The Jumps season explodes into life this weekend with the return of racing at both Cheltenham and Aintree. We bring you complete coverage of Cheltenham's Showcase Meeting on Friday and Saturday before heading north for Aintree's first fixture of the season on Sunday.
 
Mark Your Card previews Friday afternoon's racing from Cheltenham and Newbury. Cheltenham's squareintheair.com Novices Chase looks a race not to be missed with the likes of Al Dancer and Getaway Trump taking on the bigger obstacles for the first time. You can then enjoy The Friday Club alongside action from Dundalk on Friday evening.

The Full SP previews Saturday's racing from noon before we head back to Cheltenham and Newbury and also enjoy racing from Kelso, Galway, Leopardstown and Chelmsford City. There are plenty of potentially smart novices on show at Cheltenham including Olly Murphy's The Butcher Said and Gordon Elliott's Braid Blue.
 
Luck On Sunday adds some debate on the week's hot topics on Sunday morning before a further four meetings, including Aintree, Wexford, Wincanton and Galway. Aintree's Virgin Bet Monet's Garden Old Roan Chase sees the season return of both Frodon and Kalashnikov, who both ended last season in winning form.
