Race 1 – Leicester Racecourse
OUT THE GLEN does excellent work here, winning over a couple furlong further back in January and a solid 2nd over C&D latest. Chasing has been a good shift for Olly Murphy’s charge and he looks to have found an ideal opening here. DR OAKLEY is interesting in first-time cheekpieces after a respectable 2nd here over further.
Top Tip – OUT THE GLEN (3)
One to consider – DR OAKLEY (7)

FIRST FIGARO came back from a 342 day absence to win with 4 in hand at Doncaster a week ago. He gets to line up off the same mark for the red-hot Venetia Williams and looks hard to oppose. RADETZKY MARCH has been in ripe form of late, notching a double before settling for 2nd at Market Rasen since. He’s entitled to enter the mix but has been upped 23lb since he started winning.
Top Tip – FIRST FIGARO (5)
One to consider – RADETZKY MARCH (4)
Race 3 – Leicester Racecourse
NELSON RIVER toppled a well-regarded rival with 7 in hand at juicy 20/1 odds over C&D last month. He’s headed into the handicaps now and a mark of 133 is workable. FRIEND OR FOE was a bit of a disappointment when 3rd by 26 lengths at Musselburgh latest but with sights lowered off 4lb below his last winning mark he could make a dent.
Top Tip – NELSON RIVER (2)
One to consider – FRIEND OR FOE (1)

Race 4 – Leicester Racecourse
CUT THE MUSTARD got her head in front over C&D latest and a 2lb hike suggests she’s going to make a bold double bid with Bryony Frost retaining the ride. THE EDGAR WALLACE has proven himself in the bumpers and the hurdles and kicked off his chase career with a length win at Market Rasen. He’s sure to come on further and demands respect.
Top Tip – CUT THE MUSTARD (3)
One to consider – THE EDGAR WALLACE (1)
Race 5 – Leicester Racecourse
BILLINGSLEY got back into the swing of things when home with 7+ in hand at Ffos Las over this trip at the start of February. Now upped 8lb, Alastair Ralph’s 10 year old looks capable of a compelling double bid. PRIDE OF LECALE is interesting having shown plenty of promise in these ranks but might have a bit more maturing to do before accounting for the selection here.
Top Tip – BILLINGSLEY (2)
One to consider – PRIDE OF LECALE (1)

Race 6 – Leicester Racecourse
ECU DE LA NOVERIE is back from 112 days off and heads back into the chase ranks with cheekpieces refitted. He was holding his own at higher levels prior to the break so if he’s able to pick up where he left off he can make a winning return. CAPTAINE finished first at Stratford before being disqualified for his rider weighing in light. He has since found 2nd between the flags and could be on track for atonement.
Top Tip – ECU DE LA NOVERIE (5)
One to consider – CAPITAINE (3)
