Niloufar is expected to double his tally in the Download The Raceday Ready App Handicap at Lingfield.
The daughter of Tamayuz showed precious little in three outings in maiden and novice company, meaning she entered the handicap arena from a lowly perch of just 46.
She took full advantage on her handicap bow at Chelmsford with a comfortable win four weeks ago and the form looks sound with third placed Profitman winning twice since.
The assessor has not missed Niloufar, slapping her with a 9lb hike, but she is open to further progress and this race will not take a lot of winning.
Golden Path is the pick in the Download The Racecourse App Raceday Ready Restricted Maiden Stakes.
A daughter of Golden Horn, Kevin Philippart De Foy’s youngster was a big eyecatcher when making late gains to finish fourth over a mile on her debut at this track a month ago.
She should be sharper for the experience and with a step up to a mile and a quarter viewed as a positive, Golden Path should prove hard to beat.
Jayyash can make it third time lucky in the Try Unibet’s New Acca Boosts Novice Stakes at Kempton.
A €420,000 two-year-old purchase last spring, the Siyouni colt first stepped foot on a racecourse on Newmarket’s July course in August and was not disgraced in finishing fifth behind subsequent Royal Lodge scorer Ghostwriter when looking in need of the experience.
On the strength of that form John and Thady Gosden’s youngster was odds-on for his second start at Southwell last month, but came off second best in a battle with newcomer Federal Envoy.
The winner has since disappointed in the mud at Pontefract, but Jayyash nevertheless remains a horse of some potential and is backed to get off the mark before moving into handicaps.
Karl Burke’s North Yorkshire raider Jackson Street could be the answer to the Unibet More Extra Place Races Handicap.
The son of Dany Man has run well in defeat in his last couple of races, notably finishing third in a race that has worked out particularly well at Southwell early in the new year, with the winner Queen Of Zafeen subsequently going close in Listed company and the runner-up Solomon winning easily next time.
An opening mark of 77 for Jackson Street’s handicap bow looks workable, albeit in a competitive heat.
Recent Lingfield victor No Half Measures, trained by the in-form Richard Hughes, rates the best bet at Wolverhampton in the Get The Inside Track With raceday-ready.com Fillies’ Restricted Novice Stakes, while Jet Plane can do his bit do aid trainer Dan Skelton’s title charge at Market Rasen.
The eight-year-old has won four times from 12 attempts over fences, most recently striking gold at Sandown last month.
While three of his triumphs were achieved over trips in excess of three miles, Jet Plane proved effective back over two-and-a-half on his most recent outing, albeit on a stiff track.
He runs over a similar distance in Lincolnshire and with a 2lb rise perfectly fair, another bold bid should be anticipated in the “Rasen Rocks” Featuring James Arthur Handicap Chase.
King Of The Road has an obvious chance of making it back-to-back course wins in the Market Rasen Racecourse’s Centenary Celebration Year Handicap Hurdle.
The five-year-old was never a factor in his sole bumper start or in his first four starts over hurdles, but proved his worth on his second outing in handicap company here at the end of March.
Ridden confidently by Kielan Woods, Ben Pauling’s charge was good value for the winning margin of just over three lengths and he has every chance of following up just 10 days later under a 7lb penalty.
