**14.38 Lakeland Verandahs Maiden Hurdle**
**EMIYN**, a talented stayer on the Flat, has shown promise by placing in both starts in this arena amid tougher challenges.
**Tips: EMIYN**
**15.08 Hadwins Mares’ Handicap Hurdle**
**SHANTOU SUNSET** boasts commendable form at this course in higher-grade events, placing multiple times off tougher marks. She improved to finish fourth last month and is a strong contender here. **VARINIA** also demands attention, having won convincingly at Fakenham and enters this race just 3lb higher, with the longer distance likely to benefit her, making her a prominent threat.
**Tips: SHANTOU SUNSET & VARINIA**
**15.43 Krol Corlett Handicap Chase**
**FAIRLAWN FLYER** is currently in excellent form, having won his last four races, including over this course and distance, and aims for a fifth consecutive win. However, **EQUUS DANCER**, a stablemate, shouldn’t be overlooked as he remains a strong contender based on past performances.
**Tips: FAIRLAWN FLYER & EQUUS DANCER**
**16.18 William Hill Handicap Chase**
**SEAN OG** is a three-time winner in this category, securing two wins over this course and distance, and returns to his last winning mark, commanding respect even with a hefty weight. Though **WHOSHOTTHESHERIFF** isn’t in his prime, his past form makes him a formidable competitor, and **FOLLOW YOUR ARROW** is also in good form.
**Tips: SEAN OG, WHOSHOTTHESHERIFF & FOLLOW YOUR ARROW**
**16.55 Warrior Down Novices’ Handicap Chase**
**SKY LUNA** has underperformed recently but her previous two in-the-frame efforts here are notable, making her a contender if she rebounds. Irish contender **CLOUGHROE** has narrowly missed victories in his last two outings and poses a strong challenge.
**Tips: SKY LUNA & CLOUGHROE**
**17.30 John Wade Amateur Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle**
**GAME MANAGEMENT** has adapted well to hurdles, winning and placing in two starts, and may be well-handicapped for his debut in this category. He’s an interesting option at big odds, while **GREENROCK ABBEY** is compellingly “well in” by 10lb following a 12-length victory over fences at Market Rasen just a week ago.
