RIVAS ROB ROY is fancied to confirm recent form with chief market rival Beau Geste in Brighton's Join The Bet Club At Vickers.Bet Handicap (3.30).
The pair placed second and third behind Bbob Alula over this afternoon's trip 20 days ago. Rivas Rob Roy had more tactical pace on that occasion, leading the field until he was collared in the final strides. Beau Geste is 2lb better off for finishing a length behind, however the selection struck at this meeting last year off a higher mark. He has not had too many chances on turf in recent seasons and this is one of jockey Hector Crouch's best tracks for winners.
At Huntingdon, MORTLACH has been found a nice opening in the Doodles, Baker And Turner Novices' Handicap Chase (6.17). Fergal O'Brien's stable is going great guns and he wastes no time in sending this point-to-point winner over fences. Receiving plenty of weight from Lady Reset, LITTLE JESSTURE gets the vote for the Cheffins Mares' Handicap Hurdle (5.47). She bumped into a fair sort for the grade last time and this six-year-old is a low-mileage sort in this type of race.
