It already feels like the calm before the Cheltenham storm, as we count down the days to the greatest racing festival of the year...sshh don't tell Royal Ascot we said that.

Here's a quick run through of the our top fancies for Monday's racing at Southwell. You can follow all the action in our live centre.

13:00 Southwell - Sam Barton

13:35 Southwell - Bebraveforglory

14:10 Southwell- Activial

14:45 Southwell - Geometrical

15:20 Southwell - Kyntara

15:55 Southwell - Farmer's Gamble
16:30 Southwell - Tarseem

13:35 Southwell - Bebraveforglory

Massini Man has finished second on both of his starts this year, including at this track on his penultimate run, and should make his presence felt once again in the Call Star Sports On 08000 521 321 Handicap Chase.
However, he may struggle to contain Bebraveforglory, who switches to the larger obstacles after scoring over hurdles at Hereford on his stable debut last month.
Clear On Top tackles fences for the first time and is the pick of the remainder.

14:45 Southwell - Geometrical

Geometrical can follow up on his successful debut for Toby Lawes by taking the starsports.bet Novices' Hurdle.

Bred and previously trained by Jim Bolger, Geometrical had been placed at both Group Two and Listed level in Ireland but had found wins hard to come by, triumphing just twice before being sold for 30,000 guineas last autumn.
Geometrical offered an immediate return though when winning on his first try over hurdles at Doncaster, travelling beautifully before coming home two lengths clear, despite appear to perhaps a idle a little at the finish.
This looks a nice next step to bigger things.

15:20 Southwell - Kyntara

Kyntara has made the frame in all three of his starts over hurdles and the former bumper winner has been found an ideal opportunity to get off the mark this afternoon in Graham Sharpe's New Prostrate Cancer Book Maiden Hurdle.
That said, Benign Dictator could give him plenty to think about having been beaten just a short head on his hurdling debut, while Perryville also merits a place on the shortlist.
