Horse Racing Betting Tips: Do Notre fear about Pari in the Lanzarote January 9, 2020 OLLY Murphy has only been training since 2017, but he has made an excellent start to his career which followed a four year spell with Gordon Elliott in Ireland. The son of decorated bloodstock owner Aiden, he comes from the right background to succeed in this tough game although that is no guarantee of success. [...]
David Pipe on his runners across the country over the next few days December 19, 2019 ONLY the one runner for me today at rain-soaked Ascot where it will be hard work. I was thrilled with ISRAEL CHAMP at Cheltenham last month and he is back in action in this afternoon’s Listed bumper (3.40pm). It’s a hot-looking race and life will be tougher with a 4lb penalty to carry, but we [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Belami looks ready to take Ascot Silver December 19, 2019 AFTER all the recent rain, conditions look set to be brutal at Ascot this weekend so tread with care. If there’s one horse who won’t mind it heavy it’s Venetia Williams’ BELAMI DES PICTONS who can be backed at 7/2 with Ladbrokes to win tomorrow’s Silver Cup (3.00pm). He won on terrible ground over this [...]
Japan and Magic Man dominate Hong Kong International Races December 8, 2019 AFTER drawing a blank at the Longines Hong Kong International Races 12 months ago, the Japanese were back with a bang at Sha Tin on Sunday, winning three of the four Group One prizes. Win Bright, trained by Yoshihiro Hatakeyama and ridden by Masami Matsuoka, scooped nearly £1.6 million after landing the richest race of [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: King’s Sceau to give Royal performance in Tingle Creek December 5, 2019 WATCHING top-class chasers speed around Sandown is one of the greatest sights in Jump racing. With the cream of the current two-mile crop out in force for the Betfair Tingle Creek Chase (3.00pm), this year’s race promises to be a scintillating spectacle. Defi Du Seuil heads the betting after defeating Politologue in the Shloer Chase [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Just Step Back and leave Sandown handicap to the Pro December 5, 2019 GIVEN the likes of Brain Power and Lil Rockerfeller have won the Jumeirah Hotels And Resorts December Handicap Hurdle (2.25pm) in the past, it clearly takes a pretty smart sort to win it. I’m hoping that horse might be Dan Skelton’s PROTEKTORAT who made a promising return to action last time where he was just [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: Clouds can Kick rivals into Touch at Aintree December 5, 2019 BILLIONAIRE businessman and major owner Trevor Hemmings loves to have winners at Aintree, but there is one race that matters more to him than any other. Hedgehunter, Ballabriggs and Many Clouds have given him three memorable Grand National victories and you get the feeling he has always thought VINTAGE CLOUDS might be the next. Sue [...]
David Pipe on his runners across the country over the next few days December 5, 2019 WE’RE HOPING VIEUX LION ROUGE can run another big race at Aintree tomorrow in the Becher Chase (1.30pm). He’s got a pretty formidable record over the big National fences and comes into this in good form having won a veterans’ race before being given a nice spin over hurdles last time. Tom [Scudamore] schooled him [...]
Horse Racing Betting Tips: West and Conditional the right Approach in big one November 28, 2019 SOME of racing’s brightest stars have lifted the Ladbrokes Trophy (3.00pm). Arkle, One Man and Denman have all had their names etched on to the roll of honour of Newbury’s greatest race. Dorset trainer Colin Tizzard has won this prize twice in the last three years with subsequent Gold Cup hero Native River and Sizing [...]
David Pipe on his Newbury runners over the next couple of days November 28, 2019 WE RUN DAKLONDIKE in the Ladbrokes Trophy Chase (3.00pm) at Newbury tomorrow and despite the fact it probably won’t be soft enough for him, I think he may be overpriced. He is talented, but very quirky, and prepped for this with a really nice run over hurdles earlier in the month. Scu (Tom Scudamore) schooled [...]
