WITH fitness having to be taken on trust so early in the jumps season it is probably wise to concentrate on in-form trainers and Fergal O'Brien, Nigel Twiston-Davies and Dr Richard Newland fit the bill on recent evidence.
The Aintree track will be riding pretty testing but that shouldn't bother IMPERIAL ALCAZAR (12.40), placed in two Listed bumpers last season, one of which came on soft at Ascot. He could be one to watch this season now going hurdling.
MR MULDOON (1.15) steps up further in distance after beating Keith Dalgleish's Sidi Ismael over 2m 5f at Kelso last month and although the runner-up flopped on his next outing at Stratford (possibly something amiss), Mr Muldoon has now won four of his last five starts in the manner of a steadily-improving individual.
THE HOLLOW GINGE (3.35) made a most satisfactory chasing debut on deep ground at Worcester last month, having seven lengths to spare over useful Beware The Bear and yesterday's Cheltenham winner The Conditional. A 5lb rise makes this tougher but he gets the nod over Django Django and Irish raider Plan Of Attack.

A slightly awkward time of the season to start tipping given the the jumps season is kicking off but hopefully we’ll be able to resume where we left off and start building our bankroll once again.
Not sure I could’ve selected a more competitive race but given we are sticking to a strategy, I am fine risking a single point.
19:30 Kempton – POLYBIUS 3/1 0.5pt win, Mythmaker 16/1 0.25pts e/w
Dave Simcock was 2-3 on the AW on Saturday. He has just one out tonight, a horse who hasn’t won in 10 starts, he also has a wide draw to contend with and as such, I’ll half my stake.
The last win this horse managed was this exact race one year ago. He is 4lbs below that mark, a month before that he was winning off 89, which he’ll run off tonight, on board that day was Andrea Atzeni who is on again.
There are 7 CD winners in this race and it looks like a bit of a minefield, there are plenty of ‘outsiders’ I could chance who hold more obvious claims but I will be taking a punt on MYTHMAKER.
The horse has effectively finished last on his previous 5 starts. Weight is less important over the sprints so it may be a foolish bet but he is now 10lbs lower than his last win back in July 18. In Jan 18 he winning over C&D off 105 whereas tonight he is rated 90.
Using form from Jan 18 isn’t going to be too reliable but all 4 horses in behind that day have gone on to better things, the most recent being DONJUAN TRIUMPHANT, a 33/1 C1 winner last weekend at Ascot. The rest have all won at least Class 2 race since.
The jockey owes the page nothing but this selection comes with plenty of risks, I advise using b365 tomorrow and taking a smaller price for more places, you should be able to get at least 10/1 for 5 places, it’ll hopefully be available in the morning and I will adjust my stakes accordingly.
