Friday’s Horse Racing Tips: Newbury, March 3rd

Today’s Horse Racing Tips – March 3rd
There are five meetings in Britain and Ireland on Friday, with competitive jumps action from Doncaster and Newbury certain to attract the vast majority of the betting activity. The drying ground has significantly reduced field sizes, although watering should mitigate the worst of the exceptionally dry spell of weather. For AW fans there is action from Dundalk, Lingfield and Newcastle , with the lights coming on at 5.15pn at the latter venue.

Today’s Daily Nap
Diamond Egg
Newbury 2:15 (UK time)
Chris Gordon has his team in blistering form at the moment, and this unexposed bumper winner is fancied to get off the mark at the third time of asking at Newbury on Friday. He unseated his rider early on his hurdling debut at Plumpton, but showed a lot more in a muddling small field here last time out, and perhaps a switch to front-running by Tom Cannon could see him dominate these rivals on the quickening ground.
Odds: NA
Today’s Value Angle
Sashenka
Newbury 1:40 (UK time)
This consistent mare looks worth another try over 2m4f after finishing a creditable second behind Progressive last time out (seemingly tapped at a sharp 2m), and this flat track on decent ground should suit ideally under regular 3lb claimer Ben Ffrench-Davis. She is a versatile performer who mixes the all-weather and hurdling, with a career record of 1 from 10 in this sphere, and has been found a weak looking class 4 handicap for the grade here.
Odds: NA
Odds are best odds available as at 2am March 3rd 2023. Odds may now differ.
