Jump racing ~ Friday 18th November

1:20 Haydock: Doctor David 1pt win 7/1 Bet365 On the face of it Doctor David could have it all on after a 589 day absence and a penalty. However, despite the presence of Paul Nicholls and Nicky Henderson trained runners it may pay to side with Lawney Hill's inmate. Mrs Hill does well with horses transferred to her and Doctor David had some decent form when with Caroline Bradley winning three times here. As a novice chaser he beat Kalahari King and Planet of Sound over hurdles. Worth a small interest.

Re: Jump racing ~ Friday 18th November Ascot 2.45 Piraya 0.5pt EW - 8/1 Bet365 Lads Ran a stormer in this race off 5 lb higher and maybe the time to catch him is fresh. Interesing race with many having a chance, but equally many not that well handicapped as the market suggest. If the selection can reproduce last year's effort, that might be enough for a win here. 5lbs lower and another 3lbs claimed by Conor O'Farrell will be handy. 3.20 Ballycarney 0.5pt EW - 10/1 Boyle Lads Competitive affiar, but this fella didn't jumpt at all lto and could do a lot better with a clear round. Won 2 handicaps last season and I expect him to progress this year. Ema Lavelle is in fantastic form at the moment and stiff 3 miles will suit the horse. 10/1 looks decent enough price for a small EW nibble.
