14:10 Newton Abbot Maiden Hurdle (Class 3) 22f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

SONGO won as an odds-on favourite should on his return to hurdles here last month and a reproduction of that effort may see Milton Harris' gelding add another C&D victory to his tally. This is the furthest Donnie Azoff has gone, but he can't be discounted now back from the larger obstacles and is feared most. Spitalfield's jumping let him down at Fontwell but still completes the shortlist.

Despite some hit-and-miss jumping, SONGO still proved a class apart when opening his account in this sphere in a C&D novice 5 weeks ago and, in the hope he's sharper in that department, a bold showing could be on the cards again under a penalty. Donnie Azoff, returned to timber, may emerge as the lead threat, with Spitalfield and Blackacre another couple to note.

Songo is an obvious starting point but the pick is DONNIE AZOFF, who has the form to pose a potent threat if back on song.

14:45 Newton Abbot Handicap Chase (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

JONY MAX found only a subsequent winner too strong at Cartmel and Christian Williams' charge is fancied to register a first success of the season off only 2lb higher. Easkey Lad found the Summer Cup at Uttoxeter too hot to handle, but was progressive at Ffos Las prior to it and better is expected in these calmer waters. He could give the selection most to think about, ahead of Manintheshadows and O'Faolains Lad.

HUNTING PERCIVAL was a winner over hurdles at Stratford on his penultimate outing and proved himself just as good over fences when second there on his latest outing. He's fancied to go one better on just his third chase start, with Easkey Lad, who was in fine heart before being meeting much tougher opposition last time, and the consistent Jony Max also much respected.

The vote goes to JONY MAX, who has found more progress this summer and was only narrowly denied in a similar race at Cartmel last time.

15:20 Newton Abbot Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

ZABEEL CHAMPION justified strong support when defying a 192-day absence at Perth and should take some stopping off only 3lb higher. Nibras Gold had to settle for third when sent off at odds-on at Worcester, although first-time cheekpieces might eke some improvement out of David Pipe's five-year-old and it's too soon to be writing him off. Sisterandbrother has been raised 4lb after going down by just a neck at Market Rasen, but he can't be discounted either.

SISTERANDBROTHER resumed his progress over hurdles when second at Market Rasen last time, losing out by only a neck, so he is taken to go one better with more still to offer in this sphere. Clearance has run well at this C&D on his last 2 starts and is respected, while Zabeel Champion also merits consideration.

The most interesting runner is arguably RIDGEWAY, who has lost his way over fences but reverts to hurdling on a very attractive mark.

15:55 Newton Abbot Handicap Chase (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

LERMOOS LEGEND gained reward for some fine efforts in defeat with a two-length success at Worcester over 2m7f earlier this month. A 4lb raised mark may not be enough to halt his progression, especially as the application of first-time blinkers could bring about further improvement. Line Of Descent could only manage third at Stratford but will appreciate the longer distance and is feared ahead of Perth winner Enemenemynemo, who is now 2lb higher.

ENEMENEMYNEMO impressed with his jumping when going in at Perth and with few miles still on the clock he can follow up at the chief expense of C&D scorer Fat Sam, who rates a big threat. Both Glengeever and Line of Descent can have a say too in a competitive handicap chase.

Several have possibilities but the vote goes to FAT SAM (nap) who chased home a major improver in a Class 3 event over C&D last time.

16:30 Newton Abbot Handicap Hurdle (Class 2) 22f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Tommie Beau reverts to timber following two comfortable victories over fences and commands attention, but MERRY BERRY is fancied to come on from her return to action at Worcester last month and gets the vote. She is now rated just 2lb above her last winning mark and seems to go well for Tom Broughton, who is back in the saddle. Dicey Rielly was successful at Worcester when sent chasing for her latest outing and can give the selection plenty to think about.

Like so many from the Peter Bowen stable DICEY RIELLY is thriving at present and might be able to defy the handicapper again. Recent C&D 1-2 Thirtyfourstitches and Eritage head the many dangers along with Tommie Beau, who returns to hurdles on the back of two chase wins.

Preference is for MERRY BERRY, who is on a good mark and may not have been suited by the switch to patient tactics last time.

17:00 Newton Abbot NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

A case can be made for several of these, but DONTMESSWITHME kept on to fill the runner-up spot over C&D on her racecourse bow and is taken to build on that. Only losing out to a more experienced rival on that occasion, the daughter of Court Cave can get the better of Alright Dai, who has joined the Neil Mulholland team since occupying the runner-up spot at Warwick in February. The unraced Full Monty is another to bear in mind.

FULL MONTY is with a shrewd stable and is related to a bumper winner, so he's worth chancing on debut, particularly if the market vibes are right. Dontmesswithme shaped well here on debut and merits respect and point-winner Ballela Blaze is worthy of respect.

It might be worth siding with Fergal O'Brien's striking newcomer FULL MONTY, who has plenty of bumper winners in his useful pedigree.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
