Friday's racing bulletin

The Five Live selection is Demarco in the 1310 at Fontwell (all times GMT).

There are three meetings on Friday at Fontwell, Catterick and Wolverhampton.

The ground is good with good-to-soft places.

Trainer Nicky Henderson has not enjoyed the best of seasons but his horses finally seem to be coming good.

Demarco in the 1310 looked smart when he won first time out at Ludlow and was not disgraced when upped in class.

The gelding makes his belated hurdling debut on Friday and the vibes are good.

Mick Fitzgerald rides and conditions look ideal.

Good to soft with good places is the description of the ground at Catterick where 87 horses line up for the seven-race card.

Deep Water in the 1530 may have top weight but still looks capable of taking this tricky race.

The gelding won this corresponding race last year and will be favourite to do the same again.

Following 1mm of rain, the Wolverhampton Polytrack is still standard.

Chorus in the 1520 is not the most reliable character but has been running well lately and would only have to repeat his last effort to be in the shake up.
