Belhaven
Ascot 2:05 (UK time)
Harry Eustace’s filly features highly in plenty of ten to follow lists this season, and she started off the new term with an authorative win in testing ground at Nottingham. She has plenty of scope to progress after ten career runs so far, and can put her race-fitness to good use in this valuable Saturday contest at Ascot (with the wet week swinging ground conditions very much in her favour).
Odds: NA
Vafortino
Ascot 2:40 (UK time)
Kevin Phillapart de Foy is very much a trainer to keep on side with all summer, and his progressive handicapper has optimum conditions at Ascot to return to winning form. He has shaped really well in defeat now at Kempton and Newmarket, and seems sure to get the strong pace up front he needs to pounce late here under the excellent 3lb claimer Benoit de la Sayette.
Odds: NA
Odds are best odds available as at 9am May 13th 2023. Odds may now differ.
Time (UK) | Track | Horse | Analysis |
---|---|---|---|
1:30 | Ascot | Sir Rumi | Richard Hannon’s handicapper bounced back to his very best form when winning on soft ground at Epsom 18 days ago, and that race-fitness could prove a valuable asset in this very competitive Ascot Class 3. |
1:50 | Lingfield | Brasil Power | George Boughey has his team in blistering form at the moment, with 8 winners in the last 14 days at a 24% strike rate, and his recent arrival from Ireland impressed when landing a hefty gamble at Wolverhampton at the start of the month. |
2:05 | Ascot | Blhaven | Harry Eustace’s filly features highly in plenty of ten to follow lists this season, and she started off the new term with an authorative win in testing ground at Nottingham. She has plenty of scope to progress after ten career runs so far, and can put her race-fitness to good use in this valuable Saturday contest at Ascot (with the wet week swinging ground conditions very much in her favour). |
2:25 | Lingfield | Sacred | William Haggas’s high class 5-y-o mare has won 4 of her 13 career starts to date, finishing off last term with cracking efforts in victory and defeat in warm company. This looks a great opening to return to the fray in style, with her fitness assured and plenty in hand on official ratings. |
2:40 | Ascot | Vafortino | Kevin Phillapart de Foy is very much a trainer to keep on side with all summer, and his progressive handicapper has optimum conditions at Ascot to return to winning form. He has shaped really well in defeat now at Kempton and Newmarket, and seems sure to get the strong pace up front he needs to pounce late here under the excellent 3lb claimer Benoit de la Sayette. |
3:00 | Lingfield | Sea Of Roses | Andrew Balding is firing in the winners as the turf season kicks up a gear, and this progressive filly returned to the fray with a cracking effort when sent over to Saint-Cloud at the start of April. She remains with plenty of upside after just three career starts, and the booking of Oisin Murphy certainly increases confidence. |
03:15 | Haydock | Brentford Hope | Harry Derham’s progressive smooth-travelling hurdler remans open to improvement now pitched into big field handicaps, and his proven turn of foot should be a real asset at the end of a truly run Haydock handicap. |
03:35 | Lingfield | Military Order | Charlie Appleby’s 3-y-o has always been held in high regard at home, and created a deep impression when making all to land a Newbury novice on his reappearance. This stiffer test of stamina promises to unlock more improvement, and another positive ride from the front by William Buick should make him very hard to pass now upped in grade to listed company. |
