Average toteplacepot dividend at this meeting (5 years) £498.34
Average toteplacepot dividend at Plumpton in 2006: £328.82 (14 meetings)—in 2007: £99.36 (19 meetings)--in 2008: £220.98 (15 meetings)--in 2009: £321.51 (13 meetings)

2.30 Four-year-olds have won all four renewals to date and the trend is expected to continue via ALITTLEMOREFLAIR, whilst the Donovan newcomer SIRJOSH would not have a be a ‘natural’ jumper of timber to figure prominently in this grade/company. Nick Gifford has his team in decent toteplacepot form whereby WIZARD OF ODDS should go close, possibly alongside COUP ROYALE.

'favourite factor': Two of the four favourites have finished in the frame (one winner).

3.00 The potential market leaders in this event hail from stables with not the best strike rate percentages to their respective names whereby I prefer the likes of PIPER ROYAL, KIRIBATI KING and M’LORD BISHOP on this occasion.

'favourite factor': The last five favourites have all secured toteplacepot positions (three winners).

3.30 Two of the bottom three horses in the list might allow potential each way (bet to nothing) investors to take advantage of this ‘dead eight’ event. SHE’S HUMBLE, MAXIMIX and TOKPELA are three such individuals, albeit JORDAN’S LIGHT is a more logical winner of the contest.

'favourite factor': Both favourites have obliged for punters thus far.

4.00 Eight runners would have helped punters in this event as well, as the seven contenders make as much appeal as a visit to the mother-in-law or dentist, not that there is much difference between the two! Upwards and onwards in positive mode however by suggesting that the Ron Hodges pair ROYAL PROGIDY and COMPTON STAR might represent the column as well as any of the other five alternatives. GLOBAL STRATEGY is offered up as ’next best’.

'favourite factor': All three favourites have been beaten to date with only one of the trio of market leaders finishing in the money.

4.30 Runners from the Ian Williams yard have gone off the boil compared to the staggering form they were showing a few weeks back but that fact might not stop WILLANDRICH from completing his hat trick in this grade/company. A winner of four of his last five races (five from ten in his career), WILLANDRICH brings a rich vein of consistency to the party which might prove too much for the likes of FIREDOG and JORDAN.

'favourite factor': All three have finished out of the frame thus far.

5.00 Another seven runner contest comes to the aid of bookmakers who have just enjoyed one of their best trading weeks during the last decade. The two course and distance winners PORTRAIT ROYALE and DEEP POCKETS make (marginally) more appeal than VALENTIA ISLAND who might just need this outing after a spell on the sidelines.

'favourite factor': Only one of the three favourites (winner) has secured a toteplacepot position to date.
