We're tipping Scots Poet in the 18:15 at Hexham — a Hurdle race with 11 runners on Good going.

A look at the form — 34473331- — reveals winning form that is hard to ignore.

Ewan Whillans has been in fine form and teams up with Conor O'Farrell, a combination that demands respect.

These conditions — Good ground over — look tailor-made for the selection.

Key angle: Won last time out.

An official mark of 90 looks workable in this grade.

For each-way purposes, Gemini Man merits consideration as a place alternative.
