Back-to-lay Elkstone, Rhymers Stone and De Benno
2.05 Leicester
The front-running Elkstone should get his own way upfront in this 2 mile handicap chase. He's traded below at least half his BSP in-running in 6 of his last 7 races, including his last four races which were over fences since he made the transition from hurdling; he currently trades around 7.40 for a back-to-lay.
3.35 Kelso
Rhymers Stone is up 5lb for a three quarter length victory over Captain Clayton at Newcastle last time out, though it is a considerable rise the pair were clear of their field. Prior to his victory he had traded below at least half his BSP in-running in the three previous races; including once here at Kelso over 2m2f where he traded all the way down to 12.0 in-running from a BSP of 57.44; he looks a decent back-to-lay at 5.30 on Betfair.
4.00 Clonmel
De Benno hasn't won since 2015 but the booking of Davy Russell has caught the eye in this handicap at Clonmel. He hasn't won since 2015 but he has been a great horse to lay in-running and a firm back-to-lay favourite. He was going well last time out until falling at the 7th fence here and with the heavy ground in his favour he does look a decent back-to-lay; he currently trades around 9.0 for a back-to-lay.
