Todays Racing Tip – EARLOFTHECOTSWOLDS
Time & Track – 3.25 Market Rasen (05/02)
Best Odds – 6/1 @ Bet365
Stake – 1pt win
Analysis – Was just held by the re-opposing Seemingly So at this track in a novice hurdle off level weights in November but is 3lb better off with that rival here and he clearly likes the course having won a bumper a couple of runs prior to that. Had to work for victory up at Carlisle over 2m1f when shaping as though the step up in trip would suit. He travelled well into the race at Wincanton (extended 2m5f) against stronger opposition to this before weakening just before the last and this drop back a furlong should suit. Unexposed in handicaps and if on a going day should really be in the mix for the Twiston-Davies yard who have been amongst the winners of late.
Result – Won
Todays Racing Tip – LOCH LINNHE
Time & Track – 4.30 Market Rasen (05/02)
Best Odds – 7/2 @ Bet365
Stake – 1pt win
Analysis – Won from a 6lb lower mark on hurdling debut over two years ago before going close from a pound higher mark than what he’s running off here on next start. Form been up and down since (has included a win over fences from 4lb higher) but has returned from a wind operation in good health, firstly finishing third over track and trip before being beaten just half-a-length at Newcastle a week ago and the handicapper has allowed this seven-year old to run off the same mark of 106. A repeat performance would surely see him involved with the ground not an issue it seems.
Result – Lost
Todays Racing Tip – ETERNAL SUN
Time & Track – 5.45 Newcastle (05/02)
Best Odds – 7/1 @ Bet365
Stake – 1pt win
Analysis – Ended his novice campaign with victory over C&D back in September and added to that success on second outing in handicap company from a 5lb lower mark at Southwell. He ran respectably back at that tack the last day when a close third and the form of that has taken several boosts since with the first, second and fourth all winning. He’s been left on the same mark for this and there’s every chance there’s more to come from this lightly-raced four-year old now dropping in grade and Jason Hart takes over the reigns (20% strike-rate when teaming up with Ivan Furtado.
Result – Lost
