Southwell features an eight-race card on Tuesday, where both Newsboy's Nap and next best feature

SCOTT DIXON landed a gamble with ROSE KING (5.30) at Southwell 16 days ago and can be expected to go in again at the same course in the Huge Daily Boosts Only At BetUK Restricted Novice Stakes.

The three-year-old was backed from 28-1 down to 15-2 when winning on his debut by half a length over six furlongs, with the second, Just A Spark, winning next time out at Kempton last week.

Front-running tactics are the preferred option, and while this race is a stronger contest, the drop to the minimum trip should suit the son of Tasleet.

An hour later RAMENSKY (6.30) is hard to oppose in the talkSPORT Powered By Fans Handicap over 1m 3f.

The three-year-old scored handsomely by three and three-quarter lengths on his first run this term at Wolverhampton, with plenty left in the tank, responding well to wearing blinkers for the first time.

That was just his fourth start – and his first since October – and William Haggas now enters the Cracksman gelding into the handicap sphere. With the added bonus of Cieren Fallon in the saddle, he will take all the beating.
