Racing Insider Lucky 15 Tips

Contre Ordre (1:50pm Sedgefield)

Arrived from France at the start of last season with a rating of 117. Well beaten on his stable debut over hurdles and didn't feature in any of his five chase starts. Ran much better on his reappearance here over two-and-a-half miles, staying on to finish a close fourth having been bumped a couple of times. Slight drop back in trip should suit, as will the softer ground, and he could be very well-handicapped running off this lowly mark of 89.

Mountain Leopard (2:10pm Southwell)

Well-beaten in twp handicap hurdle starts last season. Showed much more promise on his final two novice hurdle starts, finishing a close second behind short-priced favourites at Chepstow and here at Southwell. Makes his return to action running off a workable mark of 106. Venetia Williams' horses remain in fantastic form and Ned Fox is excellent value for his three-pound claim.

Noble Blue (2:30pm Tramore)

Went close on his final point-to-point start. Had three quick novice hurdle runs over the summer, finishing a decent third on debut for Paul Nolan at Down Royal. Jumped OK on his chase debut at Gowran Park 17 days ago, finishing a clear second behind a front-running favourite. Finished a healthy distance ahead of his two market rivals that day and there's plenty of scope for further improvement.

Zuckerberg (2:50pm Sedgefield)

Useful dual-purpose horse, who has reached a mark of 102 over fences. Having struggled towards the back-end of last season, Sean Quinlan's mount ran a lovely race on his reappearance over this course-and-distance three weeks ago, where he was run down by hot-favourite Tom Creen after a slow jump at the last. Two pounds higher for that effort, but he's still well-treated running off 89 and that run is the best piece of form on offer.
