Yesterday showed the sad side of horse racing as the sole selection on Friday, Thistle Do Nicely, went wrong when running around the final bend before entering the straight. It's unfortunate that these things happen in horse racing, and it's not nice to see, my thoughts go out to the connections of Thistle Do Nicely.
Today's racing is top notch and there is a bit of racing for everyone, whether you're a fan of the jumps or love the top tier flat racing.
Newmarket 1:50
On form I can't see how MASEKELA loses this race, as he should be head and shoulders above the rest. Unfortunately, this is a 2yo race and they prove time and time again that you shouldn't underestimate the lightly raced unexposed horses.
Coroebus has been well found in the market, and it's no real surprise to see this due to being owned by Godolphin, and trained by Charlie Appleby, who can't do anything wrong this season. This horse was impressive on debut, and he has the pedigree to reach the top level of this sport, but on his second race, this might come a little too soon for him, when you consider the form of the other horses in this race, and the experience they bring to the table.
Masekela was a runner-up to Native Trail in July, and that horse has since become the highest rated 2yo in the UK & Ireland, after he absolutely demolished the Goffs Vincent O'Brien National Stakes (Group 1) at the Curragh, a few weeks ago. Masekela managed to push Native Trail all the way to the line when they met, and he only managed to win by a short head. Since then, Masekela went on to win a Class 1 Listed race at Newbury, beating Bayside Boy, who in turn won a Group 2 at Doncaster beating some well thought of horses, including Reach For The Moon.
Based on what we've seen from the selection in his previous four runs, it would suggest this step up in trip will bring out further improvement, as he was staying on strongly on the last two occasions over 7f, where he either won on the line, or was running on and just failing to win.
Curragh 4:10
Sometimes in horse racing you try and look for good value to go against the favourite, and sometimes you overthink it when in reality the most likely winner is the favourite. This race is one of those races, but this time I will not be overlooking the favourite and I will be backing him. ART POWER should be putting this race to bed if he races to anywhere near his form that he has shown so far on many occasions this season.
This doesn't look like a strong renewal, with many horses being rated in the 90s or low end of the 100s, whereas Art Power comes into this race off a mark of 114, and you can't really argue with that. He finished 5th in Haydock Super Sprint at the start of September, finishing 1.75 lengths behind the winner. Earlier in the season he was 4th in the July Cup and that was a superb effort when you consider he raced on his own for most of the race on the rail, only to be swallowed up late in the race by Starman and the other closers. He was 3rd in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot, losing to Dream Of Dreams and Glen Shiel who finished second. When you compare this form to any of the others in this race, it's hard to come up for an argument to go against him, despite not being a great price.
There are a couple in here who will attract market support, and that will be down to their lightly raced profiles. Twilight Spinner has his first start for new trainer Joseph O'Brien. He was bought by his new connections after he was impressive for David O'Meara in his first three starts. He comes into this with a rating of 106, but it is a slight concern that he's not been seen on the track for 127 days, and also his best form has come on heavy ground, which is completely different to today's conditions.
Jean Baptiste 3.40 Newmarket
Won at the course and is pretty consistent.
90/1 for 6 places bet365 or 55s down to 10th.
Only 50s with betfair at the moment

You beat me to it 😃
Had to bet it last night after both of yous tipped it 👍

Fingers crossed kid🤞
Cambridgeshire 3-40 Newmarket
Stick a pin and hope race 🏇 Just the 37 runners so picked 2 outsiders for interest on the old bet365 ew extra, one which Pete above has picked also.
Jean baptiste 55-1 for 10 places.
You’re hired 45-1 for 10 places.
Anyone lands a tricast in this race deserves to be a rich man 😆.
Youre hired’s last run is interesting on bare form
It finished 3/4 of a length behind uncle Bryn at Ascot, today you’re hired is 10 pound better off with the claimers 5 pound.
Today uncle Bryn is 8-1 and you’re hired 80-1 !!!
You’re hired also came 4th last year at 100-1 so big fields are no problem, age could be though at 8 probably a bit long in the tooth now but could go well behind the main contenders.
Great minds mate. Good luck 🍀
I put them 3 above with giselles ausie 1’25@Curragh ,,22p ew Yankee pays 50’1 G,L
Hello all,
I was happy to land Benbatl today, he came on nicely for the run and knuckled down well to win. There’s no doubt Master of the seas was probably unlucky not to win. Definitely keep an eye on that one next time out. Found himself a bit further back than he probably liked hence why he was pushed along a fair bit out but the gap opened and he looked like he was going to storm over the the top of them but the gap closed and he had to angle out but still looked a major danger taken everything into account..
I’ve gone for just the one selection tomorrow and’s it’s an each way shout.
Irish Admiral 20/1 – 3:40 – Newmarket
5 Places with 365
I thought the haggas trained Irish admiral was slightly overpriced in the market at 20s and with 5 places on offer it’s not a bad bet.
He’s back up to a career high mark as he steps back up in grade after winning quite nicely at Redcar 3/4 weeks ago.
He also had a few of these behind him at the York Ebor festival so he’s obviously capable enough to be at least competitive. There’s no doubt he has a fair bit to find in order to win a race of this nature but there’s no reason he can’t improve and he stays the trip well. Tom Marquand rides.
Nothing else from me. I’ve had a good week and Saturday racing is more a watching day for me rather than punting. It’s too easy to get ‘carried away’ top horses running left right and centre. It’s not worth throwing money down the drain. Well that’s my view on it anyway.
Good luck tomorrow everyone.
You can get 20-1 at 7 places on Irish admiral at hills, Paddy,skybet, Betfair, Betfred and Boyle sports but only 1/5 odds 👍
Bet365 20-1 for 5 places at 1/4 odds.
@Elvis
Cheers Elvis, I don’t actually gamble online. Used Gamstop to permanently block that along time ago. Far too accessible…
However I do use the shops and I have a boylesports quite close. I’ll probably take advantage of the 7 places at 1/5 odds.
Hay 3.15 Call me Ginger 11/4 I seen him win again last week at Ayr and looked like he won pretty cosily.
Looks to be pace in the race for him to aim at and am surprised hes only went up 3 pound and 11/4 looks a decent price to me.

Stick with Maskela too and go with Art Power for the Trixie.
