Horse racing tips: Dave Nevison's best bets for Saturday

It is difficult to see any line of form that warrants this recently gelded three-year-old to be given a rating of 88, and he could be thrown in.

Rivals that he has finished in front of in all his races are now rated in the mid 90’s at least, and the horses he has finished behind include Irish Derby winner Westover.

The obvious concern is his absence since February, but we have become familiar with Godolphin runners returning from similar breaks, with a good number of them running well.

Charlie Appleby will be open about his chances in the press on Saturday morning, and I expect him to say King Of Conquest is fit and ready to go.

Any market strength will also be a positive, and I make him my best bet of the week.

Won on his first start for Charlie Longsdon in September and might just have improvement left in him following his stable switch.

His running style should certainly suit Wetherby, as horses ridden prominently at this track are generally seen to best effect.

A tongue strap, which he wears again here, was a successful call last time and he also has cheekpieces reapplied on Saturday, which may help over this slightly shorter trip.

He was definitely coming to the end of his tether when winning at Warwick last time, so the drop in distance seems a good move, and Lilly Pinchin is having a very good time of things this Autumn riding regularly for Longsdon, while her 3lb claim is very valuable.

The booking of Ryan Moore very much catches the eye here, and Pocket The Profit is potentially a lot better than a rating of 83.

Looking back through the formbook, there has been more than one occasion where he has endured trouble in running, and he also became unbalanced on both his starts at Epsom in June, despite running well.

He definitely could have finished a good bit closer at Catterick last time out, where a poor draw on a course that massively favoured front runners on the day meant he was never competitive.

The three-year-old won at Pontefract in the spring on soft ground and then ran really well at this course where he definitely looked in need of an extra furlong, and probably the softer ground that he will get here.

There is no one better than Ryan Moore at steering a horse through a big field at Newmarket, and his mount has a good chance here granted luck in running.

Nicky Richards has been operating at a strike-rate of 38 per cent in the past fortnight, which augers well for this six-year-old’s fitness on his return to action.

Findthetime looks a really exciting prospect and has been well placed by Richards to win his past three outings, and he was an impressive winner over course and distance when last seen.

He could have gone up more than the 6lb for that that victory in what looked a strong race for the grade. Sean Quinlan, who rode a winner for the yard last weekend, takes over from Brian Hughes here, which isn’t a concern, and neither is the ground deteriorating as his latest success came on heavy.
