Sandown 15:10 - Ballydub
2m 6f, Class 1 Handicap Hurdle - Soft, Good to soft in places

Progressive hurdler whom is still having only his 5th start over the smaller obstacles. A decent 2nd behind Punchestowns at Cheltenham in November, Ballydub ran out an impressive winner at Newbury shortly after. Going well when falling behind Big Buck's 30 days ago, Richard Johnson's mount is still improving and looks to be ahead of the handicapper.

2ND

Wetherby 15:25 - Companero
3m 1f, Class 1 Novices' Chase - Soft

Un-beaten over fences Howard Johnson's impressive 9 year old will relish today's conditions and will take all the beating. After facile victories he showed battling qualities to fend off a challenge from the progressive Quws Law at Ayr last time. Will be Done does not convince me that the step up in trip will suit whereas Kornati Kid looks like he is getting to grips with the game but looks up against it at the weights.
