Destroytheevidence to bag Boyne honours

Destroytheevidence has age on his side against a relatively exposed set of rivals in the Weatherbys nhstallions.co.uk Boyne Cup at Ludlow on Wednesday.

The Kim Bailey and Mat Nicholls-trained seven-year-old was an above-average hurdler, finishing second in Grade Two company, and has taken well to jumping fences.

October's Chepstow defeat of Haiti Couleurs reads really well considering what the runner-up has achieved since, albeit his three subsequent wins include gaining revenge when Destroytheevidence disappointed at Cheltenham in December.

Destroytheevidence put that blip behind him when going down by just a neck to Deafening Silence following an engaging duel at Warwick in February and now has the scope to see off a field of veteran opponents.

Mister Cessna can take advantage of the weight he receives from Bond Broker in the Nightjar Novices' Hurdle.

Fergal O'Brien's charge was out of his depth when finishing down the field in the Fred Winter but had previously been a solid second to the highly rated Viyanni here and had some decent form in France.

At Exeter, Super Saint stands out in the Dr Hennis 1833 Novices' Handicap Hurdle after coming good for Paul Nicholls at Sedgefield last time out.

Having faced tough assignments on his first three outings over timber, the six-year-old attracted strong support on his handicap debut and ran on well to prevail by a comfortable 3 lengths.

A half-brother to classy French performer Champ De Bataille, Super Saint seems capable of continuing on a steep upward curve now the penny has dropped.

On the Flat at Musselburgh, newcomer Filly Foden is of interest in the Livescore Bet EBF Restricted Novice Stakes having been the subject of some glowing reports from the Alice Haynes gallops.

The daughter of Ardad is a half-sister to two winners, including a Listed-class scorer in France.

Spartan Arrow can make the long journey up from Archie Watson's Lambourn yard worthwhile in the Virgin Bet Daily Price Boosts Handicap.

Twice a winner at three, he was sidelined after an eye-catching third of 17 in a hot York contest last May but has recently shown his well-being on the all weather.

Following a Newcastle sighter, the five-year-old son of Sioux Nation landed some tasty bets at Wolverhampton when getting up close home and looks one to keep on side.

Margot Robbie is rated the star attraction on Southwell's all-weather card in the second division of the Gamble Responsibly At BetMGM Handicap.

After returning from a lengthy absence, Geoff Oldroyd's mare was an excellent head second at this venue before going one better in fine style at Newcastle and she is taken to cope with a 5lb uplift. - Press Association
