Rayvin Black has the Bathwick Tyres Kingwell Hurdle at Wincanton on February 20 as his next target.

Winner of a valuable handicap at Sandown in early January, he has since chased home The New One at Haydock and Connetable at Sandown on Saturday, picking up good prize-money in the process.

Trainer Oliver Sherwood decided against a run in the valuable Betfair Hurdle at Newbury on Saturday and will instead head to Wincanton for the Grade Two over two miles.

Sherwood said of Rayvin Black's Sandown performance: "Giving 10lb to the winner, I think he's run exactly to his mark and ran another cracker - he's gone out with his heart on his sleeve.

"We took him out of the Betfair, and the Kingwell at Wincanton is likely to be next, where we'll take on My Tent Or Yours."
