One from the tracker at Punchestown — EVEN THO for Willie Mullins, taken on at the price the second-string jockey booking has created. The mare beat Araminta by 4½ lengths last time and is half-sister to The Enabler. Plus a recap on Sunday's first 5pt Max Bet of the year, Seed Ya Later at Musselburgh.

A focused Sunday — one max bet at Musselburgh. Seed Ya Later in the 16:15, on Jack Channon's standout 2TO maiden angle and a rare yard booking up in Scotland. Tilani and Persuasion noted on a watching brief.

Three angles for three selections today. A jockey edge at Lingfield with NO KNEE NEVER for Henry Callan. A course-and-trip specialist at Newcastle in CUSACK at 28/1 each-way. A drop in grade for CLOCH NUA, also at Newcastle, off 3lb below his last winning mark. Plus the lesson from yesterday's Alto Alto.

Five wins for Chris Gordon, all of them here at Plumpton, and today he drops back to a 0-105 handicap chase with his stable's best course specialist clear on the figures. One 2-point Win bet at 13/2.

Like Provision at Southwell on Wednesday, this is a pedigree play — but an easier one to argue. Provision ran a decent race at 40/1 and I'm hopeful of another solid run for our money today.

One flagged today who is worthy of nothing more than a minimal bet, but on pedigree alone he has to have a minor interest at wild odds of 40/1 currently available. He has shown nothing on his latest two starts, but he shown some form of promise under his former handler.

Three consecutive runs where interference has cost him, and the handicapper has eased him 3lbs for the trouble. One each-way bet at Lingfield, backing a course specialist whose recent form figures need forgiving entirely."

Grand National day at Aintree, and for the first time in many years I've been absolutely set in a selection from a long way out, and I'm staggered he is still such a big price. Hard to say you're confident about a bet in the Grand National at the best of times, let alone on such a quiet run we're
