There’s a competitive eight-race card at Southwell on Wednesday 15th January and four of the races are sponsored by BetMGM, who currently have a welcome offer for new customers of Bet £10 Get £40 In Free Bets, which can be used at Southwell’s meeting. Our in-house tipster Steve Chambers takes a look at those four races and picks out his best bet in each race.
1.38pm Southwell – Boost Your Acca At BetMGM Handicap
Gemma Tutty’s ENOLA GREY has been a real model of consistency in recent times and while the five-year-old mare has been sneaking back up the handicap she looks more than capable of landing victory in this contest off a mark of 81. A winner at Wolverhampton last month, she then followed that up with a second placed finish at the same track last time out, but remains on the same mark here. She is sure to run a solid race and finished second here off 79 a few months ago, so the form is in the book for her to go close.

2:08pm Southwell – Boost Your Acca At BetMGM Classified Stakes (Div 1)
Very little makes significant appeal in this lowly contest, but the Peter Niven-trained MONSIEUR FANTAISIE is a course and distance winner, so could well have enough quality to taste more success at the track. Second last time out at the track, he has shown a decent level of form on the surface at this level, so is the tentative selection.

2.40pm Southwell – Boost Your Acca At BetMGM Classified Stakes (Div 2)
One of the toughest betting conundrums on the card, the likes of My Boy Jack, Wrath Of Hector and Frightening all look notable contenders, but the one to be with is AJRAD for Rod Millman. A winner at Chepstow back in September, the seven-year-old weakened in the final furlong last time out when fifth at Southwell, so the slight step back in trip to seven furlongs here could bring on about the minimal improvement to land victory.

3.15pm Southwell – BetMGM: Its Showtime Fillies’ Novice Stakes
Roger Varian’s SUZUKA can build on two promising runs and the daughter of Bated Breath can finally break her maiden tag in the novice stakes at 3:15pm. She wasn’t beaten far when dead-heating for fourth last month and she’s sure to improve again for that outing. If she can race more prominently through the early stages of this contest then she could well unleash a decent turn of foot to get her head in front in the closing stages.
