Race Favourite

For Race 4 from Bangor-On-Dee we have joint favourites in New Quay and Percy Street at 9/2* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 00:56 GMT on Tuesday, 25th August 2020). Let’s examine their claims further.

NEW QUAY pulled up on his last effort and he really hasn’t come good in his last couple of hurdle trips.

But a key factor for him could be the fact that he gets the cheek pieces on for the first time now. Overall however, he is well worth opposing in the market we feel.

PERCY STREET alone, who is not the most clinical of jumpers looks a better option. He has delivered back to back runners-up efforts in this last two at Newton Abbot and Fontwell.

So he has been there or thereabouts and is 1lb lighter than his last winning mark.

UK Racing Odds & Tips

AUTHORIZO could be the stand-out pick of the race here. He came good in his last effort which was a second-place at Cartmel.

He is only up 2lb but that’s been countered by a 5lb jockey claim. He was unlucky against a red-hot handicapped opponent at Cartmel and he looks ready to go better on the extra trip.

BEACH BREAK scored a win at the venue last August. He revisited this sphere on his last run (return to action) at Staford where he claimed fourth.

The one thing in question for this effort will be the extra trip that he takes on. Perhaps he is one to keep a market-eye on.

Race Favourite

There is a big test of stamina coming up and we have another race that features current joint favourites. Gray Day and His Dream are well ahead of the rest of the field at 2/1* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 00:56 GMT on Tuesday, 25th August 2020).

GRAY DAY scored a good third on his return to action from a field of 12 at Uttoxeter. That was a handicap effort and he should reappear sharper here.

He is only up an extra 1lb and Gray Day is a previous course and distance winner and claims 5lb for his jockey.

HIS DREAM has been heading in the right direction since his reappearance, getting in the frame in back to back efforts.

The most recent of those saw him take 3rd of 10 in a Southwell handicap. He looks to be on a very nice mark and will have the blinkers back on.

UK Racing Odds & Tips

MILAN OF CRYSTAL is at the bottom of the weights and she is making her return to action here.

She has not posted a win since 2018 but there was a significant improvement in her form and consistency at the back-end of last season.

She could be a player if coming back sharp immediately.

WAZOWSKI will be expected to be a little better for having had a reappearance run under his belt. That wasn’t a great run, finishing down the field at Cartmel over 22f a couple of weeks ago.

He has dropped a few pounds now and he is a previous course winner. Will he be sharp enough though as he looked rusty at Cartmel.

Race Favourite

The 11/4 favourite for this contest is COOL COUNTRY* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 00:56 GMT on Tuesday, 25th August 2020). He put in a good run on his reappearance to claim a course and distant second in July.

Cool Country really wasn’t in any form last season so that was a decent step forward for him. He does look a decent fit from the mark and should be a contender at this level.

His last run was his handicap debut and he should be able to push on from there despite a 4lb hike.

UK Racing Odds & Tips

ICONIC HERO has been carrying some good form since his reappearance and looks as if he will be a likely contender.

He has improved with every race since getting back into action, culminating in a runner-up spot at Fontwell a week ago. Iconic Hero is one for the shortlist for this handicap chase.

There should be enough there to pique interest in TIM ROCCO who is a previous course and distance winner.

He got that particular score on his reappearance this year and followed up with an excellent 2nd as well at Market Rasen.

He looked out of sorts last time out, but gets the blinkers on for the first time and poses a threat.

Race Favourite

The race favourite, only narrowly, is MR CARPENTER at 4/1* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 00:56 GMT on Tuesday, 25th August 2020). He made a big improvement last time out to score from totally out of the blue at York.

It was at at 100/1 SP that he got his win at as well in a mile and a half contest, really coming into his own taking on an extra trip.

That was a massive score for his new trainer Tim Easterby and now he is right at the head of the market for his next run, because he looked very good in landing the win.

UK Racing Odds & Tips

BURIRAM should be a major player in this contest as well, who took a third place finish at Windsor.

He could well have done better as well, but went at things a little too hard early.

But despite that he kept it together and that run came after a win in his previous race, meaning he’s been in the frame in each of his last three.

CLEARANCE is coming up in class, but is still one to perhaps keep on side for the trip. It has been seven wins in eleven race starts, but this will be the sternest test yet.

He is sitting on a hattrick at the moment. Clearance is on a good mark but this is a shorter trip for him. Very intriguing.

Race Favourite

JEANETTE MAY is the narrow 4/1 favourite for this contest currently* (betting odds taken from William Hill at 00:56 GMT on Tuesday, 25th August 2020). She just missed out on a hattrick last time out, even though it was still a good run.

She wasn’t disgraced as she took third on a Kempton trip in July, missing out on that trio of wins. Her recent wins were here at Yarmouth and then at Leicester. She still looks quite progressive and should be right in the frame in this competitive trip and should be kept on side.

UK Racing Odds & Tips

ACT OF MAGIC is a big contender in this wide-open fixture as well. He just missed out on the win at Beverley on his last trip, the sharpest run of his career yet.

Act Of Magic is a former course and distance winner as well, and with him being a couple of pounds down on his last winning mark, he has claims.

We would just have to have some considerations for LUNARY DEITY as well, backing him to bounce back after a poor trip last time out.

He is a former course and distance winner which offers some claims. His last run was here at Yarmouth but over a longer trip in which he never looked comfortable.
