Todays Racing Tip – FLY HOME HARRY
Time & Track – 2.00 Huntingdon (11/01)
Best Odds – 8/1 @ Bet365
Stake – 1pt win
Analysis – I tipped this horse at the start of the month when he was a tailed off fifth at Ludlow but I’m drawn back to him in this as he’s back on the same mark of 105 as when winning this contest 12 months ago and has the assistance of Paul O’Brien, last year’s pilot, back in the saddle claiming 3lb. If the ten-year old is on a going day and gets in a nice jumping rhythm then he’s got a great chance of winning this again and I think this quicker ground will suit better than when it was soft last year but needs to put some recent runs behind him.

Todays Racing Tip – TAKE THE HELM
Time & Track – 2.10 Lingfield (11/01)
Best Odds – 3/1 @ Betfair
Stake – 1pt win
Analysis – Ran his best race to date over C&D back in March when winning in this grade and he’s only 4lb higher here. He followed that up with a decent second at Chelmsford in May and wasn’t seen since until a returning third in a classified stakes over a furlong further here last Saturday. The drop back to his favoured trip (five wins at 33% strike-rate) gives the six-year old solid claims and he’s been given a nice draw in stall 4, should go well under the experienced Liam Keniry.

Todays Racing Tip – OAK VINTAGE
Time & Track – 2.50 Sedgefield (11/01)
Best Odds – 3/1 @ Sky Bet
Stake – 1pt win
Analysis – This nine-year old enjoyed a good 2018 which included five wins with three coming at this course (one over this 2m3f trip). The latest of those wins came from a 7lb lower mark but he’s since changed stables and made an encouraging debut for this new yard when second behind Willie Boy in a slightly better race than this. He should have more to offer now and the return to this C&D is a good move with ground conditions fine.
Result – Lost
