Tom Ryan has a knack of picking up feature race winners from rides Steve Pateman rejects and it happened again at Sandown, twice.

Via Savoia and Gotta Take Care are usually therabouts but Darren Weir believes they will have to be at their best to win their respective jumps features.

Champion jumps jockey Steve Pateman will get another crack at a feature double on Palmero and Fareer when he rides the two promising jumpers this Saturday at Sandown.

Gavin Bedggood is confident his Australian Steeplechase mount Al Karam can again beat Fareer after defeating him fair and square in the Great Southern.

Black And Bent will not race again this year after the champion jumper was found to have sustained a tendon injury.
