Lingfield, 11:40 - Back Grisela E/W @ 20/121.00

Making her first appearance following wind surgery, Kodi Bear filly Griselda is a contender to note for Henrietta Knight despite failing to perform to the best of her ability in recent runs since joining the yard.

Formerly trained by George Scott, the four-year-old shaped with potential as a juvenile, winning three consecutive races, rising from an opening mark of 60 up to a rating of 83. She finished a close third to Ghost Run in a competitive Doncaster handicap when rated 81, but has been unable to match that level since.

Now dropped 21lb from her career-high mark to date, in calmer waters than her latest outings and back solely against the fillies, Griselda may be able to fare better under Cieren Fallon. She has been given a chance at the weights, 10lb below her opening run for the yard, and shouldn't be discounted each-way.

Cork, 13:40 - Back Rebel Budz @ 9/25.50

In the 3m maiden hurdle at the Mallow, Paul O'Flynn-trained Rebel Budz makes appeal as he steps up in trip following a positive second to Found A Diamond over an extended 2m6f at Thurles. He was passed late on by the eventual winner, who has franked the form since and is now rated 114, and finished six-and-a-half-lengths clear of third-placed Chisum, with subsequent winner Barnahash Mason in fifth.

Entitled to improve for that hurdling debut, there should be more progression to come from the son of Malinas. He's a point winner, having convincingly won at Liscarroll, beating Stan Wellback, who went on to beat now 135-rated Grade Two winning hurdler Diamond Hunter in a point of his own.

There's staying form in the pedigree, particularly in the form of Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Denman, a brother to his maternal grand-dam Polly's Present, and considering some of the form he has shown already, he may be worth keeping onside, particularly over this extra distance.

Cork, 14:15 - Back Kimy E/W @ 16/117.00

Tom Mullins-trained Kimy hasn't enjoyed the best run of form since her brilliant second to Vischio in a Listed handicap at the Dublin Racing Festival last term, when outrunning odds of 28/129.00 to make the frame, but is now 1lb lower than that effort and may be able to return to some form back against her own sex.

The six-year-old mare was an early faller at Leopardstown recently on her return from a 226-day break, having failed to make an impression in her previous run despite being sent off at odds of 5/16.00. She unseated at the first flight at the Punchestown Festival, following a disappointing effort at Navan, and, although she has struggled for consistency, she has been quite unfortunate on occasion.

Back on a workable mark under an in-form Danny Mullins, Kimy may be able to bounce back to form. She won a maiden by six-and-a-half-lengths, having previously finished second to now 150-rated Gaucher, and has shown enough ability to suggest she can pose a dangerous threat in a race of this nature.

Cork, 15:22 - Back Midnight Our Fred E/W @ 11/112.00

Top-weight Midnight Our Fred is another contender for Danny Mullins worth considering on the Cork card. He's a likeable performer who finished second to Perceval Legallois in last season's Paddy Power Chase at Leopardstown, when rated only 1lb lower, and performed with credit when second to West Cork Wildway on his penultimate start over hurdles.

Having shown his capabilities from a similar rating against tough opposition previously, Midnight Our Fred should be able to hold his own in this company. He has run well on numerous occasions over fences to date, and could be capable of showing some further improvement.

Cheekpieces are taken off having struggled in his recent run behind Favori De Champdou, but this drop in class can allow him to be more competitive and he could be worth sticking with.

Sandown, 15:35 - Back All In You @ 10/34.33

Purchased for £90,000 from the David Maxwell dispersal, six-year-old gelding All In You is an attractive proposition in the Sandown finale. He represents the in-form Warren Greatrex team and has James Bowen in the saddle as he bids to reverse form with Dance And Glance, who narrowly beat him at Ascot last month.

All In You finished strongly that day, unlucky to be beaten a narrow distance by the eventual winner. It was his first start for the yard following a 273-day break, and he may come on plenty for the outing.

The four-time winner has the scope for plenty of further improvement over obstacles. He has shaped with plenty of potential during his career so far and there should be more to come from him.

The gelding, who is related to a number of high-achieving black-type Flat performers including dual Group One winner Immortal Verse, dam of Henri Matisse and Tenebrism, has a nice profile and, on the back of a promising second, could return to winning ways by recording a first win for his current connections.

Wincanton, 15:50 - Back Kilwaughter @ 9/52.80

In the concluding maiden hurdle on Wincanton's card, Philip Hobbs and Johnson White-trained Kilwaughter could finally get off the mark at the third time of asking over obstacles. He made a successful start on debut for former trainer Stuart Crawford, beating subsequent Grade Three runner-up Theflyingking and now 131-rated Strong Link in a Down Royal bumper, before changing hands for £120,000.

In his first start in England, the son of Milan was sent off at odds of 11/112.00 for the competitive Grade Two bumper on Grand National Day at Aintree, finishing a luckless eighth with the race failing to pan out favourably for him. He finished third in a Punchestown bumper in his subsequent start, emerging with credit from the race won by 12/113.00 chance Baron Noir, with exciting prospect El Cairos, a subsequent £410,000 purchase, in second. 

Kilwaughter failed to make an impression on hurdling debut in the Grade Two Persian War, thrown in the deep end on his first start over obstacles off the back of a 162-day break, but fared somewhat better at Exeter.

Further improvement is required, however, but the son of Glory Days, a dam who has produced multiple winners including Top Of The Bill, remains a horse with potential and can make it third time lucky as he steps up in distance.

Southwell, 19:00 - Back Tribal Wisdom E/W @ 9/110.00

Course-and-distance winner Tribal Wisdom holds strong claims for trainer Ian Williams in this mile handicap. He caught the eye in defeat at Wolverhampton when last seen over 7f, staying on strongly from the rear of the field when mounting his challenge wide coming down the home turn into the straight.

The son of Frankel had previously finished a two-length fourth to subsequent winner Midnight Lion at Newcastle, when struggling to find the most favourable trip over the mile there, having previously won under Billy Loughnane from a mark of 78.

Now only 3lb above his last winning mark, with proven form at the track, dropping in class on the back of a promising run, there's plenty to like about Tribal Wisdom's chances as he seeks a sixth career win.

All of his success to date have been on an all-weather surface, he has performed well in both of his runs at the track so far, and should put in a good effort in the hands of Eddy Greatrex.
