Storyline of the day 📖
2.00 Plumpton - Ding Ding
Sheena West's pint-sized mare is hugely popular with the Plumpton faithful.
Each of the eight-year-old's five victories over hurdles had come at the Sussex track.
And she added a sixth win in fine style, scampering clear up the hill for a six-length success, much to the delight of on-course punters.

Burnt fingers 🔥
Plumpton nightmare for Gary Moore
Gary Moore is no stranger to success at Plumpton, one of his local tracks.
But the West Sussex trainer and his followers had a day to forget with TWO odds-on shots turned over.
Graasten fluffed a golden opporunity when second in the novice chase as the 1-8 (!) jolly, and in the following race The Flying Sofa (8-13) also found one too good. Ouch.

4.15 Uttoxeter - Crucial Role
Dan Skelton's exciting chaser didn't exactly go under the radar on Monday.
He won hard-held by 15 lengths from a decent field over 2m6f at Uttoxeter.
The owner holds him in the highest regard and he looks a live contender for the Ultima Handicap at Cheltenham.
