Race Type: Class 3
Age: 5-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 8
Distance: 2m 7f
Race Preview
BAVINGTON BOB completed a hattrick last time out, scoring with a solid display at Carlisle.
The assessor has given him an extra 5lb to work with on Monday, but the four-timer surely can’t be that far out of reach in what is a thin field.
BROADWAY JOE has had a fine first season over the fences, producing consistent run after consistent run.
He completed a hattrick at the start of the season before following up with three straight runners-up spots.
He looks likely to find himself involved on Monday.
CASH TO ASH has been in the frame on most of his runs this season without having managed to get his nose in front.
Connections reach for the visor for the first time in this one and that could help his case.
He needs a revival after struggling on a longer trip at Newcastle on his latest.
Ones to watch: Broadway Joe 4/1, Cash To Ash 11/2

HIDDEN COMMANDER has claims for this one as he is moved up in distance for what is his chasing debut.
He looks well-built for this sphere and took a third-place finish in a handicap hurdle at Ayr on his latest run three weeks ago.
This stern stamina test will play into his hands.
IZZY’S CHAMPION should be in the mix after showing a good attitude to fight back and recover from a mistake to win at Musselburgh on his latest.
He was running on well at the finish and this is a slightly longer trip and should rate as a strong contender from just 2lb higher.
LASTOFTHECOSMICS went close on a little bit of a longer trip here at Kelso on his penultimate run. That could see him get in this.
His latest run at Musselburgh was one to forget, but he’s only 1lb higher and brings some place claims on a bounce-back run.
Ones to watch: Lastofhtecosmics 9/1, Hidden Commander 114

16:10 Kelso Handicap Hurdle Horse Racing Tip
Race Type: Class 4
Age: 4-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 12
Distance: 2m 2f
Race Preview
ATLANTIC DANCER claimed a win over the hurdles at Ayr on her latest run which was three weeks ago.
There is now a 3lb rise that she deals with on the back of the success after benefitting from a drop in the weights. She looks competitive.
PADDY THE HORSE bit in a better run last time out, a big step forward from a lacklustre handicap debut.
That latest run saw Paddy The Horse take a runner up spot at Hexham last week.
He stays at the same mark and therefore could pull himself into the frame with further improvement.
CEDAR HILL piques some interest in this one as well as he does have a good record at Kelso, albeit over the fences.
He is not often seen over the hurdles but is switched after struggling in a Doncaster chase a month ago.
Ones to watch: Cedar Hill 8/1, Atlantic Dancer 9/2

Race Type: Class 3
Age: 4-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 17
Distance: 1m
Race Preview
LIGHTENING COMPANY was nice and progressive on the left and is still finding his feet over the timbers.
His hurdles debut wasn’t great so has been switched back to the flat for Monday.
With a good draw, there could be something in this for Lightening Company.
BROKEN SPEAR won under this amateur rider at Doncaster last year on a 7f trip and the pairing should go well again on Monday.
He stays at the same mark as he was for the Lincoln at Doncaster 9 days ago, but was well ahead of one of the opposing Hortzadar in that one.
IL BANDITO makes his return to action in this one and has been knocking out some consistent performances in defeat since a win at Haydock last summer.
Il Bandito will have his first run for a new yard on Monday and returns after a long break so it should be nice and refreshed to put something together.
Ones to watch: Broken Spear 6/1, Lightning Company 8/1

14:40 Redcar Handicap Horse Racing Tip
Race Type: Class 6
Age: 3-year-olds only
Declared Runners: 15
Distance: 1m
Race Preview
SWEETEST COMPANY scored on a 1m trip at Newcastle on her latest run and the form from that effort reads very well.
The race did pan out in her favour, but still, she has a bit of an advantage of match fitness over some of the other potential players in this field.
COPPER MOUNTAIN will be tried on the turf and if she carries over her all-weather form then she should be a big player in this.
She opened the year with a victory at Southwell in February and followed up with a good runner-up spot at the same venue on her latest.
There’s further improvement to come from Copper Mountain.
CLODOVEA was last seen in a nursery at Musselburgh 8 months ago, but put in a good shift for a second-place finish.
There is potential there to come from her it looks like. This is a wide-open field and she may be worth a look.
Ones to watch: Copper Mountain 10/3, Clodovea 6/1

Race Type: Class 5
Age: 4-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 8
Distance: 1m 2f
Race Preview
CARP KID returns from a break and was in great shape before it. Last season ended with a victory at Bath.
Carp Kid returns to action on Monday on a fairly good mark which should see him competitive if he’s refreshed and sharp.
GERT LUSH was a winner at Goodwood last summer from a mark of just 1lb lower.
She has been away since November when she landed an excellent runner-up spot at Nottingham. She’s at the same mark and looks like she poses a threat.
RUBY RED EMPRESS claimed a sixth-place finish at Wolverhampton in a handicap on her latest run.
She looked as if she may have just needed that on her return so could be sharper. Ruby Red Empress won three times from 9 runs last year.
Ones to watch: Ruby Red Empress 5/1, Carp Kid 5/1
