Saturday tips: Alex Scott has three best bets at Haydock

This half-brother to Frankel opened up as favourite on his reappearance in the Spring Trophy over course and distance last time out but was easy to back after connections were open about the fact he would need the run.

Nevertheless, he was only beaten two lengths by the re-opposing Alyanaabi that day, who was clearly fit having been backed off the boards, and this horse is over three times the price.

He was unlucky in a Grade One at Keeneland in the Autumn and finished a short head behind Haatem in the Jersey Stakes, and has Oisin Murphy back aboard this time.

There are plenty of horses in this race making their reappearance or with a preference for soft ground, so if Kikkuli comes on plenty for his run last time, which I believe he will, then he rates a great each-way bet in this race at odds of 14-1.
