A n t e P o s t N e w s Ante Post (1) Grand National ON HIS OWN 25/1 A final selection for this years race will be given on or around the day of the race so it may not even be this horse. I have taken some 25/1 and more after some preliminary work on the race. Looks sure to be shorter and you should be able to trade any bets. I am as happy as I can be at this stage that he will go to Aintree and arrive there with a good profile. Some will point to a record at Aintree of F F 6 but that does not bother me. He fell in the last 2 Nationals but both times had a ridiculous preparation which made it impossible for him. Arkle himself would not have got round with his profile. Jumping doesn't worry me for this massive imposing sort. Big negatives in the last 2 nationals he will be a positive this season. Willie Mullins trains. Sired by Presenting who has bred a winner. 25/1 looks value. Live Odds at mathematician-betting.bestbetting.com/horse-racing/england/aintree/aintree-grand-national/Ante Post (2) Cheltenham World Hurdle ZARKANDAR 10/1 Pricewise went for this horse alongside a second bet for Rule The World. I suspect they have this right. I think I remember I said the horse would win a World Hurdle after last years Champion Hurdle. On the day I will have negatives for several and that includes Big bucks and More of That. History now tells us he had no chance at all giving 7lbs and 11 lbs to Annie Power in two recent races. He's done very little wrong and I'm just starting to fancy him.
