In contrast to the lead-up to the 2000 Guineas being raced on Saturday, the ante-post betting market for the 1000 Guineas has lacked a dominant figure. In fact, current favourite Qabala was only promoted into 3/1 market leader off-the-back of her taking performance a fortnight ago at Newmarket. Qabala has…

2,000 Guineas selection: Madhmoon (7/1)
This weekend sees Classic action return to Britain as Newmarket hosts the 1,000 and 2,000 Guineas Stakes, on Saturday and Sunday respectively, over the Rowley Mile. The ante-post market for the 2,000 Guineas has received several blows in recent months as favourites Too Darn Hot, Calyx and Quorto have all…
1pt win Defi Du Seuil @2/1, 18:40 Punchestown, Thursday
Obvious value has been few and far between during Punchestown this week, particularly in the Graded races where the form horses have dominated the markets and generally run well. Thursday’s card has an excellent Grade 1 with our favourite DEFI DU SEUIL running – and, amazingly, he’s not favourite. That’s…
Sandown Saturday tips: Humble Hero (6/1), Birds Of Prey (10/1), Black Corton (3/1) and On The Blind Side (100/30)
William Hill offer six places for each-way punters in Sandown’s season finale card opener, a handicap hurdle for novices that we won a few years ago with Wolf Of Windlesham. Paul Nicholls trains the favourite Getaway Trump, victorious at Ayr recently, but I like his second string BIRDS OF PREY…
Sandown Friday tips: Technician (5/1) and Regal Reality (8/1)
Sandown hosts flat racing today with three Group races on the card, before switching back to the jumps tomorrow for the British season finale. I had my eye on Knight To Behold upsetting Crystal Ocean in the 2.25, but seemingly everyone has as he’s halved in price and no longer…
1pt win Mackaar @11/1, 14:45 Epsom, Wednesday
Epsom hosts its Derby Trial at 2.45 today, attracting seven runners in what looks a wide-open heat. Cape Of Good Hope, a full brother to the brilliant Highland Reel as well as Royal Ascot winner Idaho, is the 7/4 favourite and there to be shot at on the back of…
2019 Irish Grand National Tips: 1pt each-way Snugsborough Benny @14/1, 1pt each-way C'est Jersey @20/1, 17:00 Fairyhouse, Monday
The Irish Grand National finishes off the usual spring series of marathon-staying steeplechases for another year. Fairyhouse is the host on Easter Monday and we have two selections for the Irish showpiece. As a general rule, it has paid to stick with novice or second-season chasers in recent years and…
1pt win Set Piece @14/1, 1pt win Jackstar @25/1, 15:35 Newmarket, Wednesday
Spring is in the air and flat racing is back at Newmarket for the Craven meeting, with the feature Craven Stakes one of the main domestic trials for the 2,000 Guineas over the same course and distance in May. Last year’s spoils went to a 9l winner in Masar, who…
2019 Scottish Grand National Tips: 1pt each-way Big River @11/1, 1pt each-way Impulsive Star @18/1, 15:35 Ayr, Saturday
The Scots follow up with their own edition of the Grand National this weekend. Not quite the same test as the Aintree event, nor the Tiger Roll-level of talent on show. The Scottish Grand National’s a more conventional handicapping race that is usually run on fast ground conditions. Favourites generally…
Scottish Grand National undercard tips: Redicean (9/1) and Big Time Dancer (10/1)
In the Scottish Champion Hurdle I’ve got a lot of time for the smart novice Mister Fisher, but at 11/2 I can’t say he’s much of a price and, in contrast, the 9/1 about REDICEAN is too good to ignore. As a juvenile he looked electric when running away with…
