Tipster Smallfieldpunting of the Tipstrr platform has identified Ithra as the chief threat to odds on favourite Mexicali Rose at Chepstow on Monday.
1525 Days Recruitment Supports Noahs Retreat Fillies Restricted Novice Stakes
From Beyond's withdrawal leaves us with a smaller field of six runners for the 15:25 Novice Stakes at Chepstow, but Planet Sport Bet is still offering two places.
Mexicali Rose, saddled by Ralph Beckett and ridden by Hector Crouch, is a strong odds-on favourite to get off the mark after consistently peppering the frame.
Her last outing saw her finish third at Lingfield, building on a pair of second-place finishes at Leicester and Nottingham earlier in the year.

Concon Candy built on a debut third place with another placed effort and looks as if she could be open to improvement in just her third start.
Top of the Class hasn't lit up the track in any of her seven starts but should benefit from her run at Nottingham after a four-month break.
Ithra failed to make the step up to handicap company, beaten by six lengths in a small field on soft ground. However, the drop back down to Novice company could help.
That run came after an extended break which will have been beneficial ahead of this more manageable outing and Smallfieldpunting thinks Ithra ranks as the chief threat.
Suggested bet:
Ithra each-way in the 15:25 at Chepstow
