Steve Mullen guides you through Sunday's racing at Naas and Sedgefield
SEDGEFIELD
1.10
REVERENT CRUST finished like a train to finish second at Haydock last time out. He’s been hiked 7lb for that good run, which was as good as a win.
This isn’t any tougher and he should be right there again.
1.40
BURRENBRIDGE HOTEL has every chance of landing a hat-trick after excellent wins at Hereford and Taunton. Both victories came over this distance and he has no problem with soft ground.
BLOTTOS fell on his hurdling debut but has bounced back really well from that with a win around here and close-up second at Catterick last time out.You would expect more to come at this early stage of his career.
2.40
ASCENDANT dropped into this selling level to win with plenty in hand at Fakenham last time out.
He should have no problem shouldering a penalty for that success and he gets on well with today’s claiming rider.
3.10
DICA goes well around here and showed his fighting spirit by winning in a bobbing finish last time out. He goes over the same distance and underfoot conditions will be similar.
He’s 5lb higher in the weights but will give his all again.

WAZOWSKI won with plenty left in the tank here last time and should handle this step up in distance without any problems. He relishes the soft ground and the handicapper has been fair.
4.10
TOBOGGAN’S GIFT is back with the Donald McCain yard that has more than found its mojo this season.
He was a solid handicapper on the level and it’s interesting to see him thrown straight into a handicap.
