(Please be aware selections could become non-runners after article's first publication)

 

13:55 (Southwell) My Gift To You

My Gift To You can bring up his hat-trick in the Southwell Golf Course Handicap Chase.

He has been mixing it up over hurdles and fences since joining James Owen last summer, winning twice each over hurdles and fences.

Victorious in chase company in November, he followed up back over the smaller obstacles at this track in mid-January and should be untroubled by another switch back here.

 

14:25 (Southwell) Act Of Authority

Olly Murphy won this last season with a useful performer and Act Of Authority can ensure he retains the prize.

A two-time winner over hurdles at Bangor-on-Dee this season he sets the standard bringing the added bonus of a 7.7lb claim of talented conditional Dylan Johnston.

Catterick winner Teorie raced too freely when beaten at Musselburgh last month. Might make a bold bid in receipt of plenty of weight.

Returning to better ground could see course and distance maiden hurdle winner Tommie Gun bounce back from a below-par effort at Leicester.

Newcomer Diskatek requires a market check with Harry Cobden booked.

 

15:25 (Southwell) Globe Player

There could be more to come from Globe Player. He was somewhat disappointing when a remote third here on handicap debut in December but could prove a different proposition up in trip with first-time cheekpieces applied.

Zwicky is consistent and holds solid claims. The Phil Kirby-trained hurdler received a break since finishing third in this class at Hexham and must be respected under Cobden.

Myfanwy's Magic looks interesting now entering handicap company attempting a more suitable distance.

Jaramillo holds form to play a role.

 

16:00 (Southwell) Getaway Glory

Irish point-to-point winner Getaway Glory could relish this sizeable step up in trip following a fair fourth-placed finish in a maiden hurdle at Sedgefield on Boxing Day.

The opening mark looks well within range and there is every chance a first-time tongue-tie will have a positive effect.

Hobb's Delight encountered one when runner-up tackling track and trip sixteen days ago. Can remain a major contender despite a 4.4lb rise in weights.

It's tough to discount Fantomas who runs off the same rating as when second over course and distance in October.

Matoury warrants thought now significantly raised in journey delivering initial handicap outing.

 

Southwell selections in full:

SOUTHWELL: 1.25 Catlin, 1.55 My Gift To You, 2.25 Act Of Authority, 2.55 Minniemum, 3.25 Globe Player, 4.00 Getaway Glory.
