Race Tip

GUARD DUTY (2) finished top-three on first two starts this season including placing third in the New Year’s Day Handicap Hurdle at Windsor last time out. May go one better. BOWMORE (3) is racing consistently with one win and four placed efforts past five starts. Was placed third at Doncaster last time on the back of a win at Newbury. Can return to winning ways. FINGAL'S HILL (4) bids for a hat-trick after a 6L triumph at Aintree followed by a short-head success at Hexham. Previously won over course and distance. Dangerous. SMOKERINGINTHEDARK (8) cannot be discounted after a latest second at Musselburgh.
