Andrew Mount's Best Bets - Thursday, August 19

Top tipster Andrew Mount has two bets at Chepstow and York on Thursday


VICTORIOUS NIGHT – (4.25 Chepstow, 1.5pts each-way – 11/2)

VICTORIOUS NIGHT was only a three-length fourth when the 9-4 favourite for an apprentice handicap at Salisbury last week but he raced on the ‘dead’ rail from the worst of the draw in stall 1 of 7. It was a big advantage to race wide that day and five of the seven apprentice jockeys clocked on and had their mounts positioned in the middle of the track.

Liam Browne on Victorious Night was one of two exceptions, with the other (the Hannah Fraser-ridden 4-1 shot Siberian Night) beaten over 12 lengths into sixth. Victorious Night is back in maiden company here and will be hard to keep out of the frame.

SEPARATE – (5.20 York, 1pt each-way – 20/1)

SEPARATE, visored for the first-time, looks interesting now headgear goes back on for the first time since she switched from Richard Hannon’s yard. Blinkers brought about improvement for her previous trainer and the drop back to 7f looks a good idea.

She was an eyecatcher at Nottingham back in April on her stable debut, doing second best of those to come from off the pace in a fillies’ handicap won by Sir Michael Stoute’s Lights On, whose mark has since shot up from 85 to 108. Separate, rated 88 that day, has dropped to a mark of 80 after three modest efforts but two of those came on unsuitably soft ground and the other at Royal Ascot where she struggled to see out the mile trip in the Kensington Palace Stakes. She ran well over inadequate trips in both previous course outings and is worth chancing at a big price.
