MISS Ellie, who is currently enjoying a purple patch, can complete a three-timer in the E.B.F./Crandon Park Stud Mares' Only 'National Hunt' Novices' Hurdle (Qualifier) at Wetherby tomorrow.

Since being bought for a mere 4,500 guineas out of Sally Hall's stable at Doncaster November Sales, the Sue Bradburne-trained mare has won both her starts.

This will be first run outside Scotland for her new stable as both her wins have come at Musselburgh, the latest four weeks ago when she won a 13-runner handicap by eight lengths from Red Rampage.

Chergan also won at the same two Musselburgh meetings last month for theBradburne team and will once again be sharing the same horsebox.

And on the evidence of his latest success by 10 lengths from Sunuvugun, the improving eight-year-old will be hard to beat in the day's showcase Handicap, the Tote On Racing Channel Chase.

If Tell The Troops can show minimum improvement on his jumping compared to his recent Leicester appearance when finishing fourth to Indian Scout in January then he can land the opening Sponsorship Lunch Novices' Hurdle.

Henry Daly's charge landed a Hereford bumper in December and can get off the mark over timber tomorrow.

At Lingfield, the front running Innkeeper can benefit from a drop in class and distance and land the seven furlongs Bet Tax Free Today With Bet Direct Claiming Stakes.

While Sir Mark Prescott's can benefit from his recent fourth to land theopening Free Information At NewmarketConnections.com Maiden Stakes.
