2:05 Sandown Racing Tips (16th June)

SANDOWN 2.05 

5F Class 4 9 Runners It's very unusual to find a minimum sprint where there isn't any known front running types which always puts me on the back foot, Tolstoy doesn't seem to appreciate really fast ground, Thismydream may be outclassed at this level and Coup De Force might prefer a longer distance and I would look to lay them if of value to do so. Lil Guff is my 4th top rated and can be held up or track the leaders and might have to be aware of the early pace so as not to get the pace wrong and not run to its best, What's In The Bag is my 2nd joint top rated and likes to track the leaders while Harb my other 2nd top rated is usually held up for a late run so this race might not be run to suit it, LIPSINK 3/1 is my top rated and can be held up or track the leaders and will be carrying my money but not much of it in this race that could become a messy tactical affair.

Lipsink 5/1 4th -1pt 

Lay bets: Coupe De Force +1pt

YORK 3.00 

6F Class 2 8 Runners Up to 6 furlongs for this sprint but I can only find 1 front running type so the early pace should be a decent one, Dora Penny, Radio Goo Goo and Distinguished Lady could all be outclassed at this level but the latter pair are 3yo’s so could still be capable of improving so maybe not ones I could lay confidently, while the former horse has won at this level but it was back in 2021. Crazy Luck may not want really fast ground and is another that might be outclassed at this level. My money will be riding on AL SIMMO 10/1 who is my top rated using a Salisbury rating it recorded last year and as its also the known front running type it could lead all the way in this race and the jockey has a 33% win ratio on all of the stables runners which rises slightly up to 38% when riding the stables older horses.

2:45 Brighton Racing Tips (21st August)

BRIGHTON 2.45 

I hope all 8 runners take part in this class 4 race where I can see four known front running types one of them *Holbache 4/1 might not be up to winning at this level and might be worth laying if a short enough price while both of the other two possible pacesetters, Smeaton's Light 11/2 and Michael's Choice 7/1, would need to improve time wise to be winning this race, Batchelor Boy 5/1 has one time that would make it my top rated but that time which was recorded over this course and distance might have been a fluked time where everything fell into its favour, I will be relying on the fourth and final front running type HELVETIQUE 11/2 in this race and if this one gets to the front it could prove hard to catch and the jockey has a decent 16% win ratio on the stables runners.

SANDOWN 4.12 

A strange race for one over the minimum distance with only one known front runner in the shape of Silky Wilkie who comes out sixth on my figures and could be dangerous if allowed an easy lead, the three year old Edward Cornelius 15/2 could be a lay if its a single figure price as it doesn't seem to like fast good to firm ground, Devils Angel 15/2 would need to improve quite a few spots time wise to win this race so maybe another one to lay, The Thin Blue Line and Primos Comet are capable of recording fast times but have never won at class 3 level but I doubt they will be of value to lay, unless your a big risk taker, Treacherous comes out in 2nd top spot so could make the frame but my money will be riding on the improving four year old GLORIOUS BREEZE 15/2 who has made the frame in all of its last six races, winning two of them and should be capable of at least making the frame again here and has a chance of following up its win last time out Salisbury but because it is raised in class my stakes will be kept low.

4:40 Lingfield Racing Tips (20th August)

LINGFIELD 4.40 

Only 6 runners with one known front running type, I will look to lay Porfin 7/2 who can find the distance too far with a fast early pace which will most likely happen here and looks better on the Tapeta surface, Firenze Rosa who likes to track the leaders is my 3rd top rated while the top weight Twilight Secret starts off as my top rated and I think it will be a short priced favourite but I will take a punt with backing CHAMPAGNE SUPANOVA 5/1 who is the one I think will set the pace to the race and when I take of the apprentices 5lb claim it takes the top spot on my figures so I'm hoping it can lead all the way and the apprentice jockey hasn't ridden for the stable on the AW tracks before but on turf is two wins from two rides so it will be carrying my money.

SANDOWN 5.35 

I can only see one front running type in this race so if Glamorous Breeze 14/1 is allowed an uncontested lead it might do enough to make the frame or maybe even better so cannot be dismissed as the possible winner, I will look to lay Impeach 9/2 who might need a longer distance before it shows its best form and it was a slow time when it finished 2nd and might have been flattered by that run and therefore represents poor value in this race, Chipstead likes to track the leaders and could be an each way possibility in this race, Four Adaay 6/1 is my top rated using just 2022 ratings and usually runs in midfield before staying on nearing the finish, BEYOND EQUAL 12/1 would need to improve on what its shown so far this year but has a rating from Newmarket in 2021 which would see it track the early pace and then stay on the stronger nearing the finish and the jockeys record is 1-3 for the stable and at the price as a type of insurance I am able to back it each way.

SANDOWN 1.15

I can see 2 front runners in this field of 11, Saaheq 5/1 and Recon Mission 8/1 may not appreciate the good to firm ground and the latter may be better when tried over further swhile Delegate This Lord 10/1 would also appreciate further and hasn't been in good form time wise lately. Nordic Glory 11/1 is one of the possible pacesetters but it would need to improve time wise to win this race so any or all could be worth laying.  Acrion hasn't any turf form to its name and its best AW rating would make it my 3rd top rated but both the trainer and jockey have poor stats with the stables older horses but could be worth an each way interest, the 3rd front running type Street Parade is my 2nd top rated horse but the trainer has a poor 4% win ratio with their older horses here and the jockey is 0-12 which makes me think the race could be set up for HAN SOLO BERGER 10/1 (EW) who can be held up or track the leaders before staying on at the finish the trainer has a 21% win ratio with their older horses here while the jockey is 1-4 on the stables older horses and if an each way price all the better.

A field of 11 for this class 5 sprint with 3 known front running types So Grateful 9/2 and Giogiobbo are 2 of them but would need to improve time wise to win this race and they may not be able to lead in this race anyway. Athollblair Boy 11/2 likes good to firm ground to show its best but even then it would need to improve on the clock to win here. The top weight Sound Of Iona 9/4 is looking to complete a four-timer but only comes out 4th best on my figures and might struggle to give the weight to some better weighted opponents and might be worth taking on at the price. Point Of Woods comes out 3rd best and is usually held up for a late run but it might be too far for it on good to firm ground. Igotatext 14/1 is the other known front runner and being my 2nd top rated on a time it recorded at Yarmouth last year it could prove hard to catch if getting to the front but hasn't been in great form in its recent runs, my money will be riding on SINGE ANGLAIS 14/1 (EW) who recorded a rating last year at Carlisle that would see it winning this race a shade cosily and the apprentice jockey does quite well on the stables older horses and at the price it has to be an each way wager.

SANDOWN 3.25 

Not enough data to say much about every horse so a summary blog will have to suffice, there's 14 runners with 2 known front running types among them, firstly I will be looking at Lordsbridge Boy 4/1 to lay because I think this class 4 race might be a bit too much for it to win but would only lay the win part as it could run well, there's a few others that I could lay for various reasons but they will in, my estimate, all be double figure prices so not of value to lay, Fantasy Master 7/1 and Saheeq 11/1 could go well and might be worth an each way interest if they are of value to do each way, Just Glamorous is one of the known front runners but time wise it sits just outside my top four ratings so may not be good enough to win the race but could still possibly make the frame if it doesn't lose go mad from the off and use up all its stamina by trying to challenge WORLD OF WINDHOVEN 11/1 (EW) for the lead, but if the latter gets to the front it could prove hard to catch, it has good jockey stats who has a 25% win ratio for the stable on their older horses and at the price it has to be given as an each way wager.

1:30 Sandown Racing Tips (10th September)

SANDOWN 1.30 

SENECA CHIEF 3/1 has relatively slow times over this distance, it is capable of going well but i doubt it can win this race as it needs to improve quite a good few spots.

NEFARIOUS 14/1 has been known to lead before but I doubt it is fast enough to beat one of the other likely front runners to get into the lead and I think it will one of the outsiders.

WINGS OF A DOVE 6/1 a 3yo that could be the one to set the early pace and its my 3rd top rated on a time recorded at Bath this year and could be dangerous with an easy lead.

STREET PARADE 7/1 the 3rd possible pacesetter but I doubt it can beat the horse above to get to the front and even if getting there it needs to improve quite a good few spots.

GLAMOROUS BREEZE 11/4 a 3yo that races in midfield before staying on at the finish and comes out 2nd top rated on my own speed figures using its best time from Chepstow this year and under the right conditions it is a fairly consistent beast. 

ENDURING 10/1 a 3yo which is the one of the quartet of that age that I don't rate in this race as i think this distance will prove to be too short for it. 

MISTER BLUEBIRD a 3yo who recorded a time at Windsor this year that would win this race it was in good form and then the last 2 runs over 6 furlongs can be ignored and now dropped back to 5 furlongs ought to see it back to winning ways. 

SUMMARY: There's four 3yo’s and 3 known front runners in this race and the youngsters could hold the aces, the 3yo Wings Of A Dove could do best of the trio of front runners as it comes out 3rd best on my figures, I will look to lay Enduring who might find things happening a bit too quick for it over the minimum distance, another 3yo Glamorous Breeze usually runs in midfield in its races but my money will be riding on the other 3yo MISTER BLUEBIRD 4/1 who can hopefully track the leaders and then stay on the stronger at the finish.

SANDOWN 1.00 

This is an 8 runner race and I hope all run so I can go with an each way wager, there is 3 known front running types so it should be a fast run 5 furlong dash, I might lay Libertine Belle as it may need further but its sometimes risky laying a 3yo especially if its backed so the betting will be my guide whether to lay it or not, Spurofthemoment also may need further so maybe another one to lay, as for the winner I will probably dutch four horses, SAAHEQ 10/1, BUY ME BACK 11/4, SPRING BLOOM 11/2, UNION ROSE 28/1, in this race and I will probably have another each way bet on the latter who is my top rated using a time from 2020 at Bath and its time from just 2021 puts it in 3rd top spot so it ought to have a chance of at least making the frame and looks the value call in the race.

YARMOUTH 2.00 

Ten runners with only Sir Rodneyredblood 15/2 known as a front running type but that was on the AW tracks, it hasn't made the frame in 5 runs on turf but its best AW time would make it my 2nd top rated but its not for me in this race and maybe one to lay, the other early paced one is Breath Of Spring 9/1 who could also do enough to make the frame but not sure if it can hold on for the win, Excellent George 33/1 would make the frame using its best time from 2019 or 2020 but hasn't reached that level so far this year but might be worth an each way punt if its 20/1 or bigger, Molly Shaw 11/4 and Secret To Success 9/1 could also go well but my money will be riding on GLOBAL HOPE 16/1 (EW) who recorded its best time over this course and distance in 2020 and a repeat would see it getting back to winning ways and i am hoping I can do it as an each way bet and the jockey has a 17% win ratio on the stables older horses.

YARMOUTH 4.50 

Only 4 runners but what a race to try and solve, I could lay Castana Dia 7/4 who may need further and looks very poor value at the price in my opinion plus you don't lose much if it does win, Invincible Larne is likely to try and set the pace but time wise it needs to improve a good few spots to hold on for the win, of the other 2 I think dutching all of them might be the way to go, STAY SMART 5/1 could be the one to make sure the early pace is fast and using its best time which came on the AW at Newcastle it would be my top rated but its best time on turf is quite a lot lower but has to have a chance, SPIRITED GUEST 9/4 would be my 3rd and 2nd top rated but there is only 2lbs between the pair of them on my overall ratings but I sure wont be betting too heavily in this race.

A field of 9 here with only Barrington 8/1 having been known to lead before but hasn't been in good form lately and I doubt it could hold on for the win even if in top form, I will look to lay Blazing Hot 6/1 who may struggle to stay the distance with a fast early pace, Dandys Gold is my 4th top rated but just 1lb behind Lucky Beggar in 3rd top spot and the later usually stays on at the business end of a race over this distance, the top weight Mutanaaseq comes out in 2nd top spot using a time from Thirsk this year and is another that stays on at the finish of a race,i will be putting my trust and money on HAIL SEZER 7/2 who recorded a time at Carlisle when finishing 2nd that would see it winning this race a shade cosily.

1:35 Sandown Racing Tips (12th June)

SANDOWN 1.35 

I will look to lay both Phoenix Star 11/2 and Vandad 11/1 if they are single figure prices, the former seems to want a longer trip to show its best while the latter has poor trainer/jockey stats and seems a weak finisher over both sprint distances, Shecandoo 8/1 has been running well but my be outclassed in this race but i doubt it will be a single figure price at the off, Secretfact 12/1 seems to be on a downward spiral time wise each year and as an 8yo I doubt it will bounce back to its best of 2019, Saaheq 13/2 doesn't want the ground to be rattling but this ones best time from 2019 would put it in the mix but the trainer has a poor record here with their older horses of one win from thirty four races, Royal Birth 14/1 could go well here but its another that I've gone back to 2019 to find its best form, they are all capable on their day but can they bounce back to form is the question so I will place my faith on SERAPHINITE 15/2 who likes to track the leaders and is my top rated on recent, 2020/21, times and the jockey has a 25% win ratio on the stables older horses so I'm hoping that's a positive omen.

CHESTER 2.10

I can see 3 front running types in this 14 runner race but I am not a fan of betting at this course, Turanga Leela 8/1 and Glory Fighter 9/2 could set the pace and the former could do enough from the front to make the frame but they are both a bit short in the betting to be of value in my opinion, Brian The Snail 10/1 could go well but stall 3 isn't of any help for a hold up type unless the rails have the cutback nearing the finish, Second Collection 14/1 is my top rated on a time from Windsor last year but its out in stall 12 which could be a hindrance and the trainer is 0-16 here and the jockey is 0-12 for the stable, so my money will be on SIR MAXIMILLIAN 11/2 who from stall 4 could sit just behind the leaders waiting to pounce at the business end of the race.

YORK 5.25 

A field of 20 here so very very hard to be sure what will happen concerning the draw, I think/hope those drawn high may have the advantage and will be betting accordingly, Mr Wagu 8/1 has been in tremendous form lately and could try to set the pace here but this is a step up in class so I'm not sure its up to winning this race but I do expect it to go well and could at least make the frame so I will have a covering bet on this one just in case it is improving enough to handle this higher class race, there isn't anything of value that I can find to lay in this race as they are all double figure prices so no lays but I will be having a small each way wager on SOUL SEEKER 16/1 who usually tracks the leaders and then stay on at the finish, it has good jockey stats and also a stall 17 draw might be advantageous so at the price it looks the value call. 

Soul Seeker 18/1 6th -1pt

LEICESTER 8.45 

Only 7 runners but 4 of them have been known to lead, I will look to lay Cool Spirit 2/1 who may need further to show its best and looks poor value at the price so worth taking the risk of laying it, it has been known to lead but in longer distance races so it might get outpaced in the early stages of this race, Davids Beauty could do best of the front runners and will be hard to pass once hitting the front but with only 2 places its not worth going each way, my money will be riding on KATHERINE PLACE 13/2 who likes to track the leaders and then stay on strongly in the final stages of the race so this race could be ideal for it.

1:25 Sandown Racing Tips & Lay Bets (11th September)

SANDOWN 1.25 

RIO RONALDO 13/2 has shown nothing timewise so far this year even when finishing 3rd it was a slow time, if you go back to 2018 it would be my top rated and the jockey is 1-2 for this stable so maybe they think it can wind back the years but i have my doubts and maybe worth laying at the odds.

BRUNELS BOY(3yo) 13/2 is 0-5 on turf and then add on that I think it might not want the going to be too fast and may need a longer trip to show its best so looks one worth laying at the price if it stays 8/1 or below. 

NEWYORKSTATEOFMIND(3yo) 11/4 is 3rd best on just 2020 times but drops to 6th overall if the others reproduce their best so it might make the frame but I somehow doubt it will win and looks poor value at the price but never say never with a 3yo. 

UNION ROSE 11/2 is one of 3 known front runners in the field but it hasn't shown much so far this year but the trainer has a 5-10 win rate at this course and its best time from 2019 would make it 2nd top overall and could lead all the way here. 

MICHAEL'S CHOICE 9/1 another possible pacesetter and is my 2nd top rated on just 2020 times but drops to 4th overall and I'm not sure this type of course will suit it but not of value to lay. 

PINK FLAMINGO 13/2 has only slow times so far this year but its best time from Leicester last year would put it into the mix but the trainers record of 1-45 at this course makes me think they may have another target in mind and may need good to firm ground to show its best form and I might lay it if under 8/1. 

GREEN DOOR 14/1 has only slow times at this distance on turf and this is mainly due to it preferring some cut in the ground to show its best so one to lay in my opinion but probably isn't of value to lay for some people. 

GINGER MAX 7/2 has only 1 previous run at this distance and looking at other form it looks as though a further distance would suit it better and I would lay at the price as it looks poor value in my opinion.

ATTY'S EDGE has the fastest time for just 2020 so has to be considered as a possible winner I'm not sure if it drops to 3rd or 4th overall bu it could make the frame but i doubt it will be an each way price. 

NON-RUNNER SUMMARY: They are saying the going is good but as this is the 2nd race on the card please check before having a bet, I will look to lay (Brunel's Boy + Ginger Max + Green Door) as long as they are all no bigger than 8/1 in price, as for betting I will go with UNION ROSE 11/2 as I think this one could well lead and if getting to the front and reproducing its best time from last year it could hold on for the win.

A field of 10 for this class 3 race with a couple of known frontrunners it should be a true run affair, I can only find (Cold Store) to lay as I think it needs either a longer trip or a slower surface maybe both, its a hard race to narrow down to a final conclusion and I have 4 runners that I think could possibly win this race, Teruntum Star, Music Society, Admiralty, and Monoski. Teruntum Star doesn't want good to firm ground, Admiralty has good trainer/jockey stats but its best time was back in 2018, Music Society also has good trainer/jockey stats but again might not want it to be good to firm ground, my main selection, therefore, has to be MONOSKI 12/1 (EW) who is only a three year old and could improve further and has a chance to lead all the way here but at these odds, it has to be given as an each-way wager.

2:50 Sandown Racing Tips (13th September)

SANDOWN 2.50 (7.7) 

UNION ROSE my original 3rd top-rated but I'm not sure this course will be ideal for it and timewise needs to improve. 

KING ROBERT needs to show quite a bit more at this trip as it looks much better over further and it would be one I would look to lay if priced at a single figure price. 

INDIAN RAJ is my other original joint top-rated who might not want really fast going and the jockeys 2-4 record for this stable points to them expecting a big run here. 

DR DORO is another that could attempt to lead but another that would also need to improve timewise to stay there all the way to the line. 

JOEGOGO a possible front runner is being ridden by a 7lb claiming apprentice but he has a 0-7 record for this stable so I'm not sure this race is its target.

OUR OYSTERCATCHER could try to lead but needs to improve timewise to win this race and could be one to lay in running if it does get to the front. 

REWAAYAT recorded a fast time over 6 furlongs but hasn't been tried over this distance before so I'm not sure whether it got the early speed so as not to get outpaced and if can then it could be very dangerous. 

KODIAC EXPRESS starts off as my joint top rated on 2019 times and its 3lb apprentices claim moves it to top spot and the jockey has 24% win record for this stable.

WOTADOLL hasn't shown much at this distance lately and its win this year was over 6 furlongs so it could be trying to stay on at the finish but I think too late. 

BAHAMIAN SUNRISE has a time from 2018 that would just about make it competitive here but hasn't been in good form lately and will be one of the outsiders. 

SUMMARY: With 4 front running types in this race who are all rated very close together it should be a fast run dash but I think they will be setting the race up for something coming from off the pace, I will have to back INDIAN RAJ 4/1 now that it looks like Kodiac Express is going to be a non-runner, I would have backed them both if it had run, if getting a clear run when coming to challenge it could pick up the leaders.

1:50 Sandown Racing Tips (31st August)

SANDOWN 1.50 (7.7)

There's only 2 known front runners in this field of 13 runners and it looks a good class 3 affair, the one I think might set the pace is Justanotherbottle who comes out 2nd best if using its best time from Nottingham last year but hasn't shown much so far this year, Only Spoofing and Jumira Bridge are my 3rd and 4th top-rated so could go well but the one that's going to be lumbered with my money is DASCHAS 10/1 who likes to track the leaders, so not badly drawn in stall 8 with the early pace in stalls 10 and 11, and then stay on the stronger at the finish and the trainer isn't averse to having winners here with a healthy 17% win rate with his older horses.

I'm doubting the going will be ok here so just a few notes about the 2 sprints, this looks a nice Listed dash with 4 of the 10 runners being known to lead, Judicial could lead and is my 3rd top-rated on its best 2018 time, the one that might prosper if they go off too fast is Queens Gift being my 2nd top-rated and its a hold up type but I'm hoping TIS MARVELLOUS 3/1 who won last time out can get to the lead here and then prove very hard to catch. 

Tis Marvelous 3/1 5th

BEVERLEY 3..50  (7.0)

A big field of 15 with 4 runners that have been known to lead before, Shepherds Purse likes to track the leaders and then run on at the finish and it is my 3rd top-rated but a few spots behind the top 2 ratings, Archimedes won last time out on Sunday when it led all the way at 6/1 I tipped it that day and it has been found a reasonable chance of following up here but I'm not sure it will be able to lead all the way here and I do have one rated higher and that's BASHIBA 9/1 who is capable of leading but doesn't have to lead to win and its best time from 2018 at Ascot or its best from Haydock this year would see in back in the winners enclosure.

2:40 Sandown Racing Tips (30th August)

SANDOWN 2.40 (7.7) 

A lot of sprints for me to analyse today so have to keep things fairly brief for each race, this is a very tight little handicap, Our Oystercatcher could be the one setting the pace and is my 3rd top-rated it could prove hard to catch for most, Spanish Star comes out 2nd best so could make the frame but my money will be on SECRETFACT 5/1 obviously my top rated and it has good trainer and jockey stats. 

Secretfact 8/1 4th 

THIRSK 3.40 (7.9)

A field of 17 so my stakes won't be at full strength in this race, Roundhay Park is my 3rd best on a Doncaster time so could well if it can reproduce it on this more undulating course, Jawwaal sits in 2nd top spot and this one likes to track the leaders and its drawn in stall 17 while most of the early pace seems to be in those drawn low, top spot goes to TOMMY TAYLOR 12/1 who also did its best time at Doncaster and it does have to overcome a losing run of 17 races. 

Tommy Taylor 12/1 5th

WOLVERHAMPTON 5.05

There's 13 runners with just 2 known frontrunners, Royal Connoisseur is well weighted on its best 2018 time but hasn't been in the same level of form this year, Always Amazing is top-rated on just 2019 times but its losing run of 22 is off-putting but could still make the frame, my top rated on my overall speed figures is PEACHEY CARNEHAN 16/1 who is also 2nd top on 2019 times and will be carrying some of my money. 

Peachey Carnaham 16/1 5th 

THIRSK 5.45 (7.9) 

I'm not a fan of these amateur lady jockey races but VENTURA SECRET 10/1 has a few spots in hand on its best form BUT yes it is a big but, there's a couple of negatives against it, firstly its on a losing run of 21 and secondly the jockette who I think is the trainers daughter has only had 18 rides, all for the stable and hasn't won a race so far but I'm hoping it might be worthwhile having a small wager. 

Ventura Secret 11/1 Unp

HAMILTON 8.00 (7.4) 

There's quite a few that could make the frame but they may be all fighting for one or 2 places if my ratings are correct and they run to their best, Groundworker comes out 2nd top using its best time from 2018 at Thirsk but hasn't been near that figure so far this year but it proven capable when in the right mood but I will be backing the 3-year-old *HARD SOLUTION 7/1 who recorded its best time over this c/d this year and should be staying on resolutely nearing the finish of this race.
