AVOIR Choisi let down favourite-backers at Kempton last time but can reward those who keep the faith as he returns to the track for the Blue Square Median Auction Maiden Stakes.

The son of Choisir was far from disgraced when fourth on his Yarmouth debut and there was enough promise in that effort to see him sent off a short price to get off the mark here last time.

Having been ridden much more prominently, he failed to get home over the mile trip.

This drop back to seven furlongs should see him in a much better light, especially with Jamie Spencer likely to leave it late.

Milne Bay is in the form of his life and looks difficult to oppose in the Play Poker williamhill.com Handicap at Wolverhampton.

David Simcock’s charge won off a mark of 58 at the start of December and has gone on to complete a hattrick, most recently making a mockery of his 62 rating when bolting up by five lengths.

He runs under a 6lb penalty in this event and although he is gradually creeping up the weights, his shrewd handler is more than capable of getting another couple of wins out of him in the coming months.

Sarah’s Art has won his last two starts at Dunstall Park and looks the one to be on in the Ringside Suite – 700 Theatre Style Handicap.

The six-year-old had failed to score in well over a year prior to his victory here at the start of the month – but it did not take him long to follow up last week.

Massini’s Maguire lost little in defeat in Grade One company at Kempton on Boxing Day and faces a much more straightforward task in Huntingdon’s Weatherbys Bloodstock Insurance Novices´ Chase.

The eight-year-old missed last season due to injury but seemed as good as ever on his comeback at Ascot in November when he was not hard pressed to making a winning chasing debut.

Chris Thornton’s Danzatrice improved from her hurdling debut and can break her duck in the Forth One Mares Novices’ Hurdle at Musselburgh.

Fifth on debut behind the highly-regarded Glencree, she was third behind another Howard Johnson runner in Fortysecond Street last time.
