All today's tips ›Oneforthegutter No. 1, stall 7
Edward Greatrex · Ian Williams
✓ Top rated ✓ Course & distance winner
Oneforthegutter looks the one to beat in this Southwell Class 4 over twelve furlongs, topping our figures on 94 and holding a healthy 5 lb advantage over his nearest pursuer. That is a meaningful edge in a nine-runner field where the bulk of the contenders are bunched in the low 80s, so he should have the legs on most of them if he runs to his level. Nolton Cross is the main danger on 89, with Lady Magu (84) and Prince of Calypso (81) best of the rest. Oneforthegutter is our selection and gets the vote with confidence.

Edward Greatrex
Ian Williams 3/30
Oneforthegutter steps up in confidence after a second last time out, and he has run over today's trip and going before, so conditions hold no fears. Our rating of 94 tops the field, though he is yet to win in his last six starts.

David Probert
Hugo Palmer 0/14
Nolton Cross arrives in solid nick, third last time out and a second four starts back, with experience of both today's trip and the going, and our rating of 89 ranks him second of nine. Yet to win in his last six, he carries 140 lb off 84, which is the main risk.

Edward Bethell 7/17
Prince of Calypso has won twice in his last six starts, including a victory two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and on this going before. Off 134 lb and 27 days since his last run, the main risk is a ninth last time out.

Jason Hart
Michael Herrington 4/16
Optician is hard to fancy on our figures, ranked seventh of nine, and his form has been up and down, with a ninth and an unplaced run in his last six. Still, he won last time out only 14 days ago and has run over today's trip and going.

Sean Dylan Bowen
Roger Varian 2/13
Won two of her last five, including back-to-back victories two and three starts back, and she's fresh enough after 16 days, having run over today's trip and going before. Our rating of 84 backs the case, but a sixth last time out is the worry, and 133 lb is a hefty burden.

Clifford Lee
Jonathan Portman 1/17
John T showed up well when second last time out and has run over today's trip and going, but a ninth two starts back and just one win in his last five starts point to inconsistency. Our rating of 81 ranks him sixth of nine, and he carries 132 lb off an official mark of 76.

Luke Morris
John Butler 1/18
Joseph's recent form reads respectably, with a third last time out and a win two starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before. However, 43 days off, 132 lb to carry and a ninth-of-nine ranking on our figures make him hard to fancy.

Cam Hardie
Antony Brittain 1/8
Fourth last time out and a second four starts back show he can go close, and he has run over today's trip and going, but he is winless in his last six and was only seventh and sixth in the two runs before that. Our rating of 81 sits above his official 75, though 131 lb is a lot to carry.

Hollie Doyle
Rebecca Menzies 2/16
Naval Command is winless in his last five, finishing fifth last time out and fifth two starts back, and he returns after 56 days off, so he's hard to fancy under 129 lb. He has run over today's trip, and our rating of 79 is the one mild positive, though it still ranks him eighth of nine.
