1.50 Sandown: Words Of Truth
Tipster: Graham Clark.
Best odds: 3-1.
Taking on established sprinters is no easy task for a three-year-old, however Words Of Truth looks up to the task.
Although suffering a shock odds-on reversal on his comeback in a six furlong conditions race at Meydan in January, it was a defeat that suggested a drop back in trip could suit.
The switch to five furlongs in a Listed event over course and distance last month was vindicated in the manner of a young sprinter that could be set for good things.
While he will have to improve again to back up that win there was nothing to suggest that he couldn’t given his finishing effort last time out.
3.15 Newmarket: Klassleader
Tipster: Dave Nevison and Harry Allwood.
Best odds: 6-4.
Dave Nevison
Finished: 7thSP: 6/5
Dave says: I was so impressed with Klassleader’s win at York in May that I have made him my firm favourite to win the Sky Bet Ebor in August, and have backed him accordingly.
I half expected him to head straight there, thus preserving his handicap mark as his win meant he was guaranteed a slot in the York showpiece.
Haggas has clearly decided his four-year-old needs another run, and this rearranged Betway Old Newton Cup looks the perfect stepping stone.
He has been raised 8lb for that convincing win, but I am confident Klassleader has tons more improvement in him, and is still very well handicapped (his dam was a late-maturing type who was rated 113).
Although he will definitely benefit from the step up to the Sky Bet Ebor trip, I think he has enough ability to win again over 1m4f. Certainly, if he can’t win this, my ante-post York punt might be fanciful!
3.35 Sandown: Gethin
Tipster: Gavin Beech.
Best odds: 9-2.
As a collaboration of global Totes, World Pool enables bettors from all over the globe to bet into a single pool, the result being enormous liquidity, and a multi-million pound betting experience. Due to the dynamic nature of the pool, customers can receive higher pay outs than they would receive with bookmakers. In the UK, the Tote operates Tote Guarantee which means the UK and Irish pools will always match or exceed the industry Starting Price (SP) on Win bets.
Gavin Beech
Finished: 5thSP: 4/1
Three-year-olds have won the past five renewals of the Coral-Eclipse, four of which have been trained by Aidan O’Brien, so Gethin faces no easy task in his bid to strike back for the older brigade.
However, it’s arguable that Gethin brings the strongest piece of form into this race and there is stacks of scope for even better still, after just six starts.
His neck second to the mighty Ombudsman in the Brigadier Gerard Stakes is red-hot form even though he was getting 7lb from the winner.
Gethin stuck to his task admirably despite having raced quite freely through the early stages of that contest and the front two pulled three lengths clear of third-placed Almeric. World Pool will be in operation for Saturday's Eclipse at Sandown Park!
3.44 Naas: Wo Wo Never (e/w)
Tipster: Johnny Ward
Best odds: 25-1.
Johnny Ward
Finished: 6thSP: 22/1
Looks as good an each-way bet as I've seen for some time at the 25-1 on offer, at the time of writing.
It is hard to overstate how green he looked at Gowran Park, when shaping with plenty of promise in third behind a good stablemate last time out, and I cannot see how another stablemate (One Number) is 3-1, and he is 25-1, with One Number's Curragh form not really working out, plus he produced a laboured effort at Royal Ascot when last seen.
A son of Wootton Bassett out of a smart mare, this colt could yet prove to be very good.
5.10 Beverley: Glenfinnan
Tipster: Martin Dixon.
Best odds: 6-1.
Martin Dixon
Finished: 2ndSP: 10/3
Regular readers will know I was with Glenfinnan when he won at Beverley earlier this year, and I like the set up for him again back at this track.
He's a talented handicapper on his day, still very well treated on his best form, and he should get a perfect tow into this race behind a strong gallop from stall one.
His record on stiff, right-handed tracks is very good, and his latest effort in the competitive Stablemate By Agma Carlisle Bell Handicap showed that he remains in top form.
