Newton Abbot set to be buzzing on Wednesday as Sky Sports Racing brings live jumps action from the South West's premier racing venue.
In a promising South West Rail Solutions Ltd. Novices' Hurdle, A Pai De Nom is expected to build on his initial experience when taking on Gentleman Toboot in the 1:23 event. Dan Skelton's five-year-old made a perfect start over hurdles last month and has shown useful form in a Chepstow bumper. Meanwhile, David Pipe's Gentleman Toboot has undergone wind surgery since finishing runner-up behind a Skelton horse at Chepstow.
The 2:53 CompWiz Solutions For Business Handicap Hurdle looks like a mouth-watering contest with prolific King Of The Lake seeking to extend his winning streak in this event. Jeremy Scott's seven-year-old has been on fire since a wind operation, claiming all three starts readily and now faces a stiff challenge from J J Moon.
A competitive Itus Events, Safety And Security Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle is also on offer at 1:53, with Public Enemy and The Hardest Geezer battling it out. Both have strong claims, with Anthony Honeyball's Public Enemy having doubled his tally over obstacles in a recent Stratford win.
While not as highly rated, the form of Gentleman Toboot's Worcester maiden victory suggests he has an intriguing chance at Newton Abbot, while Tommy Pickles looks like the pick of the remainder.
