Fistral Beach (7.55 Chepstow) has been a beaten favourite in each of his last 5 outings, all at short odds the latest of which was at 1-2. It is a brave man that backs Paul Nicholls’ horse to win today, currently available to back at evens in the win market. Fistral Beach is closely matched on form and official ratings with Alan King’s China Gold. Fistral Beach must surely win today, but I am not inclined to let him carry any of my money.
The same connections, however, should have a winner in Chepstow’s opener with Hells Bay (2.00). This one is a similar price to Fistral Beach but is a much more solid proposition and I will be backing this one.
The big race of the day is at Sandown, The Bet365 Group 3 Derby Classic Trial (2.00) where Taameer is a warm order, currently 2.12 to Back. Only 4 (including joints) favourites have won from the last 21 running in this race but Taameer should make that look a little more respectable by winning today.
MARCUS TREGONING SAYS…
Hear what Marcus Tregoning Says about his horse- Click Here (from Sportinglife.com)*
Marcus Tregoning’s colt finished second in Ascot’s Group 3 Autumn Stakes on his last start which is by far the best form on offer. Malibu Bay from Aiden O’Brien’s battalions is the one to worry about but Taameer should prove to be the class horse in the field. I make Taameer (2.00 Sandown) my bet of the day.
Bet365 are sponsoring the Big Jumps Race Tomorrow and are offering some excellent offers to punters including a huge Free Bet offer.
The weekend promises to be a good one. Sandown stages a mixed card tomorrow, the likes of which are too few and far between in the UK, with the highlight being the Bet365 Gold Cup. I am looking forward to finding you the winner of the big race on the closing day of the jumps season.
