Saturday ITV Racing Tips
Time | Track | Selection | Analysis |
13:30 | WINCANTON | MIDNIGHT CALLISTO | Anthony Honeyball’s mare has been running herself fit this winter, improving last time to finish second at Taunton, and she will relish the emphasis on speed round here. |
13:50 | SANDOWN | GUNSIGHT RIDGE | Olly Murphy’s unexposed young chaser has shaped really well twice over fences this winter, with his latest effort when second at Exeter well franked by the winner going in twice since. |
14:05 | WINCANTON | ANOTHER CRICK | Noel Williams handicapper needed the run when a remote third at Leicester on his seasonal debut last month, and this drop back in trip to two miles should suit ideally dropping down slightly in class. |
14:26 | SANDOWN | CONSITUTION HILL | Nicky Henderson’s ex-pointer made a deeply impressive Rules debut over this course and distance in December, cruising clear from a useful rival in Might I, and he is confidently expected to handle this step up to Grade 1 company under Nico de Boinville. |
14:40 | WINCANTON | EARTH BUSINESS | Colin Tizzard’s unexposed 6-y-o remains open to improvement after just five runs over hurdles, and he will relish this drop back to 2m5f after getting very tired over three miles here last time out. |
15:00 | SANDOWN | DANCING SHADOW | Victor Dartnall’s handicapper is a freegoing frontrunner who jumps well when allowed to dominate, and he has shown in two recent wins (including over this course and distance), that he is primed to strike from this kind of mark. |
15:15 | WINCANTON | KILLER CLOWN | Emma Lavelle’s handicapper has shaped better than the bare result on both runs so far this winter, and he will relish the expected better ground conditions at Wincanton on Saturday. |
15:35 | SANDOWN | HERMES BOY | Jane Williams novice impressed when getting off the mark over hurdles at Exeter last time (form been well franked since by the third Dubrovnik Harry), and he looks let in lightly for this handicap debut. |
