Haydock, Southwell (a.w.) and Wetherby (N.H.) this afternoon

Richard Hannon and Richard Hughes are in unstoppable form at the moment and can continue their winning ways at Haydock with Gene Autry, who has top-weight in the 3yo handicap over 7 furlongs at 17.00 CET. Jeremy Noseda´s High Importance (Paul Hanagan) is still a maiden, but looks the main danger. Hanagan also has a chance on Richard Fahey´s Gala Casino Star in the mile handicap at 16.25, but this looks a very tricky race.

Just Bond (Geoff Oldroyd/ Barry McHugh), a CD winner in April who has run another good race since, and Jordaura (JR Holt/ Jerry O´Dwyer), runner-up last time at Ascot, are possibly the most solid options here. The two best events at Southwell are the 3yo handicaps at 16.55 and 17.25 over 5 furlongs and a mile respectively. Both look quite open. The former may go to Dancing Freddie (James Given/ Franny Norton), third at Chester last time over 6 furlongs and better suited by this trip, while the two unbeaten runners Capponi (Mark Johnston/ Jor Fanning) and Nazreef (Hughie Morrison/ Travis Block) might fight out the finish of the latter.

Tony McCoy travels up to Yorkshire for three rides at Wetherby´s N.H. fixture and it is quite possible that he will win on all of them - Evan Williams´ King of Castile in the selling hurdle at 15.00, Mark Tompkins´ Astrolibra in the mares maiden hurdle half an hour later, and Tim Vaughan´s Quo Video, who can complete a hat-rick in the novice hurdle at 18.15.
