Age: 5-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 7
Distance: 2m 4f
Race Preview
ISOLATE has done well in his chasing endeavours so far and scored at Kempton in October on what was his third go over the fences.
It was a runner-up spot for Isolate last time out at course and distance, with his jumping letting him down a little bit in that one. But still, he looks firmly in the frame for Wednesday’s go.
QUOI DE NEUF won on his penultimate run, which was at Taunton in December on an 18f trip.
That was straight after having made an encouraging chase debut.
He needs a little bounce back after not going quite as well last time out, but the longer trip on Wednesday may help him out.
CREALION was a runner up at Leicester a month ago. That was a nice return to form from him.
It was a better trip for him at the 2m 4f distance which he will be going at on Wednesday, so he could get into the picture.
Ones to watch: Crealion 11/2, Isolate 4/1

Distance: 2m 5f
Race Preview
BELLATRIXSA has been in fantastic form for a while now, not having been out of the top two in any of her last four runs.
She made a return from a break with a runner-up spot at Chepstow in January.
There’s been a slight drop of 1lb from that and found only a very well-treated one too good for her in the contest.
TRAPISTA scored over the timbers at Huntington in October, which was her first run for a new yard.
That victory was recorded against her own sex and she was moved into the handicapping on her follow up.
That could have gone better, but Trapista returns from a break of a couple of months and there is still plenty of room for her to push on.
KISSESFORKATIE was a winner on her penalties run, that score coming at Exeter at the start of the year.
She was pushed up 7lb for a follow-up run back at the same venue and put in a credible run to take a fourth-place finish.
Ones to watch: Kissesforkatie 9/2, Bellatrixsa 5/2

15:07 Sedgefield Handicap Chase Horse Racing Tip
Race Type: Class 4
Age: 5-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 6
Distance: 2m 1f
Race Preview
ITSALONGROAD rediscovered some nice form with a fourth-place finishing at Fairyhouse on his latest.
That was just a couple of weeks ago. The result could have been better for him if he had been ridden with a little more intent. Place claims could be there.
TRESHNISH rattled the crossbar last time out, missing the score only by a nose in a thriller at Newcastle.
That was under the same rider, a 5lb claimer who is going to be helping him against. There was a win for Treshnish at Hexham back in December.
CLARET DABBLER was a runner up on his latest effort where he just couldn’t quite hang on until the line.
Claret Dabbler was just touched off at the finish, but it was a run that was full of encouragement and comes up just 2lb for that strong performance.
Ones to watch: Treshnish 11/4, Itsalongroad 10/3

15:37 Sedgefield Handicap Hurdle Horse Racing Tip
Race Type: Cass 5
Age: 4-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 12
Distance: 2m 3 1/2f
Race Preview
LIFEISAHIGHWAY makes a return to the hurdles after coming up a long way short in a chase effort in December on his latest outing.
He was having issues with his jumping on the day. But on the return to the timbers, if he runs true to form then Lifeisahighway has claims.
SHOUGHALL’S BOY is seeking a hattrick and therefore gets his place on the shortlist for Wednesday.
He has been moved up another 5lb after a win at Hexham on his latest effort, which was a couple of months ago.
This will be the first run for a new yard for Soughall’s Boy and could find himself involved in the thick of things.
DEMI SANG also appears to be a strong option for this one after a good second on a 2m trip last time out.
That followed a 2m score at Wetherby on his penultimate run. The extra distance on Wednesday is interesting, and with a 7lb claimer is no forlorn hope.
Ones to watch: Lifeisahighway 11/2, Shoughall’s Boy 4/1

15:52 Fakenham Handicap Hurdle Horse Racing Tip
Race Type: Class 3
Age: 4-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 4
Distance: 2m 7f
Race Preview
BALLYANDY landed a runner up spot on his latest run, which was at Wetherby about a month ago.
The 11-year-old is well past his prime, but that recent effort saw him put in his best showing for a while.
The longer trip on offer for Wednesday should help him.
KANSAS CITY CHIEF has been going well this season with two wins from four. Those were a couple of 3m scores at Cheltenham.
He was a runner up at Cheltenham at the start of the new year on his latest effort. So the 13-year-old veteran retains plenty of ability.
POTTERS HEDGER has been eased back a further 2lb, which comes after a 4th place finish at Haydock last month.
HAVANA HERMANO has been in decent form over the hurdles and fences recently, but was behind Kansas City Chief at Cheltenham back in October on his latest run.
Ones to watch: Ballyandy 6/4, Havana Hermano 4/1

16:07 Sedgefield Handicap Chase Horse Racing Tip
Race Type: Class 5
Age: 5-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 13
Distance: 2m 5f
Race Preview
GETASTAR looked decent on his latest effort, which was at Lingfield just under a couple of weeks ago.
That was a chase and handicap debut for him. There could be more to come from Getastar and he’s on the shortlist.
RAECIUS FELIX has place claims at the very least in this one. It’s been a run of six straight fixtures for him in which he has taken a third-place finish.
The latest of those was at Uttoxeter 11 days ago, not going quite so well with the cheekpieces on for the first time. Reacius Felix has been eased back 4lb so may have a say.
GREY ATLANTIC WAY is a good consistent one and is well worth considering for Wednesday’s run.
He was a runner up here at Sedgefield a month ago.
That was on a longer trip and this could be more suitable for him. The one victory for Grey Atlantic Way happened at course and distance back in October.
Ones to watch: Raecius Felix 13/2, Grey Atlantic Way 7/1
