Saturday racing tips: Best bets for Haydock and Newmarket

27 Sept

Will Rook

Our tipster reveals his best bets for a busy day of racing at Haydock and Newmarket as well as a win double and lucky 15.

14:05 HAYDOCK

Kicking things off with a competitive handicap at Haydock where I fancy BARRISTAN THE BOLD to get back to winning ways.

His only win this season was at Newcastle in July, but he put in a very solid effort when third behind Oh This Is Us last month.

We know how good Tom Dascombe and Richard Kingscote are together at Haydock, so I think he’s a nice price at .

14:25 NEWMARKET

The Cheveley Park is up next in the Fillies Group 1 and I’m struggling to see past RAFFLE PRIZE here.

She’s got three wins and two seconds so far and both defeats came to quality opposition in Earthlight and Friday’s Rockfel Stakes winner Daahyeh – who she then beat in the Duchess Of Cambridge.

Being winner of the Queen Mary at the Royal meeting is also a nice one on the CV and it could be another Group 1 for Frankie Dettori.

15:00 NEWMARKET

This Middle Park Stakes is potentially the best two-year-old race I’ve ever seen and there’s a strong case to be made for the majority of the field.

However, the one who is really sticking out to me is SISKIN .

Ger Lyons colt is four from four and completed a hat-trick of wins at the Curragh last time out, collecting his first Group 1 in the Phoenix Stakes ahead of Monarch Of Egypt .

He’s got a lovely turn of foot and I think is only bettered by Pinatubo in this division.

15:40 NEWMARKET

The Cambridgeshire is one of my favourite races and, as we’re offering 6 places, there’s two that I like.

My main fancy is JAZEEL for Jedd O’Keeffe.

He was a course-and-distance winner in the Silver Cambridgeshire last year and also won a great battle with Beringer at Sandown in July.

The four-year-old loves these big handicaps and put in some solid performances at Goodwood and Epsom, so I think he’s got a good chance.

The other one I like who is a massive price is LITTLE JO .

He was third behind the aforementioned in the Silver Cambridgeshire and has some solid form coming into the race (1211131).

He is a course specialist, has bottom weight at 8-0 and has Kieran Schofield’s five lb claim on top of that, so I think he’s got a great chance of placing.

Win Double
