Doncaster gets the green light for the first day of the two day Sky Bet Chase meeting. There is some good racing this weekend and it all kicks off today. Free Horseracing Tips from Racing Diary…
King Benny (1:20) bolted up last time and may still offer some value, despite the seven pounds penalty. He drops back in trip and I think had plenty in the tank, obviously on a good mark. Looks a rock solid each-way proposition at Doncaster.
I am very keen to see Brunston (1:55) from the Henderson yard, who are red hot. I think this could be another off the conveyor belt of novice winners from Seven Barrows and indeed the reports are good! It looks a fair contest and it is interesting that connections come here with surely easier options otherwise available.
Although I don’t think it will win, Straw Bear (1:00) is back over fences with Tony McCoy riding, at Fontwell, which should be fun! The long odds on Definity should win, but watching McCoy ride Straw Bear is interesting. McCoy gave one an amazing ride yesterday, booted home Folie A Deux at Warwick to the delight of some in-running punters who snaffled 999/1. McCoy is the master of his trade!
Good luck today!
