Todays Racing Tip – EIRENE
Time & Track – 3.45 Ascot (02/05)
Best Odds – 7/1 @ Bet365
Stake – 1pt win
Analysis – This filly won on second start in a Doncaster Novice event before taking on some decent opposition. She was beaten a half-length in a Group 3 by Anna Nerium who won a Listed race at Newmarket recently and is entered in this weekend’s 1000 Guineas before coming up short in Group 1 company. Her reappearance was very encouraging beaten three-lengths in this grade over a furlong further on quicker ground. Her two career wins have come on soft ground so the forecast rain will be very much in her favour and she’s the only one in the field to have won on soft or worse and being the only filly in the field she’s receiving 3lb from her rivals.
Result – Lost
Todays Racing Tip – SHREWD APPROACH
Time & Track – 5.35 Brighton
Best Odds – 7/2 @ Bet365
Stake – 3pt win
Analysis – Has won 2/6 in the UK both on a softer surface so the forecast rain on top of the already softish going will play to her strengths. Both those wins were over this seven-furlong trip and excuses can be made for first run back after a break with that run coming over a mile on the all-weather (two runs on synthetics have been modest). Now back on turf and dropped in trip she should go well especially with the addition of first-time cheekpieces which could eke out more improvement from a 4lb higher mark on fourth handicap start.

Todays Racing Tip – POET’S PRINCESS
Time & Track – 6.20 Bath
Best Odds – 7/2 @ Betfair
Stake – 2pt win
Analysis – Has only won once (a novice on good to soft) but continues to drop down the ratings having not been disgraced against better opposition. Her standout run last season was when beaten in a Class 2 by a head from a 9lb higher mark and her return to action saw her run well for a while until fading into fifth having led early over six furlongs. She showed nice early speed and has now been dropped into Class 5 company so if re-producing the form of that run last year she’ll take all the beating.
Result – Lost
