ONE o’clock is the start time for the Four Burrow meeting at Trebudannon on Monday where seven races will take place at the course which has one of the best natural grandstands in the country.

A feature on the card is the Cornish National, run over three and a half miles and a qualifier for the Touareg Men’s Open Final at Towcester in May.

Stamina will be required among the 12 entries who have already done their fair share of winning this season. They include Doof, a winner at Wadebridge on Saturday, Great Trethew victor Dare To Dream, Dad Says Heazle and Rockwithacaveman who is bidding to make it five out of five this season.

The members’ begins the day’s actiona dn Ross Oliver has two entries – the prolific winner Lets Fly and Wee Fly, placed twice this season.

The maiden has been split and in the first, there will be plenty looking at Oceans who was an eyecatching runner at Buckfastleigh. Present of Flame is another entry who can only improive with experience.

In the second division, Reflector could travel south for trainer Maz Scudamore, and that’s a clue in itself. Lourd Hym is another who may improve. He cantered back to the lorry park at Ideford Arch having dumped his rider, and still came third once the pair were reunited.

Confined winners include Fort of Gold and easy Great Trethew winner Four of a Kind.
