Timeform UK SmartPlays: Friday October 24

Vegas Rebel - 15:20 Newbury

This trip looks a minimum for Vegas Rebel but he's probably a good deal ahead of his mark on his belated handicap debut and is taken to strike on the back of his Brighton victory. Similar comments about this distance apply to Inniscastle Lad, but he could figure also, along with Billyoakes.

Santa Teresa - 16:30 Newbury

Cheekpieces may help galvanise Zain Empire, who hasn't progressed as expected of late, but the race revolves around Santa Teresa, who can confirm herself well treated at the second time of asking in handicaps now switched to turf.

Cape Caster - 16:40 Doncaster

Ghazi is of strong interest despite a 14-month absence, particularly with his yard in such good form. It will look significant if there is confidence behind him in the betting, but preference is for Cape Caster, who is very much on an upward curve and he wasn't beaten far off a similar mark at Newmarket last time despite being caught back further than ideal. Top of The Glas is also a key player.
