Horse Racing Tips 29th July

Yes Elusive Kate! Big bet landed on the queen of Deauville. Still amazed at the 3-1 on offer in places, that’ll do nicely.

As usual, lets head straight from group 1 company to class 6 around Wolverhampton.

Almaty Express 7-1 Ladbrokes 15:45 Wolverhampton

This horse is a proper servant for connections. The course record holder for the amount of wins (18) is held by him. Normally, any rise in the weights is catastrophic to the horses chances, so the fact he’s up 6lbs for his sensational first turf win in 5 years last week (at an unfancied 22-1) would make life tough, had it not been the jockeys 7lb claim.

He’s essentially 1lb well in with the rides claim after his easy turf win last week, and we know how much he loves Wolverhampton. It’s incredibly rare for this horse to win two in a row, so i wouldn’t go overboard with the bets today. He’s a consistent sort who’ll give his all for sure.

One major issue is stall 13. He needs to lead into the first bend, 95% of his races are won from the front. His last run at Catterick is the one time i’ve seen him come from behind to win, i thought my 22-1 looked about 1000-1 when he didn’t get the lead, but he surprised me..

Extreme caution must be shown when going in each-way for this animal. His last 3 or so runs have been appalling although there was an ounce of encouragement. His last run he led for about 1m4f before weakening very quickly (as if something was amiss). He’s down from 2m to 1m4f today which could be a positive if his last 2-3 races are anything to go by. He won at Nottingham last year off a similar mark and has Michael J Murphy (5lb claimer) riding today.

Tentative small each way investment could pay dividends here.
