To the East Midlands on Tuesday, March 1 and Evan Williams is after a first himself with Astra Via.

Planet Sport have all the latest information on racing at Leicester including race cards, jockeys and trainers in our Live Race Centre.

Here's a quick reference list for all six of Planet Sport's picks from Leicester on Tuesday, March 1.

Dash Full Of Cash (13.50 Leicester)

Astra Via (14.25 Leicester)

File Illico (15.00 Leicester)

Celma Des Bois (15.35 Leicester)

Pure Vision (16.05 Leicester)

Benefaktor (16.35 Leicester)

If you'd like some more information on Planet Sport's three main picks from Leicester then here you go.

If Dash Full Of Cash hadn't blundered at the last at Kempton, he might have got closer to Ree Okka in defeat, when he finished a six length second.

Lucy Wadham's five-year-old hasn't finished out of the top three in any of his three career runs and is going towards a first victory.

Bryony Frost is a solid booking and Dash Full Of Cash can describe the punters' trip to the bookies after the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre Novices' Handicap Chase.

Evan Williams is a likeable trainer and his Astra Via can match his win at Chepstow that came by a game short head three runs ago.

A second last time out at Sedgefield was no disgrace and the staying on performance bodes well for the step up to two miles and four furlongs.

Adam Wedge gets the leg up with Astra Via looking to star in the Royal Lancers Association Mares' Handicap Chase.

A bijou field can be taken out by Jonjo O'Neill's File Illico in the Royal Air Forces Association Novices' Handicap Chase.

A consistent sort, the seven-year-old Cokoriko gelding won his penultimate start and prevailed bullishly despite jumping errrors.

Jonjo O'Neill Jnr is always a talented jockey and File Illico can take this one for his pop.
