The Punt Acca: Harry Wilson looks to follow up Sunday’s 10-3 winner with three tips from Lingfield and Taunton on Thursday

Three horses to be included in a hat-trick on Thursday. . .


Twp History (12:35 p.m. Lingfield)

I didn’t achieve much in the first few races over hurdles, but improved considerably to move on to the stay trip, losing just a neck over course and distance in February to a rival who is now rated at 32 pounds heavier. He followed this with a comfortable victory over 3m2f on heavy ground at Fontwell before producing another career best by chasing a subsequent winner at Uttoxeter in May. He is expected to strip for his reappearance after an inadequate trip to Uttoxeter last month and has conditions suitable.

In the air (1.25 Tauntons)

Made an immediate impact after moving to Nicky Henderson’s yard, landing a Southwell handicap by five and a half lengths last month before following up at Exeter a week later. He was sent off favorite for a Cheltenham handicap on his last visit and was far from disgraced by finishing sixth, as if unsuited to the emphasis on endurance. This slightly shorter journey on a much more advanced circuit should suit him and he will be able to resume his progress by going back down to class.

A work in progress (1.45 Lingfield)

Was beaten on his two points and first four starts over hurdles, but proved a different proposition on a longer trip, keeping well on course to land a 2m5½f handicap at Fontwell in May. He was not seen again until last month but wasted no time in opening his account at the hurdle, getting the better of a later winner in a handicap race at Stratford. He did it in style that day and is officially 3 pounds, so there’s every chance he’ll follow up.
