Carbine Harvester – Caution Advised
Carbine Harvester is going for a hat-trick in the 1.58 at Lingfield on Thursday carrying a 6lb penalty but is 4lb well in having been put up 10lb from Friday by the handicapper following his last victory at Southwell.

Rebecca to land a Festival Hat Trick
Rebecca Curtis knows exactly what it takes to taste success at the Cheltenham Festival, with a near 10% strike rate from 57 runners.
