1:30 Haydock The opener on ITV is the Tommy Whittle Chase, a handicap over the extended 3m1f trip. It’s top-weight BILL BAXTER (7/1) EW I’ve landed on here. A winner on 4 of his five starts in what was a stellar campaign…

1:15 Cheltenham We have five races live on ITV from Cheltenham. The first is the 1:15 and it is a handicap chase over the extended 2 miles. It’s CALICO (9/4) in the opener. He was unlucky to be be reeled in late…

1:15 Haydock The first of five races on ITV at Haydock is a 2m3f handicap hurdle. I like PARK ANNONCIADE (7/2) here. He sneaks in at the bottom of the weights effectively carrying 10 stone with Ben Bromley’s 3lb claim taken into…

1:45 Cheltenham The first of four live ITV races from Cheltenham is a 2m4f handicap chase for the novice chasers. I’d give MR SAXOBEAT (9/1) a chance here. He pulled up after the last here in October but he came with a winning…

1:45 Cheltenham Six runners go to post for the opener on ITV. It is a novice chase over the extended 3m trip.  It’s GOOD RISK AT ALL (15/8) NAP for me here for the Sam Thomas stable. He went off a well-backed favourite on seasonal…

1:45 Cheltenham The opener on ITV is a trappy 2m handicap chase with 11 runners set to go to post. I like BALLYBREEZE (10/3) NAP here for the Sam Drinkwater stable. An easy winner on chase debut winning on the bridle off…

1:15 Wincanton The first race from Wincanton on ITV is the 1:15 and it is a handicap chase over 2m4f restricted to the conditional jockeys. I like ENJOY YOUR LIFE (4/1) here. He sneaks into this running off 10’10 with Ned Fox’s…

1:15 Wetherby The first race from Wetherby is a handicap chase over the extended 2m3f trip. I like LADRONNE (15/2) here in this. The winner of this race last year off 109, he looks primed to go well off 115 this time…
