Saturday’s Horse Racing Tips: Newbury, Newcastle, November 30th
Today’s Racing Tips – November 30th
Saturday’s ITV cameras bring the best of the action from Newbury and Newcastle, with a terrific mix of classy Graded racing alongside some fiendishly competitive handicaps on the prevailing soft ground.
In this article:
Today’s Daily Nap
BROADWAY BOY
Newbury 3.00 (UK time)
Nigel Twiston-Davies chaser is entitled to sharpen up fitnesswise for his first run of the season at Cheltenham in October, and his relentless galloping run style should be well suited by Newbury on soft ground. He is best dominating and getting into a relentless grinding rhythm on the lead, and Sam Twiston-Davies will be looking to take these rivals out of their comfort zone from an early stage.
Odds: 9.00
Today’s Value Angle
BRENTFORD HOPE
Newcastle 2.10 (UK time)
Harry Derham’s smooth traveller has race-fitness on his side in a small field for this Grade 1 prize, and his turn of foot should be a potent weapon under Paul O’Brien. The rain easing the ground in the past week has come in his favour, and his race-fitness should count for plenty against his main market rival.
Odds: 3.50
ITV Racing Tips – Saturday November 30th
Time (UK) | Track | Horse | Analysis |
---|---|---|---|
1:54 | Newbury | ISSAM | Tom Symonds has a cracking team of young horses to go to war with this season, and his useful five time winning handicapper is entitled to sharpen up for the run at Ffos Las on his return. That form has been well franked by the runner-up Steel Ally winning at Haydock last Saturday and, with the yard now firing in the winners (2 in the last fortnight), he should go well here with conditions to suit under Jordan Nailor. |
2:10 | Newcastle | BRENTFORD HOPE | “Harry Derham’s smooth traveller has race-fitness on his side in a small field for this Grade 1 prize, and his turn of foot should be a potent weapon under Paul O’Brien. The rain easing the ground in the past week has come in his favour, and his race-fitness should count for plenty against his main market rival. |
2:25 | Newbury | CASTELFORT | Jane Williams unexposed handicapper looks on a very handy mark on this seasonal reappearance, and should go really close under David Noonan (with conditions to suit and the yard hitting form after a quiet start to the jumps season proper). |
3:00 | Newbury | BROADWAY BOY | .Nigel Twiston-Davies chaser is entitled to sharpen up fitnesswise for his first run of the season at Cheltenham in October, and his relentless galloping run style should be well suited by Newbury on soft ground. He is best dominating and getting into a relentless grinding rhythm on the lead, and Sam Twiston-Davies will be looking to take these rivals out of their comfort zone from an early stage. |
3:20 | Newcastle | THE CHANGING MAN | Joe Tizzard has his team in terrific form with 8 winners in the last 14 days at a remarkable 30pc strike rate, and his progressive chaser looks a very interesting runner here from the foot of the weights under Brendan Powell. He was going strongly when falling at the 16th on his seasonal reappearance at Wincanton behind Al Dancer, and can gain compensation here if that has not left a mark. |
3:35 | Newbury | BEAU BALKO | Paul Nicholls progressive chaser stripped fitter for the run when winning at Wincanton last time out, and he can defy a small rise up the weights at Newbury on Saturday. His sound jumping should be a real asset over these demanding fences, and the switch to a left handed track is a definite plus under Harry Cobden. |
