TODAY’S HIGHLIGHTED RUNNER

Givemefive
“He comes into this race in good form after a confidence boosting win at Newcastle last time out. The one negative is that he carries a lot of weight but I’ve been really happy with his preparation. I haven’t been happy with him all of the winter but I think he’s in great shape now. I think he’ll be fine on the ground, I wouldn’t mind a bit of rain to ease things off slightly but he goes there in great form, I think the track will suit him and I’m looking forward to running him.”

News in Brief
Palladium leaves Henderson for Gosden flat return
One-time Triumph Hurdle contender Palladium has left Nicky Henderson and joined John and Thady Gosden in Newmarket, where he will be prepared for a return to the Flat. Last season’s German Derby winner, who cost Lady Bamford €1.4 million last October, has a mid-season target of the Group 2 Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot.
Willie Mullins trails Dan Skelton by less than £1,500 in the trainers’ title
Willie Mullins is no bigger than 1-6 to retain the British jumps trainers’ championship he won for the first time last year after a one-two in the Coral Scottish National put him right on the coattails of long-time leader Dan Skelton. Mullins saddled 17 runners at Ayr on Saturday, including six in the Scottish National, and by the end of racing trailed Skelton by just £1,431.
Captain Cody leads home Mullins one-two
Captain Cody benefited from an ultra-patient ride by Harry Cobden to lead home a one-two for Willie Mullins in the Coral Scottish Grand National at Ayr. For much of the straight it appeared as if his stablemate Klarc Kent who would be the one to provide Mullins with back-to-back successes in the marathon chase, but Cobden was smuggling his mount into the race.
Duty First storms home in Fred Darling
Duty First caused a 33-1 shock in the Dubai Duty Free Stakes when routing the opposition under Hollie Doyle at Newbury. The Archie Watson-trained filly had shown some decent form as a juvenile, with her best performance coming when third in the Rockfel Stakes at Newmarket.
RECENT LAMBOURN WINNERS
Poetisa
Toby BulginPoetisa has been working very well at home and we are looking forward to her run.
A Moments Madness
Warren GreatrexRan well first time after a wind op. Should have gained confidence from that and would be great to see him go close today.
Audacious Annie
Jamie SnowdenGiven time to strengthen and mature, we put her in the deep end on her comeback run in a Listed event at Cheltenham, and she wasn't quite up to that. She was back on track with a good 2nd on her hurdling debut where a mistake at the 3rd last cost her a winning chance. She was 3rd next time out in a race that is working out very well, and she didn't need to improve much to win last time out where she appreciated the better ground. She carries a penalty here, but so do her two main rivals, and she should be capable of winning again here.
Sweet Reward
Jonathan PortmanSweet Reward returns to action another year older but he does seem in great form at home and can go well fresh.
