Sarab Star

J: Tom Marquand T: J Channon
Race Winner
42/25

Reason for Tip

Talented youngster from the Channon yard who had a good year last year including two wins and a second place here at Kempton. Has looked progressive and better for each run really and more of that is likely today too. Returns after 4 months off and now a four year old and looks absolutely the one to beat in this race today. Well drawn from stall 1 and likely to dictate from the front, if given an easy lead is going to be incredibly tough to peg back. Likes this course, yard are ticking nicely and has a top booking in Tom Marquand who has a fantastic record aboard Channon trained horses. Sarab Star looks the likely winner, not sure anything in this field will better him.

⭐ NAP of the Day

Our NAP of the Day is Sarab Star in the 6.30 at Kempton.

This progressive four-year-old from the Jack Channon yard had a strong campaign last year, recording two wins and a second-place finish at this track, highlighting his liking for Kempton.

He returns here after a short break and still looks open to further improvement. His progressive profile suggests there is more to come, and he could take another step forward today.

The draw in stall 1 is a major positive, likely allowing him to dictate the pace from the front. If he gets an easy lead, he could prove extremely difficult to catch.

The booking of Tom Marquand is another big plus. The jockey has an excellent record when riding for this yard and knows how to get the best out of these types.

With course form, a favourable draw and clear progression, Sarab Star looks the standout selection on Wednesday’s card.

Ballywood

J: Tabitha Worsley T: G Howell
Race Winner
19/2

Reason for Tip

Oldest horse in the field by a fair way is Ballywood at 12 years old. Hasn’t won in seven years but has gone close on a number of occasions including lto and is very well handicapped. Drop in trip today looks a big positive for a horse who’s ran good races lately but tailed off towards the end. Generally runs well at this track and the good ground is favourable for Ballywood. Sometimes in a weak race like the exposed can make a comeback and it’s hard to ignore the mark this 12 year old is now on. Will need the drop in trip to spark for win purposes but should run his race and at 14/1 is more than capable of contesting and does have a change today in the retained blinkers from last time over a trip that should suit. Interesting.

🎯 Dark Horse

Our Dark Horse racing tip is Ballywood in the 4.45 at Huntingdon, currently priced around 14/1.

The twelve-year-old may not have won in some time, but he has been knocking on the door recently, including a solid effort last time out.

He now looks very well handicapped and could be dangerous in a race of this nature.

The key factor today is the drop in trip, which looks a big positive. Ballywood has shaped well in recent runs but has struggled to see out longer distances. This shorter trip could suit perfectly.

He also has a good record at Huntingdon and the better ground conditions will suit him well.

With blinkers retained and a capable jockey in Tabitha Worsley, Ballywood could easily outrun his odds and get involved at the finish.

Kingcormac

J: Taylor Fisher T: J Tickle
Race Winner
11/4

Reason for Tip

Pretty weak looking handicap here in the first at Hereford and despite now being on a career high mark following the win lto, Kingcormac looks the play to be making. Won in very nice style last time and generally runs very well at this course too, including a win back in December here. Trip is within usual firing range and ground is suited, largely reliable type who will make the running, particularly at Hereford. Yard are a small one, but a shrewd one and have been strong lately with a 40% strikerate in the last 30 days and of their three runners in the last couple weeks, two have won. Taylor Fisher retains the ride and Taylor also enjoying regular success at the moment with a 60% strikerate in the last month. Kingcormac is the one to beat.

Kittys Glance

J: Thomas Bellamy T: A King
Race Winner
4/1

Reason for Tip

Small field here in the 3.15 and one who looks capable of a big run at a nice looking price is five year old Kittys Glance. Has been disappointing so far really with form of 380 but has contested a Listed event at Cheltenham and so this company today is much calmer waters. Has been off since December and was both hanging left and jumping freely lto here at Huntingdon. Has had a wind op during the break and should help this youngster along with the fitment of a first time hood which should help her settle and focus. Represents a good yard in strong form and has a solid booking in Tom Bellamy. When combining, yard and jockey enjoy regular success. Kittys Glance is a nicely bred horse who’s definitely better than what we’ve seen, chance is taken on the wind op and hood revealing her true colours and could be heavily involved here.

Vol Royale

J: H Cobden T: K Woollacott
Race Winner
9/2

Reason for Tip

Pretty wide open affair here in the 4.30 and one who looks a very nice proposition today is six year old Vol Royale from the Woollacott yard. Completed a hurdle double two starts ago both here at Hereford before contesting a warm class 3 on handicap debut lto at Chepstow. Didn’t perform great upped in class that day but looks pretty well treated on this step down in grade back into Class 4 company. Goes up in trip by 3f which on pedigree looks fine and potentially even a positive and loves both the ground and track. Lots to like today for a horse from a small but successful yard and Vol Royale has the services of a very good jockey in Harry Cobden. In the last 2 years, when Harry has ridden Woollacott trained horses at Hereford, won 75% of races which is a very favourable statistic. Big chance today for this youngster to return to winning form.

Serenity Dream

J: Rossa Ryan T: A W Carroll
Race Winner
9/4

Reason for Tip

Five year old Serenity Dream can be a little inconsistent as a whole picture but he loves it here at this track. Two wins from three starts at the track and looks nailed on for another big run today. Wasn’t far away lto over C&D when second and remains on a very workable mark. Not the worst draw from stall 6 and this boy is pretty versatile to running position, won at this track from stall 5 previously. Race doesn’t look overly warm and has a decent jockey change today to Rossa Ryan. Rossa has a decent record for this yard and is no stranger to success at this course. Major player.

🍀 Lucky 15 Tips Today

Here are our Lucky 15 selections for Wednesday 18th March:


Kingcormac – 2.00 Hereford (9/4)

Kingcormac looks the one to beat in what appears a weak opening handicap at Hereford.

He won impressively last time out and has a strong record at this track, including a previous win here in December. Despite being on a career-high mark, he still looks well treated.

The horse tends to make the running, which is often a big advantage at Hereford, and the ground conditions suit perfectly.

The yard is in excellent form, operating at around a 40% strike rate in the last 30 days, while jockey Taylor Fisher has also been in flying form.


Kittys Glance – 3.15 Huntingdon (6/1)

Kittys Glance represents the in-form Alan King yard and could be a big improver today.

Her previous form figures of 380 don’t tell the full story, as she has been competing in stronger races, including a Listed event at Cheltenham.

She returns after a break having undergone a wind operation, and the addition of a first-time hood could help her settle and focus better.

Dropping into easier company, she looks capable of showing much more and could go close at a nice price.


Vol Royale – 4.30 Hereford (9/2)

Vol Royale looks a strong contender back at Hereford.

He completed a hurdle double at this track before struggling slightly when stepping up in class on handicap debut at Chepstow.

Now dropping back into Class 4 company, he looks much better placed and could bounce back.

The step up in trip looks suitable based on pedigree, and he clearly enjoys both the track and conditions.

The booking of Harry Cobden is a major positive, particularly given his outstanding record when riding for this yard at Hereford.


Serenity Dream – 7.30 Kempton (9/4)

Serenity Dream has an excellent record at Kempton, with two wins from three starts at the track.

He ran well last time out when second over course and distance, and remains on a very workable mark.

Drawn in stall 6, he has flexibility in how he races tactically, and the booking of Rossa Ryan adds further confidence.

In what looks a fairly modest race, Serenity Dream is a major player once again.
