GREEN SKY looked set to go close before making a bad mistake at the second-last hurdle in a C&D handicap in early November. The five-year-old certainly performed better than the fourth-placed effort suggests on that occasion and a reproduction of her subsequent third in a 21-runner maiden hurdle at Navan may prove good enough in today's contest. Jet To Vegas has filled the runner-up berth on his last three appearances and he's feared most, ahead of penalised winner Admiral Stewart.Prediction : 1st Green Sky 2nd Jet To Vegas 3rd Admiral Stewart
13:50 Ayr
Having ended his last campaign with a ready victory over fences at Perth in May, Cowboy Cooper must enter calculations reverting to hurdles off what looks a workable mark. Market support for Donald Whillans' charge on his return to action must be noted, but it may be worth taking a punt on handicap debutant HELSGETAWAY. Although the son of Getaway will need to jump with more fluency than when fifth at Hexham last month, an official rating of 100 could prove on the lenient side. Santa Clarita is also noted.Prediction : 1st Helsgetaway 2nd Cowboy Cooper 3rd Santa Clarita
14:20 Ayr
Primoz and Western Fold arrive on the back of falls, but they both likely have better days ahead in this discipline and neither can be dismissed. Regardless, HOMBRE DE GUERRA built on his promising chase bow behind the smart Caldwell Potter at Carlisle when scoring with ease over this track and trip 18 days ago. Although the handicapper has reacted with a 10lb hike in the ratings, Nick Alexander's charge rates as the most solid proposition and a brace may be on the cards.Prediction : 1st Hombre De Guerra 2nd Primoz 3rd Western Fold
14:52 Ayr
Nab Wood had excuses when finishing sixth in his hat-trick bid over an extended 2m6f at Kelso last month and it would be no surprise if he were able to make his presence felt now eased in trip off an unchanged mark. That said, he is tentatively taken on with FOSTER'SISLAND. Micky Hammond's charge was in with a winning chance at the final flight before fading into fourth on the run-in over an extended 2m5f at Wetherby on Boxing day and, coming back a furlong in distance off 1lb lower, this may be the day to catch him. Golden Maverick is another for the shortlist.Prediction : 1st Fostersisland 2nd Nab Wood 3rd Golden Maverick
15:27 Ayr
The lightly-raced De Legislator retains plenty of potential despite a low-key effort in a Grade 2 over an extended 3m at Haydock when last seen in February and, for a yard whose inmates can often improve for a fence, he commands respect on his chasing debut. That said, he may have to play second fiddle to ILIKEDWAYURTHINKIN. Following a C&D victory, Ben Haslam's charge readily brought up a double over 3m5f at Newcastle in November and the suspicion is that an 8lb rise may not be enough to anchor this progressive chaser. Irish raider Undeniable Alibi is also a key player.Prediction : 1st Ilikedwayurthinkin 2nd De Legislator 3rd Undeniable Alibi
16:02 Ayr
This looks a trappy affair on paper so only a tentative vote goes to the unexposed MIX DE GRIS. Lucinda Russell's charge lost little in defeat when finishing runner-up in a first-time hood (retained) over 2m at Wetherby on his penultimate start and, making his handicap debut for his in-form stable, he looks the one to be with. Tan Law hasn't cut much ice in his qualifying runs but better can be expected now pitched into handicap company. Red Ned is also noted. Prediction : 1st Mix De Gris 2nd Tan Law 3rd Red Ned
