Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Norman Fletcher No. 3
Sam Twiston-Davies · Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies
✓ Top rated ✓ Trainer in form (10/28, 14 days)
Norman Fletcher heads our ratings on 125 and looks the right choice over this 22f trip at Newton Abbot, with the good ground posing no obvious concern. Mount Anglesby is the chief danger, only a pound behind on 124, so this looks a two-horse contest at the top. Beorma and Coconut Twist, both on 111, are best placed of the rest but have a lot to find with the front pair. Norman Fletcher is the selection.
Runners
Joe Anderson (3)
Tom Britten 0/0
Two wins in his last five starts, including one three starts back, and a fourth two runs ago, make Mount Anglesby a leading threat. He has run over today's trip and going before, and our rating ranks him second of six, but a fall last time out and 165 days off are the concerns.

Harry Skelton
Dan Skelton 19/80
Beorma won five of her last six starts, a streak that makes her a leading danger, and she has run on today's going before. The one concern is a pulled-up effort last time out, after 53 days off and with 164 lb on her back.

Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies 10/28
Runner-up last time out and a third two starts back, Norman Fletcher has been consistent without a win in his last five starts, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Our rating makes him the one to beat, with a yard in cracking form (10 from 28), though 162 lb is a hefty burden.

Quickly back after eight days, Coconut Twist has run over today's trip and going before, and our rating of 111 sits above his official 105 while he carries 155 lb. The main risk is a form line that reads unplaced last time out and a fifth two starts back, with no win in his last five.

Jack Tudor
Christian Williams 1/14
Top Coeur is winless in his last five, finishing ninth last time out, and a fifth five starts back is his best effort in that run, so he is hard to fancy. Quick back up after eight days, he has run on today's going and our figure of 110 ranks him fifth of six.

Mr J J Murphy-Knight (7)
Christian Williams 1/14
Faded Fantasy is winless in his last six, with unplaced and eighth-place efforts in his last two before that fourth, and he is hard to fancy back quickly after just seven days. Carrying 146 lb off an official mark of 96, his only positive is that he has run on today's going before, while our rating ranks him sixth of six.
