The seven-race card gets underway at 12.50pm with the pricedup.bet Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle over two miles and three furlongs in which Warwickshire trainer Olly Murphy saddles two of the five runners. The vote goes, however, to hat-trick seeking Seraphic, the mount of this season's joint leading conditional jockey Isabelle Ryder, who could take this for trainers David Killahena & Graeme McPherson.

Murphy again saddles two in the following PricedUp Novices' Hurdle over two miles and five furlongs including Kefir d'Oudairies who had also been entered in the opening race, but it's his other runner, the consistent Largy Force, the mount of Kevin Brogan, who might come out on top.

Just four contest the Warwick Supports Our Farmers Novices' Handicap Chase and, in what looks a tight race, Crystal Days, having her first run since wind surgery, could follow up her course win over hurdles in May.

Top weight Broadway Honey seeks a four-timer in the Hazelton Mountford Insurance Handicap Chase over three miles. She carries a 7lb penalty for her win at Huntingdon at the beginning of the month, but is difficult to oppose whilst in such good form.

Six line up for the Denis O'Connell Memorial Handicap Hurdle (Challenger Stayers Hurdle Series Qualifier) over three miles and one furlong, including five-time hurdle winner Paddy De Pole, owned by the Mick Fitzgerald Racing Syndicate, who scored for the first time in a year at Sedgefield in September. Course winner I'm A Starman is now at the veteran stage and the Murphy-trained Secret Trix is running consistently and may get his reward this time.

Tropical Talent has been knocking on the door this season and a recent run on the flat at Wolverhampton should put him spot on for the PricedUp Daily Sports Boosts Handicap Chase with Alba Crus, who unseated his rider at the penultimate fence at Worcester in May and returns after wind surgery, the danger.

It's three seasons since Upper Lambourn trainer Jonathan Portman's last had a runner over jumps and he saddles Star Of Joy in the closing Castle Fillies' "Junior" National Hunt Flat Race. With none of the seven contestants having seen a racecourse before, the betting may be the best guide and Katies Turn, the mount of Jonathan Burke, could be one to look out for.
