Today’s Horse Racing Tip

We are pulling towards SPACE BLUES for this contest at a quote of 11/8* (odds recorded 21:00 GMT on 20th August 2021 at William Hill).

The form just reads in his favour. After a break of four months, he made a reappearance run in the Lennox.

Space Blues took a close fourth in that contest at Goodwood. He should strip fitter for that experience and this is his prime trip.

He has all of the ability needed to take this race on Saturday and put another substantial notch in his belt.

GLORIOUS JOURNEY has some claims for this as well. The notable form was his victory over 7f in the Criterion Stakes at Newmarket on his penultimate.

The other that looks set for a bold bid is PRIMO BACIO.

She has been really unlucky not to have gotten closer in a pair of Group 1s since claiming a victory at the Dante meeting at York. Primo Bacio is capable of taking this.

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

We are pulling towards AUSTRIAN THEORY to come up with the good in the Solario Stakes on Saturday.

He is a quote of 17/2 to get the job done* (betting odds recorded 21:00 GMT on 20th August 2021 at William Hill).

He opened with a win on his debut and some new, positive tactics saw him thrive last time out in the Vintage Stakes.

It was a third-place finish for him in that recent Group 2 at Goodwood last month. That puts him on the radar.

The obvious shortlist selection is REACH FOR THE MOON.

He got off the mark at the third time of asking, having had little trouble in landing a win at Newbury. There’s a lot more to come from him.

STAR FROM AFARHH is another with strong claims.

She won her debut at Newmarket last month and two from that race have since turned out to be victorious. So the form has been franked for the daughter Farhh.

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

Our horse racing tip for this Sandown contest is WALIYAK at 7/1* (betting odds recorded 21:00 GMT on 20th August 2021 at William Hill).

She is just a good consistent sort and stepped forward to win her latest race. That was a fortnight ago by a comfortable three and a quarter margin at Haydock.

That Listed win puts her right in the frame for Saturday.

INDIGO GIRL brings exciting claims to the table as well. She was just a little off her game in only taking a fourth-place finish in a Group 3 at Ascot a month ago.

AURIA arrives on the back of a course and distance win 49 days ago. That was a win recorded by more than a couple of lengths.

She retains plenty of ability and Andrew Balding’s filly could launch a bold bid on the weekend.

Attagirl 7/2
Boonie 9/2
Eternal Halo 5/1
Caturra 7/1
Ballet Steps 15/2
Thunder Love 7/1

Andadora 10/1

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

BOONIE fits the bill nicely as a horse racing tip on Saturday at a quote of 9/2* (betting odds recorded 21:00 GMT on 20th August 2021 at William Hill).

He claimed a win on his debut at Beverley and he has been going from strength to strength since.

There has not been a victory for him since that win, but place finishes in the Molecomb at Goodwood, as well as the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot, puts him in this.

Boonie gets the cheekpieces on for the first time on Saturday and is not likely to be far away. Neither should MITBAAHY.

He comes up on a trip for Roger Varian, which looks like being a good move. Mitbaahy won at Thirsk 20 days ago and could have more to offer.

ATTAGIRL does have qualities about her when the attitude is right. After a struggle at Group 3, she dropped to a listed run at Newbury for her latest.

She was right there but was just found wanting at the end and had to settle for second. There are definite claims for her.

13:50 York Strensall Stakes Today’s Horse Racing Tips & Odds

Real World 11/10
My Oberon 4/1
El Drama 6/1
Brunch 8/1
Lord Glitters 14/1
Duke Of Hazzard 16/1
Bell Rock 25/1

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

REAL WORLD has been going along in some very good recent form, winning his last two.

He has managed to look better on turf than he was on the all-weather.

There was a victory for him in the Royal Hunt Cup and then Real World backed that up with a score at Newbury in a listed race.

He looks like being the one to beat here at 11/10* (betting odds recorded 21:00 GMT on 20th August 2021 at William Hill).

BRUNCH is a likeable sort and there is good form behind him.

Close finishes in the Lincoln and in a run at the Dante meeting at York puts him in this. Brunch powered home to a win a listed run at Pontefract on his latest and can’t be dismissed lightly.

EL DRAMA found top prospect BAAEED the only one too good for him in a Group 3 at Goodwood home in last run.

So there’s plenty to like from that form and El Drama warrants respect.

14:10 Chester Stakes Today’s Horse Racing Tips & Odds

Yesyes 15/8
Dancing King 5/2
Morando 3/1
Deja 5/1
Uber Cool 12/1

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

Our horse racing tips for Saturday close out with a look at DANCING KING at 9/2* (betting odds recorded 21:00 GMT on 20th August 2021 at William Hill).

He looks to be the value pick here as he may well find this a little easier going. He was up at Group 3 last time out, failing to make an impact.

But there have been three wins for him and while he hasn’t answered questions in recent efforts in better company, this is well within the range of Dancing King.

YESYES is an exciting one. She won her first two races and then produced further improvement to take fourth in a listed run at Newmarket three weeks ago.

She’s unexposed and coming up on the trip could see her flourish.

If the expected rain at Chester arrives on Saturday then that will play into the hands of MORANDO.

He has been below par in his last two. But brings a decent track record to the table and conditions should suit.
