AYIKO split a talented pair trained by Willie Mullins when finishing second over 2m7f at Fairyhouse last month and a repeat of that form may well be good enough to see him go one better here. That said, Jo Coko displayed plenty of promise when also filling the runner-up spot on his Rules debut and he could give the selection plenty to think about.

TODAY’S JOCKEY TO WATCH - BRIAN HUGHES
Hughes has been champion jump-jockey 3 times in 2019/20 2021/22 and 2022/23 and he continues to ride the majority of runners from the Donald McCain stable as well as picking up rides from countless other yards on a regular basis. The jockey was in action at Fakenham on Sunday (3 rides) before coming on to Ayr’s extra fixture yesterday for another 4 and he’s booked on 4 more horses this afternoon, including his recent course and distance winner Hashtag Boum in the 4-runner 3.05 Hughes’ winners total as champion in 2022 was 204 a total which meant he became only the 4th jump jockey to top 200 winners in a season after Peter Scudamore, AP McCoy and Richard Johnson.

TODAY’S TRAINER TO WATCH - RUTH JEFFERSON
Ruth hasn’t had many runners at Ayr since taking over the licence from her late father Malcolm in 2018 but her strike-rate here has been excellent and she’s back today with recent course and distance winner Hashtag Boum in the 3.05 with the yard’s long-term ally Brian Hughes in the saddle. The presence of Gordon Elliott’s 146-rated Duffle Coat means the Jefferson runner is 2lbs out of the handicap here but he won with some authority from a couple of well-regarded types the last day and Elliott’s top-weight has plenty to prove. Older racegoers may remember Malcolm Jefferson’s Dato Star which won his bumper debut here at Ayr in 1995 and went on to win the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham 2 months later
25% SUCCESS RATE AT AYR OVER THE LAST 5 YEARS 2 WINS FROM 8 RUNNERS
Tommy’s Oscar and Danny McMenamin winning the Scotty Brand Handicap Chase last year
CORAL SCOTTISH GRAND NATIONAL FESTIVAL PREVIEW
Scotty Brand Handicap Chase
This fast and furious 2 miles handicap chase has become an integral part of the 2-day Coral Scottish Grand National Festival and last year’s renewal was won by Ann Hamilton’s Tommy’s Oscar under Danny McMenamin, with Lucinda Russell’s grey Traprain Law finishing a gallant second and the Paul Nicholls’ trained Sans Bruit finishing third under Bryony Frost.
The former Champion Conditional jockey McMenamin was winning the race for the second year in a row after partnering Peter Niven’s Malystic to success in 2023 and the race was most notably won, THREE years apart, by the Nicky Henderson trained Theinval in 2018 and 2021. Theinval was rated 144 when he won the race as an 8-year-old under Jerry McGrath for his first success but he was down to 136 when he scored under Nico de Boinville in 2021 and it’s interesting to note that, away from Ayr, he only ever won at Uttoxeter and Plumpton in 32 starts over fences.
Azzuri won the race for the Skeltons in 2019 and Rebecca Menzies saddled her popular chaser Return Ticket to score a notable success under Sean Quinlan in 2022.

4TH TIME
RACE RESULT DISTANCES 1ST
Most of these have questions to answer, but not CHAPEL GREEN following his impressive success over 2m at Musselburgh in November. A 6lb rise for that win appears to be fair and the eight-yearold tops the shortlist. The main threat is likely to be Cold Sobar, who was not disgraced on his return from a lengthy break at Carlisle last month. Fia Fuinidh failed to fire last time but is a player based on his previous form.

CHASINGOUTTHEBLUES got up in the nick of time over an extended 2m3f at Wetherby on Boxing Day, and there are plenty of reasons to be hopeful that he can follow up. The unexposed six-year-old was making his handicap debut that day and although a subsequent 5lb rise might seem harsh, he can progress further now upped significantly in trip. Gaillimh A Stor was desperately unlucky when narrowly denied over C&D from 3lb lower earlier this month and he merits respect, along with Lady In The Park. totewin: Chasingouttheblues

TIMMY TUESDAY was second to a potentially smart Willie Mullins-trained improver at Limerick last month and, although well held by that rival, it was still an encouraging enough effort to suggest he can take the lead role here. I Wish You, who won a novices’ hurdle at Carlisle on his penultimate start, is weighted to have an impact on just his second start in a handicap. Ruby Island is a previous course winner who looks worth another try over this sort of trip.

CABALLO DE GUERRA was a promising third on debut in a similar event at Wetherby last month and, given he was the market leader on that occasion, similar betting support for the four-year-old would be highly tempting now he has racecourse experience under his belt. The selection’s stable companions, Triple Crown Ted and Kanitamay, bolster a potentially strong hand for Lucinda Russell. However, They’re Chancers, who cost 70,000 euros as a three-year-old, and the well-bred Count Adhemar tick the right boxes on paper and rate the most intriguing of the debutants.
