Halfway House Lad looks a safe option for at least a place today with a few doubts around the favourite Mythe Bridge and second fav Bo Cruz. Halfway House Lad is well below these two on official ratings but receives a big chunk of weight because of that. Will stay all day and ran well placed in this race last season. Last win was off 74 at Hexham last season when also claimer ridden.

Ran well here two runs back when coming from last to first, only to be disqualified. Next run was also good. No shame in getting beaten by Mr Nugget, who franked the form yesterday. Is better drawn tonight, although for a hold-up horse that's less important than getting a good position and using his finishing speed. Still well handicapped. Win and place bet.

Nice to see Luke Morris up for Tam Lin, which is an eye-catching booking. Tam Lin's last run was his best this season, but he probably went for home a little early in hindsight. Perhaps Luke Morris can make his mind up for him. He has won at Chelmsford off 53, so today's 2 lb higher mark should be OK for a progressive 4yo.

Ahanaglogh is taken to step up on his forst run in a handicap when second at Hereford. Might not find an easier opportunity all season with onlt Palawan Du Mazet a serious contender. Palawan Du Mazet looked an unlikely winner last time with his jumping particually average. But stormed up the straight to win well , the thing is can he do that again after a hard race and 21 day rest. Not sure myself and therefore Ahanaglogh is more of a default selection from a in form stable and lots of scope for improvement.

Going with the class horse in the race, Alto Alto. He is well clear on official ratings, and the two below in the betting both have negatives for me. Kitsilano won last race, but the form book says it needs more of a break between races and doesn't seem to back up a win. So the eleven-day return put me off. Known Warrior, from a stable out of form, is unexposed but lacks experience. Alto Alto is a course- and distance winner and back to Class 4. He is the nap.

Edergoles Gift has to be forgiven the last run when tailed off at this course when a 7/2 chance in the market. Many will be put off by that performance; hence the 25/1 price for this. Going back just five runs finds a Chelmsford Class 6 win off 52. So maybe the handicapper is catching up a bit, as the handicap mark is now 58. But he ran second off this mark at Lingfield two runs back and represents an each-way bet tonight.

Sold Out came good at Newcastle in its latest run and is yet to run on the Lingfield surface. That was a conditions race but still of interest back in a handicap based on the front-running style.

Diligent Harry, officially the highest-rated horse in the field, looks up to Valiant Force in the betting. I'm not sure that's correct, and presumably it's because Diligent Harry is now an 8yo and the younger Valiant Force is the market leader. Diligent Harry also has the course form and is ridden by top jockey Rossa Ryan.

Royal Infantry, from three entries from the Dan Skelton stable, is the selection. Back to hurdles on a high official rating and has the weight for that reason. I believe there are no fancy entries for Cheltenham, so this looks the target. Has won at the trip in the point-to-point sphere and has won on good and soft ground, so that should be fine.

Old boy Harbour Vision is in fine form this season and now seems to be a Wolverhampton specialist. He has also run some good races at Southwell without winning, but has been placed four times. This is a Class 5, which is certainly not beyond him, and he is a big price for a horse that has won his last two races. Maybe the draw in 11 is the reason for the big price; not sure. He has an each-way chance.

Kapitein Kool's recent second to Calvino looks like good enough form to take this today. There's good reason to oppose Doctor Blue after a disappointing run at Doncaster over Christmas. He was a short-priced favourite that day and the trainer reported the horse to have bled. So although my original fancy put me off, Kapitein Kool is a 5yo rated 2 lb below favourite Lisborne Park, so there's not much in it. At the odds, it's Kapitein Kool for me.

Pit Boss went into my notebook three runs back when he was second to Lord Capulet, today's favourite. He has since won and finished second, beaten a neck. He's the sort of horse that I like ??" switched off in the early stages and has a turn of foot at the business end of races. There's no doubt he's well handicapped, and the style of his recent form makes it hard for the handicapper to evaluate the form. Can he get revenge on Lord Capulet? Well, I hope so. Perhaps he won't get his own way up front today and Pit Boss nabs him on the line.

Although not settling in the early stages of races, Criminal put up some eye-catching performances last season. Notably when third here at Kempton to Port of London, who franked the form later. Well fancied on the last two starts as a 4yo, he looks the sort to win a handicap or two with an official rating of 80. The break of 143 days is a bit of a concern, although he has run well before and after a break. Steady in the market tonight, and if not too keen in the early stages could be involved.

Lieutenant Lily is an outsider worth a second look. She has run well off a layoff before, so the long break is not of concern. As a 4yo, she is open to improvement, and the change of stable to Ben Haslem could spark a revival. That stable is currently in good form.

With favourite Joseph not proven at the trip and a 15-race maiden, Masqool can capitalise.
