SBC News: Hollies Pearl

Faded late on recently at Doncaster, but less of a quality field for this one.

bettingexpert: Hollies Pearl

Has not fulfilled the promise of her bumper efforts yet, but could improve for decent ground at this more galloping track.

Timeform: Hollies Pearl

Hasn’t looked a total natural over hurdles but does have plenty of ability and this test will suit her better than the one at Doncaster did last time.

Tipstrr: Mardale

The ground at Haydock should suit the 2^nd favourite.

SBC News: Double W’s

Again there are doubts, but form has been pretty good and should be the quality horse in this race.

bettingexpert: Double W’s

Has run really well against some useful performers and has been found a great opening to break his duck.

Timeform: Double W’s

May have won but for suffering significant interference on the final circuit at Catterick last time and can put matters right here.

Tipstrr: Altruism

He is in with a good chance here, and the price offers some real value.

SBC News: Daveron

Looking for a hat-trick of wins at Haydock, albeit in a higher quality race.

bettingexpert: Shimla Dawn

Did not stay 3m 1f in a better race at Catterick last time and remains open to improvement over fences for his excellent small yard.

Timeform: Daveron

Can make it 3 wins from 4 starts over fences. Deadly Sting is open to improvement after 10 months off and could emerge as his biggest danger.

Tipstrr: Some Buckle

Expect Nick Scholfield to ride well, and Some Buckle to be too strong.

SBC News: Three Colours Red

Trained by Warren Greatrex, the quicker ground should suit the 4-year old Three Colours Red.

bettingexpert: Three Colours Red

Has been given a very attractive opening mark and will relish this better ground on handicap debut.

Timeform: Beatu

Was much better for his comeback when third at Catterick 3 weeks ago and can start to make up for lost time off what looks a fair opening mark.

Tipstrr: Blue April

Another horse with a good price, and the good going will suit him.

SBC News: Quito Du Tresor

Listen Boy’s last performance didn’t inspire any confidence, so we’re siding with the longer odds veteran Quito Du Tresor.

bettingexpert: Listen Boy

Takes a big drop in grade and can defy top weight with Twiston-Davies back in top form.

Timeform: Listen Boy

Has been given a chance by the handicapper and can take advantage back from a break. Whiskey Ridge and Fiddlers Reel both have long absences to overcome but are on handy marks if they retain their ability.

Tipstrr: Lord Landen

Good over this distance, and with the going good he could well win here.

SBC News: Sharpasaknife

Made an impressive, winning debut in January and gained more credit with a creditable 2^nd place at Market Rasen on 9^th February.

bettingexpert: Beware The Bear

Less exposed than these rivals and could improve a chunk for decent ground.

Timeform: Sharpasaknife

Impressed when making a winning debut at Wetherby in January, and acquitted himself with plenty of credit when runner-up at Market Rasen last month.

Tipstrr: Sharpasaknife

A favourite to finish on top at Haydock; expect him to run as strongly as the odds suggest.
