Andrew Mount's Racing Tips 30.10.24

Andrew successfully opposed IT’S MAISY (6th) at Bangor on Tuesday and has two recommended bets/trades on Wednesday, October 30th.

FAKENHAM 2.50

JUBILANT is a short price (5-6 best at the time of writing) for this maiden hurdle but James Owen’s five-year-old was beaten at a similar price in a Fontwell bumper when we last saw him, hanging to his right in the straight, and today’s sharp left-handed track is not sure to suit (his sole win came at right-handed Huntingdon). I’m going to take him on with AUTHENTIC LEGACY who ran with credit in two classy bumpers before his runner-up effort to the 120-rated Knight Of Allen in a four-year-old hurdle at Chepstow in the spring. That form was boosted by a subsequent win from the third, while the winner placed at Uttoxeter on his comeback when in need of the outing. Buy in the Sporting Index 50-25-10 market or take a fixed odds price.

Recommendation: Back AUTHENTIC LEGACY in Fakenham 2.50

NOTTINGHAM 3.08

MAKANAH thrives in small fields, recording form of 11212311 (5-8) in fields of seven or fewer runners, and has conditions to suit in this 5f handicap. He’s number 1 on the racecard and rather than buy him in the Sporting Index 50-25-10 market I’m going to sell DOUBLE NUMBER OF WINNER, as the main dangers also have low racecard numbers. CHANGEOFMIND (No. 2) has finished unplaced on his last three starts but those came in Class 2 handicaps, and he only went down by half a length in second place off a 3lb higher mark at Hamilton in August when last contesting a Class 3 handicap. HYPERFOCUS (No. 3) was unable to dominate when down the field from a poor draw at Haydock last time and could easily bounce back.

Recommendation: Sell DOUBLE NUMBER OF WINNER in Nottingham 3.08

Please note that the picks recommended in this blog post are based on past performance and should not be considered a guarantee for future winning outcomes, and it is important to remember that spread betting carries a high level of risk to your capital and can result in losses larger than your initial stake/deposit.
