ROYAL SHAHEEN (Pontefract, nap, 3.20) found it tough up in class on very testing ground over course and distance last time but should find conditions more to his liking on Monday.
Regular readers will know how highly I rate Harry Angel, but he is winless in three trips to the Berkshire venue whereas old adversary CARAVAGGIO (Ascot, 2.00) thrives on his trips to today’s track.
Lord Glitters is fancied to go one better than he managed at Ascot last time when he lines up for the 4.30 at the same course on Saturday. He looks worth a bet in the richest mile handicap run in Britain this season.
Actinpieces looks the best bet in the 4.25 on Fakenham’s six-race Friday card. This doughty mare goes well fresh and hails from a stable in good form.
Two A/W meetings today and for the most part it is very tricky fare, but we go to war again with these five qualifying handicap contests at Newcastle & Dundalk.
On a day where decent wagers are at a premium, SHOWDANCE KID (Redcar, 3.45) could give punters some excitement on a typically autumnal card in the north east.
