Thursday's Racing Tips (23rd November)

Wolverhampton -  5:30 - Looks quite competitive. Not much value unless something drifts to the extreme. Sunny Street would have fair stats at 13/2 and less sp. Not overly keen and no value. Interesting if Zipster comes back after disappointing last time out when a high stat horse. Stepping up in distance. Could show better today. Pitney was another decent stat horse last time and was running on. Tricky looking race. Would consider Pitney and Zipster most interesting but funny looking race and I doubt there will be any value. I would need one of these two to get to double figures to even ..read more

Today’s races: 2:30 Newcastle – Looks competitive. Assailant is a high stat but no value. Meydaan would be a high stat horse if 11/4 and less sp. Mr Hampstead has a group entry and half fancied in the betting. Tokyo Boy has fair stats if 13/2 and less sp. Will keep an eye on the betting but can’t see much value and if a few are in best betting guides will be hard to beat. 4:15 Newcastle - I thought Involvement looked very good on debut and very fast. No value and short odds but I really can’t see much beating this horse especially if a debutante. May be value with something at bigger odds b ..read more
