Here's some finer detail on Planet Sport's three main picks from Wetherby.

14.15 Wetherby - Spiritofthenorth

Brian Hughes is a top jockey booking on Spiritofthenorth in the Join Racing TV Now Maiden Hurdle.

Going the right way about a first win over hurdles, a third last time out over jumps for Kevin Ryan's Bated Breath gelding was no disgrace. The five-year-old then won on the flat at Wolverhampton which was a good run out.
It'll be no surprise to see the azure Middleham Park Racing XLVI flash home first, leaving the bookies similarly blue.

15.58 Wetherby - Garincha

Named after the Brazilian footballer with the deformed legs who won two world cups, Garincha can be similarly fleet footed in the Watch Irish Racing On Racing TV Handicap Hurdle.

Conditional jockey Thomas Doggrell takes off a hefty seven pounds on the six-year-old who was a course winner at the end of last year.

Like his namesake, Garincha jinked right last time around at Fontwell, unseating his rider but a clear round can see him score.

17.35 Wetherby - World Trip

It's not asking the earth to suggest that Olly Murphy's World Trip has a good chance of taking the 100% RacingTV Profits Back To Racing Handicap Hurdle.

A win at Huntingdon earlier this month came at a distance of six lengths from Alan King's subsequent winner Midnight Glance.
Fergus Gregory gets the leg up with World Trip aiming to circumnavigate the field for the win.
