Tomorrow's fare has Flat racing from Newbury, where the reappearance of Frankel will be the star attraction, Newmarket, Thirsk and an evening meeting from Doncaster. On the jumps, Bangor in the afternoon and Uttoxeter, my local track, in the evening.
I am going to Newmarket tomorrow, and my two there are High Jinx (3.55) and Suraj (5.40). High Jinx created the impression that this 1m 6f would suit him a lot more than the fact he was outpaced over 10 furlongs last time. He could still be well handicapped. Suraj was very impressive with a 11 length demolition of a maiden field at Doncaster, and with an entry at Royal Ascot later in the season, looks sure to be a very progressive three year old this year, and as long as the track doesn't cause any issues, then she looks a bit of value at 4/1 at the time of writing.
Next is Newbury, a star studded card headed by Frankel, who won't be beaten in the Lockinge Stakes, but represents no value for this purpose. The two there are Ibicenco in the 2.00 and Hajras in the 3.05. Ibicenco is the leader on official ratings and represents the in-form duo of Fallon and Cumani. The other selection, Hajras, is a horse to follow. He is running in the London Gold Cup tomorrow and was impressive on ground he clearly didn't like at Ripon last time, getting up close home, is still unexposed and is fast becoming one of my favourite horses.
Thirsk is the only other afternoon flat meeting, and my two are Arctic Feeling in the 4.05 and Calico Cat 4.40. Arctic Feeling has showed improved form this season and represents the in form Richard Fahey team, on a track that should suit his fast early pace well, looks a good each way play. Calico Cat could not have created a better impression when finishing 3rd in a Listed race on debut, and even carrying extra weight as an older horse in a 3yo+ maiden, could easily score in an uncompetitive contest.
Doncaster race tomorrow night on the Flat, and I have two good each way shouts. Landesherr in the 6.10 is the first of them, showing improved form when a good second at Wolverhampton last time and has good claims here. Head Space in the 8.20 is the other selection, showing improved form for his new yard, with a return to 6 furlongs, looks overpriced at 16/1.
Over the obstacles at Bangor, a good card to entertain the usual strong crowd in North Wales. I like Golden Call who makes his chase debut in the beginners chase at 3.10. He is 2-2 at Bangor too, and Donald McCain barely goes a Bangor meeting without a winner. What A Laugh is the banker in the closing hunter chase, a really impressive winner there last time and really should win.
Uttoxeter finish the day with a competitive card, and I like Smalib Monterg in the 6.25 and Double Fortune in the 7.30. Smalib Monterg showed a lot of promise at Wincanton on British debut and stable debut, a yard who love a gamble and looks a good each way bet. Double Fortune makes its debut for Anthony Honeyball, a yard I really admire, and is pitched into a handicap first time, and a rise in trip should bring about the improvement required to win this.
Good Luck
