Nap of the day generic

There are three meetings taking place in Britain on Tuesday, as afternoon jumps action comes from Market Rasen and Newbury, before they race on the Tapeta at Wolverhampton under the lights in the evening.

At Market Rasen they have seven races from 13:30 through until 16:47, and Tuesday's Nap of the Day will be looking to avenge a last-time-out defeat under Nico de Boinville.

14:00 Market Rasen – Khrisma @ 11/10

It's been a good spell for Nico de Boinville, who heads for Market Rasen on Tuesday boasting a 28 per cent strike-rate after partnering seven winners from his last 25 rides.

Amongst those, of course, was Jonbon in Saturday's Ascot Chase, as the popular star landed the 12th Grade 1 win of his career when fending off course specialist Pic D'orhy.

That win likely cements a crack at the Ryanair Chase in Cheltenham next month for Jonbon in his quest to finally land a Festival win in the Cotswolds.

De Boinville will be donning the JP McManus silks once more at Market Rasen when he gets the leg up on KHRISMA in the Watch On Racing TV EBF Mares' 'National Hunt' Novices' Hurdle.

The Nicky Henderson-trained six-year-old was beaten by the re-opposing Watamu at Huntingdon (2m, good to soft) in December in a race that likely saw her rider chalked off some punters' Christmas cards lists.

Khrisma appeared to be travelling better than anything into the home straight in that contest and De Boinville bided his time before seeking to go past front-running Shotgun Shirley.

They didn't quite get the final jump right and Watamu stole up the inside to hit the front as Khrisma rallied only to go down a short head.

A more forceful ride this time should see that form turned around, with the winner also 7lb worse off now.

A bigger danger could be Alan King's Charisma Cat, who has figures of 221 over hurdles having scored at Chepstow three weeks ago.

However, Khrisma's profile over hurdles remains progressive despite that December disappointment and the dual French bumper winner can add to her November success at Uttoxeter now.
