14:12 – Flat Is Back On Racing TV EBF Fillies’ Restricted Novice Stakes (Bands B, C and D) (GBB Race)
Race Details: 5f | Class 5 | Going: 8.0) (watering) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is the sort of early-season 2yo novice that revolves around the market, and rightly so. Most of these are making their debut, so stable intent and the strength of the yards matter plenty over a sharp 5f at Redcar. Vollering and State Of Gold stand out on paper for powerful connections, while Wopbopaloomop is another obvious player in a race lacking established form. The only runner with experience is Miss Lizzy, but her debut seventh leaves her with something to find despite the obvious scope to improve. On quick ground over the minimum trip, natural speed and professionalism will decide a lot here. It does not look a deep race, but it is still a tricky enough puzzle because the best of the newcomers could be anything.
Top Selections
1. Vollering – 7/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Hollie Doyle | Trainer: Archie Watson | Form: | Rating: | Topspeed:
Archie Watson knows the time of day with sharp juveniles and this filly has been found in a very ordinary restricted novice to start off. That immediately catches the eye. Hollie Doyle is another positive, especially in a race where getting a baby to break and travel matters as much as raw talent. The market has latched on, and for good reason: she looks the one most likely to be ready to do herself justice first time. At 7/4 she is no giveaway, but in a field full of guesswork she is the runner with the fewest questions attached and is hard to oppose. Bet type: Win.
Bet: WIN
2. Wopbopaloomop – 4/1 with Betfair
Jockey: Saffie Osborne | Trainer: Richard Spencer | Form: | Rating: | Topspeed:
If you want to take on the favourite, this is the one who makes most each-way appeal. Richard Spencer can ready a speedy type and the fact she is prominent in the betting for her debut in a race like this suggests connections expect a bold show. Drawn low in stall 2, she could be well placed if breaking on terms, which is often half the battle in Redcar sprints for juveniles. Available at 4/1, she looks the value angle against a shortish market leader, especially with three places on offer in a nine-runner field. She does not need to be a star to hit the frame. Bet type: Each-way.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple: Vollering is the win bet and looks the likeliest winner if ready to roll first time. For a bit more betting value, Wopbopaloomop makes plenty of appeal as the each-way punt at around 4/1. State Of Gold is the obvious danger if the market vibes are right, while Miss Lizzy is respected only for experience rather than what she achieved on debut.

14:42 – Better Value With Racecourse Bookmakers Handicap
Race Details: 7f | Class 6 | Going: 8.0) (watering) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is a fairly ordinary 3yo handicap but not a weak one for the grade, with a few lightly raced types open to better. Worlington is the obvious one after a solid reappearance second and the market has latched onto him, while Fickle McSelfish arrives in good nick after a string of honest efforts and looks sure to be popular despite a wide stall. Hear The Drums ended last season with a win and has the best Topspeed figure in the field, so he is no back number either. Behind the principals, this gets murkier, with the likes of Harswell River, Battenburg Belle and Dalamara all having bits of form that give them a squeak. In a 13-runner Redcar handicap over 7f, draw, track position and who settles best will matter plenty.
Top Selections
1. Worlington – 13/8 with Bet365
Jockey: Pat Cosgrave | Trainer: George Boughey | Form: 988-2 | Rating: 67 | Topspeed:
He is short enough, but there is a reason for that. Worlington shaped much better than the bare result when runner-up on his return, leaving his juvenile efforts behind and suggesting this opening mark of 67 is very workable. Drawn in stall 1, he should be able to get a handy position, which is no bad thing round here, and Boughey’s yard is very good at finding races like this for improving three-year-olds. The slight niggle is the price in a 13-runner handicap, because 13/8 is not exactly buying much forgiveness, but on upside and recent evidence he still sets the standard. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Hear The Drums – 9/1 with Betfair
Jockey: Oisin Orr | Trainer: Richard & Peter Fahey | Form: 08891- | Rating: 66 | Topspeed: 62
If you want something at a more workable each-way price, Hear The Drums makes plenty of appeal. His two-year-old campaign looked patchy until he clicked at the end of the season, and that win was backed up by a field-best Topspeed figure of 62, which is a serious number in this company. He is only 1lb lower than Worlington on official figures and has a much kinder price attached to him at 9/1. From stall 4, Oisin Orr ought to have options, and Fahey runners in northern handicaps are rarely dismissed lightly when the money starts to talk. He looks the value alternative to the favourite. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Worlington is the win bet because he looks the most likely improver and has already advertised that this mark is within reach. For an each-way punt, Hear The Drums appeals at 9/1 with four places on offer and solid speed figures for the grade. Fickle McSelfish is the obvious danger if overcoming stall 13, while Harswell River is not completely dismissed at a bigger price.

15:12 – Watch Racing TV In Stunning HD Handicap
Race Details: 7f | Class 6 | Going: 8.0) (watering) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is the sort of Redcar handicap that can make fools of plenty, with 14 runners, a compressed handicap and several arriving with bits and pieces of form rather than bombproof credentials. Perfidia heads the market after a solid reappearance third and that effort gives her obvious claims from a handy low draw, while One Of Our Own and Tickets also come here on the back of respectable recent runs. Looks Fantastic is interesting for a yard that can spark one back to life, and Far Ahead is dangerously well treated if ever rediscovering his old pace figures. Even so, this is not a deep race and a few of these have had plenty of chances. In a contest where track position and timing will matter, siding with recent sharpness looks the sensible play.
Top Selections
1. Perfidia – 10/3 with Bet365
Jockey: David Allan | Trainer: Tim Easterby | Form: 3697-3 | Rating: 74 | Topspeed: 66
Perfidia makes the most appeal because she comes here off the strongest recent piece of form in the field, having shaped well when third on her return. That suggested she has trained on, and in a race full of doubtful finishers and exposed handicappers, that matters. She is effectively near the foot of the weights despite the top rating in the line-up, which is always worth noting in these low-grade sprints around a bendless track like Redcar. David Allan is a solid booking for this yard and stall 3 should help her hold a sensible position. At 10/3 she is no giveaway, but she still looks the one they all have to beat.
Bet: WIN
2. One Of Our Own – 7/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Hollie Doyle | Trainer: Rebecca Menzies | Form: 6534-4 | Rating: 73 | Topspeed: 68
One Of Our Own looks the each-way value in a race where plenty can be given a squeak but not many can be trusted. He returned with a perfectly fair fourth, which fits nicely with the consistent enough profile he showed at the back end of last year, and he has the sort of mark that keeps him competitive in this grade. Hollie Doyle catches the eye in the saddle and this is the type of horse she can get rolling from a wideish draw without overcomplicating things. He does not need to improve much to hit the frame again, and 7/1 looks fair in a race paying four places.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Perfidia is the win play because she has the clearest recent form and fewer questions than most. For an each-way punt, One Of Our Own makes plenty of appeal at the prices with four places on offer. The obvious dangers are Tickets, who arrives in form, and Looks Fantastic, who could take a step forward second time up for Michael Appleby.

15:42 – racingtv.com Handicap
Race Details: 7f | Class 3 | Going: 8.0) (watering) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is a tight little 7f handicap rather than a deep one, but it is still a race where the market should have plenty to say. Skipper heads the betting on his first run for Hamad Al Jehani and that alone makes him interesting, while Jolly Roger brings the most solid recent profile after a string of good efforts in similar company. Double Parked is another with a likeable profile off a handy weight, and Sea Legend arrives in form if this rise in grade doesn’t catch him out. At the other end, horses like New Image and Cadarn have the ability to get involved if bouncing back, but both come here with something to prove. Overall, it looks a tricky enough puzzle where sharp current form and race fitness may prove decisive.
Top Selections
1. Jolly Roger – 4/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Harry Davies | Trainer: Simon & Ed Crisford | Form: 3-2623 | Rating: 100 | Topspeed: 96
He is not exactly hiding from the assessor, but Jolly Roger has been running like a winner waiting to happen. That recent sequence of 2-6-2-3 tells its own story: he keeps turning up, keeps running to a solid level and his Topspeed mark of 96 is one of the better pieces of evidence on offer here. The wide draw in 9 is not ideal around Redcar, yet in a nine-runner field Harry Davies should still be able to get him into a sensible rhythm. This looks the percentage call because he arrives match-fit, reliable and proven in this sort of company. At 4/1, he makes most appeal as the win play.
Bet: WIN
2. Sea Legend – 17/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Lauren Young | Trainer: Jim Goldie | Form: 431831 | Rating: 100 | Topspeed: 95
Sea Legend is the one that appeals as the each-way play because he comes here in proper nick and is clearly thriving. That recent form line is hard to knock, and the latest win showed he still knows how to get the job done when things fall right. He has to prove he can carry that momentum into a stronger Class 3, but a racing weight of 116 catches the eye straight away and his Topspeed of 95 says he is not out of place on raw numbers either. Jim Goldie’s runners can keep rolling when they hit form, and 17/2 looks fair for an each-way punt in a race with a few doubts among the principals.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Jolly Roger is the solid win bet given his consistency and match fitness, even if the draw asks a question. For each-way purposes, Sea Legend makes more appeal than some of the shorter ones because he is in form, well treated at the weights and should give you a run for your money. Skipper is the obvious danger on stable debut, while Double Parked also looks a serious player.

Race Details: 1m 2f | Class 3 | Going: 8.0) (watering) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick) | | flat
This is only a four-runner novice, but it revolves around a pair with sharply different profiles. Mr Colonel brings the standout achieved form by some distance, his mark of 107 towering over these after strong efforts in much deeper company last year. Bay Of Myths is the interesting alternative, having made a winning start and now stepping into a race where natural improvement could make things tighter than the betting suggests. According To Mark is no back number for a yard that places them well, though he needs to come forward from his sole run, while Heathers Feather looks outclassed on what we have seen. In truth, this is not much of a puzzle: if Mr Colonel handles the return and this extra yardage, he sets a clear standard.
Top Selections
1. Mr Colonel – 4/5 with Bet365
Jockey: Shane Gray | Trainer: Richard & Peter Fahey | Form: 225- | Rating: 107 | Topspeed: 96
Mr Colonel is hard to get away from in a race lacking depth. A mark of 107 in this company is a major edge, and his juvenile form figures of 225 tell you he was holding his own in far stronger contests than this. The 96 Topspeed also underlines that he has already run to a level these rivals may simply not reach. Fahey’s colt sets the standard on everything we know, and while odds-on in a four-runner race is never thrilling, 4/5 is fair enough given the class gap. If he has trained on from two to three, this should be his race. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple: Mr Colonel is the win bet and the obvious one to beat. In a four-runner field there is no each-way angle worth forcing, so this is a straight win-only play. Bay Of Myths is the danger if improving plenty from her debut success, but the proven level of Mr Colonel makes him the solid option.

16:50 – Every Race Live On Racing TV Handicap
Race Details: 1m 2f | Class 5 | Going: 8.0) (watering) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick) | | flat
This looks a competitive little nine-runner handicap rather than a deep one, with most of the focus likely to centre on the unexposed 4yos. Nicator has been knocking on the door and is the obvious starting point after a sequence of placed efforts, while Hill O Rue signs off last season on the back of a win and remains the type to do better at this sort of trip. Imperial Trooper arrives in form too and should make his presence felt if building on that recent third. Mafting has the best topspeed figure in the field and James Doyle is an eye-catching booking, but his profile is a bit more frustrating. In truth, this is a race where fitness, tactical position and who handles the quick ground best may count for plenty.
Top Selections
1. Nicator – 11/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Benoit De La Sayette | Trainer: Kevin Philippart De Foy | Form: 622- | Rating: 86 | Topspeed: 61
Nicator makes plenty of appeal in a race where there are questions attached to most of his rivals. He ended last season with form figures of 6-2-2-2, which tells its own story: reliable, holding his level well and shaping like a winner waiting to happen. Drawn in stall 2, he should get a sensible trip, and this yard is more than capable of placing one to strike in a race of this nature. He does not arrive with the flashiest topspeed figure, but the consistency is hard to ignore and 11/4 looks fair rather than stingy in this company. He is the one I would want on side.
Bet: WIN
2. Hill O Rue – 9/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Oisin McSweeney | Trainer: Kevin Ryan | Form: 31541- | Rating: 86 | Topspeed: 68
Hill O Rue looks the value each-way play, especially for a stable that can ready one after a break. He ended his campaign with a win and his overall profile suggests there could still be a bit more to come from this 4yo now settling into handicaps. Carrying just 124, he gets in here with a handy racing weight against some higher-rated but less convincing rivals, and that could matter if this turns tactical. The bare figures say he belongs, and unlike a few in here he arrives with some upward momentum rather than trying to rediscover it. At 9/2, he makes plenty of each-way sense in a race where the places look very reachable.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Nicator is the win bet because he brings the most solid recent profile and looks set for another big run. Hill O Rue is the each-way option at a workable price, with his low weight and last-time-out win making him attractive for the frame at least. Mafting and Imperial Trooper are the main dangers if returning or progressing as hoped.

Race Details: 5f | Class 6 | Going: 8.0) (watering) (Good to firm, good in places (goingstick) | | flat
This looks a fairly ordinary three-year-old sprint to close the card, but that does not make it straightforward. A few arrive with something to prove and several are still lightly raced enough to think there is a bit more to come. Belling The Cat sets the standard on official figures and comes here off a solid second, while Watchdog has already won a handicap and is entitled to strip fitter for his latest run. Auspicious is another with a low draw and recent encouragement, so the pace and track position could be important over this sharp 5f. By contrast, horses like Miss Boyd and Muvable need a chunk of improvement. It is not a deep race, but it is the sort where one of the more streetwise handicappers should come out on top.
Top Selections
1. Belling The Cat – 10/3 with Bet365
Jockey: Andrew Mullen | Trainer: Tony Coyle & Kaine Wood | Form: 66-62 | Rating: 72 | Topspeed: 39
He looks the percentage call. Belling The Cat is the highest-rated horse in the field and his return to form when second last time was just about the best recent piece of form on offer here. That run suggested he is ready to win a race of this nature, and in a Class 6 he does not need to find much more. Andrew Mullen knows how to deliver one late in these northern sprints and this colt has the profile of a runner who should be sharper again for that reappearance. At 10/3 he is not exactly missed, but he still makes plenty of appeal in a race lacking depth. Bet: WIN
2. Gunalt Wavelength – 12/1 with Paddy Power
Jockey: Joanna Mason | Trainer: Michael & David Easterby | Form: 54229- | Rating: 68 | Topspeed: 65
He is the price play. Gunalt Wavelength did not get his head in front last season, but there was consistency in that profile and his Topspeed figure of 65 is notably strong for a race at this level. He signed off with a second and two fourths in handicaps, which says he has enough ability to be competitive off 68 if ready to go after the break. Joanna Mason is a positive booking for this sort of test and the yard often has them fit enough to do themselves justice early in the season. With 12/1 available, he looks a fair each-way punt in a race where a few shorter in the betting have questions to answer. Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Belling The Cat is the solid win play given his rating edge and pleasing latest second. For those wanting a bit more value, Gunalt Wavelength appeals each-way at double-figure odds on the strength of last season’s handicap efforts and his standout Topspeed figure. Watchdog and Auspicious are the obvious dangers if either gets a clean run and improves again.
