13:45 (Exeter) Diamond Ri

This may revolve around the Joe Tizzard trained Diamond Ri who created a deep impression winning a Warwick jumpers flat last season.

The previous Irish point-to-point winner can make a successful start with hurdles.

Asta La Pasta looked good scoring at Uttoxeter last month on hurdling debut and rates the most obvious danger.

Insurrection received a wind op since finishing fourth in a maiden hurdle at Ffos Las on initial stable outing in April. Could show improved form.

Midnight Soldier warrants some thought.

 

14:55 (Exeter) Stay Away Fay

There is an interesting contest in the Betway ‘Future Stars’ Silver Bowl Novices’ Chase, a chasing debut for a handful of promising types who previously made an impression over hurdles.

Among them is Stay Away Fay, winner of the Albert Bartlett on his penultimate start last season and a horse for whom a chasing career was immediately mentioned.

The gelding makes his debut in this field of five and although the opposition is fair, with Dan Skelton’s Grey Dawning an obvious rival, if he takes to the task he ought to be the one to beat.

 

15:30 (Exeter) Editeur Du Gite

Gary Moore’s Editeur Du Gite can defy top weight to land the Betway Haldon Gold Cup Handicap Chase.

The chestnut claimed some notable scalps last term when beating Edwardstone and Energumene in the Clarence House Chase at Cheltenham in January, a win that followed success in the Grade Two Desert Orchid Chase at Kempton.

The Haldon Gold Cup is a return to limited handicap company for the nine-year-old and he certainly carries the evidence of last season’s victories with a top weight of 11st 12lb, but in this field of six, none of whom have reached the same heights, he still holds a lot of appeal.

 

16:00 (Exeter) My Silver Lining

My Silver Lining is on the rise as a staying chaser where the Emma Lavelle-trained seven-year-old returned from six months off with an authoritative display tackling fences at Wincanton.

A 8lbs rise in weights might not be enough to prevent her winning again.

Collectors Item finished well beaten on chase debut in a Listed Novices event at Chepstow on reappearance however could do better switching to handicap company back up in trip.

Broomfield Present won a staying handicap hurdle at Haydock in March and he looks like an interesting recruit to the chasing sphere.

Both Notachance and Ask Me Early warrant consideration.
