Todays Racing Tip - AMBRE DES MORAIS
Time & Track - 4.30 Newton Abbot (01/10)
Best Odds - 8/1 @ William Hill

Stake - 1pt win

Analysis - This lightly-raced eight-year old has progressed nicely through the handicapping ranks since joining Johnny Farrelly last July when landing a quick-fire treble late last summer (2m-2m3f) all in the hands of Noel Fehily. He was beaten by a neck off a mark of 108 when attempting the four-timer and after a break returned to action at the end of May when losing by a nose off 112. He was second the last day over 2m (the winner has won in a higher grade since) and the step up in trip now to the extended 2m5f looks likely to suit so with untapped potential at this trip he may well be able to return to the winners enclosure with Fehily back on board and add to a previous course win.

Result - Lost

Todays Racing Tip - MAYPOLE
Time & Track - 7.45 Kempton (01/10)
Best Odds - 11/2 @ Unibet

Stake - 2pt win

Analysis - This three-year old has enjoyed a good consistent year so far having won three times (all over this trip) and gone close on a few other occasions. His latest win came over track and trip at the start of last month in an apprentice handicap under Rossa Ryan who takes the ride again here. He was unable to claim his 3lb in that contest but can do so again in this so a 3lb rise for that win is technically cancelled out. His form on the polytrack reads 1-2-4-1 and there’s still room for improvement you’d have thought, drawn in stall 1 I’d be surprised if he doesn’t at least place.

Result - Lost
