Revolver Even Monday in Sandown Hersham Handicap Odds
REVOLVER has taken to handicapping like a duck to water and he is the even money favourite for Sandown Hersham handicap odds* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 23:30 GMT on Thursday 6th August 2020).
He has won four from four this season. The latest of those was at Haydock where he was up against some tough opposition.
He always looked comfortable enough in the race to get the win, but looked to have had more in the tank should it have been needed.
He is improving all the time for Sir Mark Prescott and naturally he is taking on more now in the handicapping up at a mark of 85.
But he is bang in form and likely going to take some stopping as well. The leading claims are there.
Dancing Harry to get closer?
In his last race, DANCING HARRY was up against Revolver, finishing fifth behind the winner at Haydock. But he has fallen down the ratings a bit now, so he could be on a fairer mark to challenge.
Especially with Revolver going the other way. He scored on his debut last year and was progressing well in a couple of handicap efforts at Haydock.
He is certainly not to be counted out of this because of the ratings. Dancing Harry is a 13/2 option* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 23:30 GMT on Thursday 6th August 2020)
Can Punctuation make his mark?
Ridden by Oisin Murphy, PUNCTUATION will be looking to step into something big here. Back in February everything was rosy for him as he dismantled a field at Kempton.
He failed to progress from there however. But a recent effort on some softer stuff at Haydock on making his handicap debut, brought more out of him.
Punctuation took third in that effort, but goes at the head of the weights for the Hersham Handicap and is a 3/1 option* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 23:30 GMT on Thursday 6th August 2020).
Margaret Dumont to compete?
There has been some nice progress made by MARGARET DUMONT who will be heading into racetrack action for just the fourth time. She scored her first win in an effort at Ascot last month.
Immediately after that she was thrown in handicapping action at Newmarket and she really stood up well in that contest to take third.
There’s a lot of promise there and the extra bit in trip should fit the bill nicely for the 4/1 contender* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 23:30 GMT on Thursday 6th August 2020).
Can Oleksander make a decent showing?
OLEKSANDER came firing out of the gates as a juvenile. He won his two outings as a 2 year old. He has not quite gotten things together as a three year old yet however.
Oleksander returned to action with a fourth place finish at Haydock. But on a step up to a 12f trip at Royal Ascot he was well out of the running.
It all looked too much for him, so going up to 14f here leaves a lot of question marks over his chances.
Predictions & Tips for Sandown Cobham Handicap Racing Odds
How do you oppose REVOLVER? He is something special and has continued to look progressively brilliant under handicapping terms.
At even money, he can’t be passed on* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 23:30 GMT on Thursday 6th August 2020).
The main challenger to him that we see in this field, is not PUNCTUATION at top weights, but it is DANCING HARRY who has fallen down them.
There’s every chance he will fancy this at his new mark and is the best value to oppose the favourite with if that was the preferred way to go.
