It's Wetherby's big day of the year on Saturday

"Boogie In The Barn has moved to Charlie Longsdon since enjoying a very productive 2013/14 season, and providing all is well after an absence, there's a strong case to be made for him from a handicapping perspective."

Timeform's SmartPlays team examine Saturday's high-quality jumps action, split between Wetherby and Ascot.

Rock On Ruby - 14:00 Wetherby

Rock On Ruby is the class horse, can boast a pretty good record fresh and three miles could be exactly what he needs nowadays, so he seemingly has a lot in his favour. Grumeti is also tackling a new trip, but certainly wasn't stopping in the Cesarewitch, while second-season hurdler Aqalim likely has more to offer this time around.

Nabucco - 14:50 Ascot

Smart Flat stayer Nabucco has made a sound transition to hurdling, and there's every reason to think he has been handed a lenient opening mark, and that's without the promise of further progress. Sign of A Victory was most impressive in this race 12 months ago and will go well again, while Jolly's Cracked It remains with potential this season.

Boogie In The Barn - 16:10 Wetherby

Boogie In The Barn has moved to Charlie Longsdon since enjoying a very productive 2013/14 season, and providing all is well after an absence, there's a strong case to be made for him from a handicapping perspective. Sir Ivan and Medicine Hat have their best days ahead of them and are feared most.
