2.45 Plumpton

Theonlywayiswessex was an easy winner over course and distance last time out and even from a 10lb higher mark many will be looking to him to follow up, but chasing debutant KORUS looks an interesting proposition and might be good enough at the first time of asking.

In the frame three times from four starts over hurdles already, he was a solid third at Ffos Las last time, staying on steadily all the way up the home straight, and although he raced away from the main pack on the inside for much of that contest, that doesn’t appear to have been any great plus point, and the form looks believable.

He’s a half-brother to the useful chasers Torn And Frayed and Pozo Emery, so there’s every hope he’s going to be better again over the bigger obstacles.

3.45 Plumpton

It’s the slightly-later-than-normal Sussex National at Plumpton today, saved after their meeting earlier in the year was abandoned due to waterlogging. No such issues today, but we were all for putting DOM OF MARY up that day, and not a lot has happened since to change our minds.

An easy winner of this event last year, he ran just as well at Sandown on his subsequent start to think this revised mark isn’t going to be an issue. He badly needed his first run of this year at Ascot, and that was without his usual cheekpieces, which are back on today, and the pulled-up effort is easy enough to forgive.

The rain at Plumpton on Sunday and overnight certainly won’t harm his chances, and it’s of some interest he’s been saved for this when other contests were available to him once the January meeting had been called off, suggesting this has been his target.
