Mick Fitzgerald’s Saturday ITV Racing suggestions

13:50 Ascot – Iroko
14:05 Haydock – Well-known Bridge
14:25 Ascot – Sturdy Chief
14:40 Haydock – Jilaijone
15:00 Ascot – Threeunderthrufive (Every-Approach)
15:35 Ascot – Favour And Fortune (Every-Approach)

IROKO is the favorite and, in response to the circumstances of the race and his ranking, he ought to win. What he wants is a powerful tempo to purpose at and he’s going to get that. If there was to be a shock, it’s that one of many frontrunners will get away and may’t peg it again, however he ought to win.

Course kind can depend for lots at Haydock, so for that purpose I’m going for FAMOUS BRIDGE. Nicky Richards received out of hospital this week and it could be a stunning tonic for him if this horse have been to go and win the Tommy Whittle, and I don’t see any purpose why he received’t.

He had a very good run at Kelso, that is his monitor as he loves it round there, so he’s the horse for me.

The attention-grabbing horse right here is Credo. For those who have been trying to again one thing at an even bigger worth, it could be him. Chad Bament takes 10lbs off and this he’s 10lbs higher off from final yr’s run in opposition to Well-known Bridge. Added to the jockey’s declare and that makes him harmful.

The important thing to the Lengthy Stroll Hurdle is the leaping. I’ve little question STRONG LEADER is a horse that’s getting higher on a regular basis, however the secret is his leaping. He has made errors and, if something, he goes a little bit left when he jumps, so that may be a little bit of a fear.

Crambo is a horse it’s important to respect. The one factor is, he’s had two runs and seemed sharp by the point he received to the Lengthy Stroll final yr. He hasn’t this yr.

Sturdy Chief is the horse to beat, and I’ll follow him, regardless of considerations about his leaping.

The most secure choice is JILAIJONE. There are query marks about plenty of them in on this race and simply with Jilaijone you’re not guessing.

Victtorino had an excellent run within the previous Hennessy, and if he can minimize out the errors, he could possibly be arduous to beat.

However I’m going to take a punt on an outsider. There’s a little bit little bit of worth right here with THREEUNDERTHRUFIVE (E/W). He runs properly recent, he likes it at Ascot, profitable over course and distance in February and making plenty of the operating. He’s solely 3lbs greater since then, and as an each-way guess, he’s a strong one.

A really beneficial handicap to finish proceedings at Ascot, with the entrance two inserting within the Greatwood, so their likelihood is fairly evident.

The one I like is a really sturdy traveller in FAVOUR AND FORTUNE (E/W). I don’t suppose this horse is badly handled by the handicapper. He’s run some good races, completed sixth within the Supreme Novices Hurdle, and off a mark of 141 he’s an excellent each-way guess. The bottom isn’t going to be unhealthy at Ascot and I feel he’ll address circumstances.
