Today’s Daily Nap

ALYANAABI

York 1.50 (UK time)

Owen Burrows useful performer has been building up to peak fitness in three starts so far this season, and has optimum conditions to return to winning form at York on Saturday under Jim Crowley. He has won 2 of his 7 career starts so far, and his latest effort at Newbury has been well advertised by the runner-up Al Aasy winning twice subsequently.

Today’s Value Angle

RELENTLESS VOYAGER

York 3.35 (UK time)

Andrew Balding continues in terrific form with 7 winners in the last fortnight, and his consistent stayer comes into this prestigious handicap at the top of his game after an excellent run at Glorious Goodwood behind the useful Al Aasy at Group 3 level. He shaped with immense promise over this course and distance previously under a negative ride from off the pace, and looks on a fair mark now back into handicap company under Oisin Murphy.

Odds: 17.00

ITV Racing Tips – Saturday August 24th

Time (UK)	Track	Horse	Analysis
1:50	York	ALYANAABI	Owen Burrows useful performer has been building up to peak fitness in three starts so far this season, and has optimum conditions to return to winning form at York on Saturday under Jim Crowley. He has won 2 of his 7 career starts so far, and his latest effort at Newbury has been well advertised by the runner-up Al Aasy winning twice subsequently.
2:05	Goodwood	FORMAL	Sir Michael Stoute would not usually be known for having his horses primed first time up, and there should be plenty of natural improvement to come from this scopey filly after she impressed on her debut at Newbury in July.
2:25	York	TOO BOSSY FOR US	Kevin Phillapart de Foy is very much a young trainer to follow over the next few years, and his progressive stayer remains open to plenty more improvement granted a thorough test of stamina over this 1m6f trip.
2:40	Goodwood	LEAD ARTIST	John and Thady Gosden’s improving performer blitzed the field from the front over this course and distance last month, and experience of this uniquely undulating track is always a very big positive especially in these tactical small fields.
3:00	York	LAKE FOREST	William Haggas usually lines up a few for this meeting, and his useful performer has run two cracking races in defeat this summer. Tom Marquand is booked with the yard in top form, and he will be looking to swoop late on fast ground that suits.
3:35	York	RELENTLESS VOYAGER	Andrew Balding continues in terrific form with 7 winners in the last fortnight, and his consistent stayer comes into this prestigious handicap at the top of his game after an excellent run at Glorious Goodwood behind the useful Al Aasy at Group 3 level. He shaped with immense promise over this course and distance previously under a negative ride from off the pace, and looks on a fair mark now back into handicap company under Oisin Murphy.
4:10	York	BILLYJOH	Mick Appleby’s consistent sprinter has been knocking loudly on the door all summer, and can swoop late here in a race typically packed with plenty of early speedballs. The booking of the excellent Rossa Ryan increases confidence, and he will be looking to weave his way through late if the gaps appear.
