THE WISE TRAVELLER is fancied to land his third race of the campaign by beating 10 rivals for the Compare 25+ Bookies At Oddschecker Handicap Hurdle at Huntingdon (4.10, Nap).

Charlie Longsdon’s seven-year-old put up a personal best to score by six lengths over course and distance 24 days ago. A 6lb rise in the weights may not be enough to prevent another success, particularly as claimer Cian Chester brings with him a 10lb allowance.

At Ffos Las, BEYOND REDEMPTION can show his 13 rivals a clean pair of heels in the DragonBet Backing Welsh Sport Handicap Chase (3.55, nb).

The nine-year-old had his first run since leaving Peter Flood when getting off the mark under Rules in 11-runner handicap chase at Wincanton 57 days ago. Now in the care of Harry Derham, he had plenty in hand there so has to be taken seriously despite an 11lb hike in the weights.
