Decent start to the day, tho should have had some place money on Opal Ridge.
In the 4:20 at Catterick, Springaway looks to represent really good value. Whilst the trainer hasn't had a winner in over a year, Springaway's mark is such that he has to be supported either way as he's shaped as if in need of the run on each of his last 2. His price is such that you can save on Whistle Blowing, who I reckon has the second best chance in the race.
Springaway 2pts e/w
Whistle Blowing 1pt e/w
Finally the conditional jockeys handicap hurdle at Fontwell features several who should be of interest now handicapping, primarily Choumakeur, who again shaped better than the result in a novice at Newbury last time. Trigger Guard and Dreams Jewel can also be backed at prices which understate their chance because the favourite is too short.
Choumakeur 2pts win
Trigger Guard 1pt win
Dreams Jewel 1pt win
