Angus McNae's tips: Sky Bet Sunday Series bets + Naas selections
By Angus McNae
Last Updated: Sun 19 May 2024
Racing TV presenter Angus McNae shares his top tips for the Sky Bet Sunday Series at Newmarket plus also has two fancies at Naas.
The Sky Bet Sunday series continues this weekend, and is staged at Newmarket for the first time. I have two selections from there, and two from an excellent card at Naas. Enjoy both meetings live on Racing TV.
2.50 Naas: Barnavara
Angus McNae
Finished: 4thSP: 3/1
Jessica Harrington could not have her team in better form and this filly made a winning debut at the Curragh 11 days ago.
She won impressively that day, quickening well to storm clear of her rivals and win by four lengths under only hands and heels riding.
She is immediately stepped up to a Grade Three here and could easily be a Royal Ascot filly should she win what is a decent looking juvenile contest.
3.55 Naas: Bucanero Fuerte
Angus McNae
Finished: 1stSP: 2/1
This three-year-old makes his seasonal reappearance after developing into a very useful two-year-old last year.
He won the Group Two Railway Stakes at the Curragh and the Group One Phoenix Stakes, also at the Curragh.
He then went on to finish third in the National Stakes where he found seven furlongs on soft ground to be too much of a test of stamina.
He drops back in trip here and despite the fact that he carries a penalty, he can dominate his rivals on his way to a tilt at a Group One at Royal Ascot.
5.15 Newmarket: Double Time
Angus McNae
Finished: 4thSP: 7/4
This horse has fallen in the weights recently and looked to be coming back to form last time out at Yarmouth where he was narrowly beaten.
That effort was over a mile and this free-going sort will be suited by the return to seven furlongs.
This track, which suits front-running horses, should be ideal and jockey Oisin Murphy knows him well.
Everything looks to be in place for a big run.
5.45 Newmarket: Jehangeer
Angus McNae
Finished: 3rdSP: 9/1
Kevin Ryan has an exciting prospect on his hands with this youngster, and he could develop into a very useful sprinting three-year-old.
He is a full-brother to Group One winner Hello Youmzain and showed plenty in four starts as a two-year-old.
He won his maiden at Ayr before being stepped up in grade where he was found out twice due to his lack of experience.
Physically, he looked like a type to make big strides this year and this is a suitable starting point for him.
