Saturday’s Horseracing Tips…18th JulyThe

High Standing- 100% over 6 furlongs

It’s been a good week, but Saturday is where the real action is with Newbury and Newmarket offering the best racing action. The big race is the Super Sprint, a race in which I have found the winner for the past two years and will now look to land the hat-trick.

There is certainly plenty of racing to get stuck in to, no fewer than four afternoon meetings and two evening cards. We will focus on the best of the action on Saturday.

2.20 Newbury- High Standing, Win (Nap)

High Standing (2.20) horse has a 100% record over 6 furlongs, boasting the Wokingham at Royal Ascot amongst his victories. Now in the care of William Haggas he has won three times for his new trainer and is improving hand over fist. Ryan Moore gave the four year-old a great ride at Ascot and retains the ride in this group three company.

Though stepping up in class I would be surprised if there were not further improvement to come and I honestly can not see him being beaten. This could be a top class performer over six furlongs and the Newbury going should be perfect for him. This is a very solid bet and is awarded NAP status.

3.55 Newbury- Covert Ambition, Win

Frankie Dettori takes the ride aboard Godolphin’s lightly raced four year-old Singspiel colt who reopposes Tranquil Tiger, on equal terms, after getting his measure last time at Sandown. Covert Ambition (3.55) should be able to make it three wins from only four career starts for a stable that is now is full flight and firing in the winners with regularity.

2.35 Newmarket – Flame of Gibraltar, Win

Henry Cecil is one of the best ever trainers of fillies and though not one of the best he has ever trained Flame of Gibraltar (2.35) is talented and progressive which was illustrated by her second in the Ribblesdale. The three year-old gets a handy weight allowance and Barhiba has to concede 19 pounds, a tall order and probably beyond her. This listed contest is a drop in class for the daughter of Rock of Gibraltar, a race she ought to win.

The Super Sprint- I will leave that to the Professor today!
