Bearish 4/7: Hamilton 14:35 Looks the Banker of the Day
All eyes will be on the 14:35 at Hamilton where the E A L Dunlop-trained Bearish, priced at 4/7, is the standout pick of the day. This high-confidence (92%) selection benefits from the booking of Jason Hart and a race profile tailor-made for success. A winner over today's distance of 1m 1f 35y last month on similarly lively ground, Bearish boasts the requisite turn-of-foot to dominate this seven-runner contest. Given his speed figures, sectionals, and a +18% EV rating, it would be a surprise to see him beaten. Expect short-priced backers to dive in.
For those keen on multiple bets, Bearish is a natural choice for today's accumulator tips.
Supreme Yeats 5/6: Newton Abbot 17:30 Looks Unstoppable
Dan Skelton sends Supreme Yeats to Newton Abbot for the 17:30, a marathon 3m 2f 105y handicap chase. Fresh from a commanding performance at Warwick over a furlong shorter, this son of Yeats is tipped to thrive under the guidance of Harry Skelton. The going—good, with firm patches—is expected to suit his galloping style, and at 5/6, he looks a solid wager.
With confidence running high at 87% and a field of just six runners, Supreme Yeats can stamp his authority here. This contest, analysed in full on our Newton Abbot racecard, could be an ideal place for backers to lock in their profits.
Off The Jury 6/5: Cartmel 20:08 to Strike Again Over Fences
The 20:08 handicap chase at Cartmel sees Off The Jury lining up as the 6/5 favourite. Trained by Mickey Bowen and ridden by James Bowen, this gelding has been improving with every run over fences. His most recent performance at Ffos Las saw him stay on powerfully, which bodes well for today's 2m 5f 34y trip on good ground. With an 83% confidence rating, he could well cap off the evening as a winning bet. Interested punters can monitor fast results to confirm if he's delivered on the promise.
Value Bets: Amantha 80/1 and Darvel 40/1 Worth Small Plays
For punters seeking bigger prices, Beverley's 14:45 offers a speculative but enticing selection in the form of Amantha. Priced at a whopping 80/1, this filly is lightly raced and showed some improvement last time. While her confidence rating of 46% reflects her outsider status, a small each-way play in this 12-runner handicap could prove lucrative if she finds further improvement.
Over at Kempton, the 17:25 sees a massive 14-runner field tackle a tricky mile handicap. Amidst the hustle, Darvel, at 40/1, catches the eye. Jockey Charlie Tucker takes a useful 5lb off, and past form on all-weather surfaces suggests he is not without a chance. Check out all each-way selections for more longshot suggestions.
