Leading horse racing advisor Andrew Mount is a contributor to the Racing Post, Racing Post Weekender, Racing & Football Outlook and the GG.co.uk website. Andrew uses stats and systems to find value bets and shares his latest thoughts below.
Andrew heads to Haydock, Sandown, Southwell and Ripon for his five stats-based selections on Saturday, April 29th. Follow his tips this week and all year round on horse racing betting sites with the lowdown on his latest picks below:
HAYDOCK 2.05
BRIAN THE SNAIL (system – class barrier)
Veteran BRIAN THE SNAIL has form figures of 111314087 (4-9) in Class 4 or lower company and though unplaced in both runs last year, he didn’t fare badly over 5f here in September on his return from a year off. He’s back from another break today but probably doesn’t deserve to be the 50-1 outsider of the field and is worth a small each-way interest.
RIPON 2.25
INVINCIBLE FRIEND (system -Tom Dascombe, restricted novice stakes)
Tom Dascombe is six from 21 with his runners in restricted novice company and backing them blind would have returned a profit of £23.66 to a £1 level stake at SP. Newcomer INVINCIBLE FRIEND is a big price but could be worth chancing to small stakes.
SANDOWN 3.25
HONNEUR D’ANJONC (system – course direction)
The Jane Williams-trained HONNEUR D’ANJONC pulled up at Newbury last time out but he has a poor record on left-handed tracks and that run is easily forgiven. His record right-handed reads 2F9121211421 (5-12) and he could provide some value in an open contest.
SANDOWN 4.00
CALL ME LORD (system – course expert)
Ten-year-old Sandown expert CALL ME LORD rarely runs a bad race at the Esher venue, recording form figures of 11213236322 (3-11). He was the 14-1 outsider of five at the time of writing and looks worth an each-way punt at those sort of odds.
HAYDOCK 4.55
CONGRESBURY (system – Richard Hannon, first-time blinkers, handicaps only)
Since the beginning of 2015, Richard Hannon is 17 from 140 (12.1% strike-rate) with first-time blinkered runners in handicaps for a profit of £74.50 to a £1 level stake at SP. His most recent qualifier was a 25-1 Southwell winner in January and perhaps CONGRESBURY can follow suit.
