‘Each-way’ is for your horse to come first or to be placed. It’s two bets, so ‘£2 each-way’ = £4 total bet.

Decide the amount – or stake – you are comfortable to bet.

CAN’T BEAT HISTORY didn’t let a 9-month absence get in the way of him scoring over hurdles at Warwick last month and he’s taken to make it 4 successive wins back chasing at a track that should suit. Ajp Kingdom has began to jump with more fluency and is respected after a good effort at Cheltenham last time, whilst course specialist Giovanni Change should also give another good account.

PLAY SMARTER

UOKHUN has improved since moving up in trip and while an 8lb rise for last month’s Southwell success demands a new personal best, she may well proved equal to the task. Next on the list is Bethpage, who lost no caste in defeat at Cheltenham and, like the selection, she is unexposed as a stayer. Billy Boi Blue won’t go down without a fight and he is also shortlisted, along with Letterston Lady
