Saturday’s Horse Racing Tips: Ascot, Haydock, January 18th
Today’s Racing Tips – January 18th
Saturday’s ITV cameras focus in on a cracking card at Ascot, as the popular Magic Millions series continues, and a huge crowd is assured on the soft ground for some very competitive jumping. There is also cracking action from Haydock, where the Peter Marsh Chase is very much the highlight.

Today’s Daily Nap
BAD
Ascot 2.15 (UK time)
Ben Pauling’s frustrating but talented chaser has been very expensive for punters to follow so far, with a career record under Rules of just one win from 14 career starts. He is a strong travelling weak finisher, who has run with credit in three starts over fences so far, and is worth another chance with this course and distance expected to suit ideally under regular rider Ben Jones.
Odds: 8.00
Today’s Value Angle
DEDICATED HERO
Haydock 1.55 (UK time)
Sandy Thomson’s dual bumper winner impressed when getting off the mark over hurdles at the second attempt at Kelso last month (revelling in the testing ground/powering clear on the long run-in), and might just be underestimated in the market now stepping up in class to Grade 2 company at Haydock on Saturday.
Odds: 7.00
ITV Racing Tips – Saturday January 18th
Time (UK) | Track | Horse | Analysis |
---|---|---|---|
1:40 | Ascot | KARGESSE | Willie Mullins mare has always been held in the highest regard at home, and she looks to have been found a terrific opening coming over to Ascot for this valuable Saturday prize. |
1:55 | Haydock | DEDICATED HERO | Sandy Thomson’s dual bumper winner impressed when getting off the mark over hurdles at the second attempt at Kelso last month (revelling in the testing ground/powering clear on the long run-in), and might just be underestimated in the market now stepping up in class to Grade 2 company at Haydock on Saturday. |
2:15 | Ascot | BAD | Ben Pauling’s frustrating but talented chaser has been very expensive for punters to follow so far, with a career record under Rules of just one win from 14 career starts. He is a strong travelling weak finisher, who has run with credit in three starts over fences so far, and is worth another chance with this course and distance expected to suit ideally under regular rider Ben Jones. |
2:30 | Haydock | TRELAWNE | Kim Bailey’s lightly raced 9-y-o has won 2 of his 7 career starts over fences so far, and showed a liking for these fences with a gutsy victory in November over 2m5f. He revels in the mud, and this step up in trip to 3m1f should suit under Tom Belamy (with the ground likely to be desperate and this race usually turning into a proper slog up the Haydock straight). |
2:50 | Ascot | ASTON MARTINI | Nicky Henderson’s handicapper looked one to follow on her Bangor reappearance, and can put a lesser effort at Newbury behind her with ground conditions to suit. A suitably strong gallop looks on the cards, and Freddie Gingell will be looking to swoop late on the filly. |
3:05 | Haydock | PUNTA DEL ESTE | Dan Skelton’s stayer has shaped well in defeat on both runs this winter including at this track, and he showed deep conditions suited ideally when winning in Scotland last season. He was negatively ridden and in need of the run in December, and should be a lot fitter here under a more positive Harry Skelton. |
3:25 | Ascot | JONBON | Nicky Henderson’s prolific performer has now won a remarkable 11 of his 13 career starts over fences, and should now be peaking after two workmanlike wins at short prices so far this winter. |
