Todays Racing Tip – DESERT ICON
Time & Track – 2.25 Goodwood (31/07)
Best Odds – 7/1 @ Bet365
Stake – 1pt win
Analysis – A winner on second career start when scoring over Pontefract’s stiff 1m2f and doubled his career tally when winning on handicap debut at Salisbury, stepped up to this 1m4f trip for the first time and with him unexposed in this sphere as well as the trip this son of Sea The Stars is open to any amount of improvement despite the 7lb hike in the weights. The form of his recent success has been given a couple of boosts since and he should be competitive in an open looking contest – one who could go well also is Mind The Crack for Mark Johnston, who has a good record in this race.
Result – Lost
Todays Racing Tip – MR COCO BEAN
Time & Track – 3.55 Redcar (31/07)
Best Odds – 11/2 @ William Hill
Stake – 1pt win
Analysis – This five-year old has been in fantastic form this calendar year, since scoring in January on the synthetics he’s won twice over this C&D as well as over the extended 1m2f on penultimate start at haydock. The gelding was only ninth in his hat-trick bid but was only beaten four-lengths in a 0-85 at York almost three-weeks ago and the drop back into calmer waters could see him resume progress – looks overpriced if running to the same level as some of those recent outings, especially as there have been subsequent winners coming out of them.
Result – Won +5.5
