With the new jumps season up and running, the Silver Trophy takes centre stage at Chepstow with Wellington Arch and Masked Man set to feature; we also have competitive action from Hexham and Southwell, live on Sky Sports Racing from 1.35pm
\nWe have a busy day’s racing on Saturday with action from Chepstow, Hexham and Southwell, live on Sky Sports Racing… The feature Wasdell Group Silver Trophy Handicap Hurdle at Chepstow looks a belter with Masked Man and Wellington Arch among a host of contenders. Masked Man has been at the head of the market all week and this lightly raced five-year-old must be feared on handicap debut. He scored on two of his four hurdles starts last season while running with credit in Graded company and ought to be involved.<\/p>\n
Wellington Arch has a very different profile having landed a pair of handicaps on his last two outings. Ultra-impressive when landing a strong Aintree contest, he will need more again to defy a further seven-pound rise. Melon claimed an Aintree handicap on his last hurdling run and arrives fit from a spin on the Flat. Glynn Brae and The Mighty Celt are others will obvious each-way chances as well as last year’s victor Rambo T.<\/p>\n
Prolific Passing Diamond takes on three rivals in a trappy Cast Novices’ Limited Handicap Chase at Hexham. The Ben Haslam-trained six-year-old has relished the switch to fencing winning both starts at Cartmel and deserves a crack at this better race. A natural jumper, he ought to take some catching. Tiddesley Wood is the chief danger as he makes his debut for trainer Adrian Keatley.<\/p>\n
He doubled his tally over hurdles when landing a Kempton novice on his final start for Fergal O’Brien and remains of interest over fences. Ballykinlar and Passengerontheship complete the quartet.

\nRecent winner Tanjen features among a field of nine for the competitive Pilsner To The Post Handicap at Southwell.<\/p>\n
Tim Easterby’s four-year-old has won over this course and distance and arrives on the back of a comfortable success at Hamilton. Up seven pounds, he switches back to the all-weather and will be fancied to follow up. Star Noir bounced back to life with an eight-and-a-half length victory at Catterick and reverts to handicaps with strong claims. David O’Meara’s top-weight Goyard was only just denied over this course and distance last month and a similar effort would put him in the frame despite a one-pound rise.<\/p>\n
