Timeform UK SmartPlays: Saturday January 31

Brick Red - 13:50 Sandown

Brick Red is more reliable than most, running as well as he ever has when going down fighting over this C&D earlier in the month, and looks sure to make a bold bid to go one better off the same mark. Ballygarvey and Arkaim both arrive here on an upward curve and will ensure the selection doesn't have things all his own way.

Champagne West - 14:25 Sandown

Champagne West lost his unbeaten record over fences at the hands of Ptit Zig in the Dipper at Cheltenham on New Year's Day, but that was still a smart effort and he can quickly regain the winning thread. His four rivals in what could prove to be an above-average renewal all scored last-time out, Irish Saint and Gitane du Berlais perhaps the pair to give him most to think about.

Global Power - 14:40 Ffos Las

Global Power remains low-mileage for a nine-year-old and can resume winning ways after narrow reverses the last twice. Ziga Boy traded as low as 1.33 in-running before unseating three out at Newbury last time and Tom Bellamy claims a valuable 5 lb, while Smiles For Miles is having a good campaign and also merits consideration.
