Andrew heads to Chelmsford (AW), Thurles and Newcastle (AW) for his three stats-based picks on Thursday, February 22nd. Follow his tips this week and all year round on horse racing betting sites with the lowdown on his latest picks below..
CHELMSFORD 2.05
NOT AFRAID (system – Ralph Beckett, Chelmsford)
Backing all Ralph Beckett-trained runners at Chelmsford would have found 39 winners from 178 bets (21.9% strike-rate) for a profit of £35.28 to a £1 level stake at SP. Young horses (aged two or three) who were drawn in stall 4 or lower had a 23 from 74 record for a profit of £60.63. Three-year-old NOT AFRAID needs to step up on what he’s shown so far but the first-time hood could help and he’s well berthed in stall 3.
THURLES 2.53
WILD HUNT (system – Denis Hogan, handicap chase debut)
DENIS HOGAN has a nine from 40 record with his handicap chase debutants for a profit of £25.35 to a £1 level stake at SP. WILD HUNT was tailed off when unseating on his sole previous chase start but that was in novice company a year ago and, with another season behind him, the seven-year-old is worth chancing on his return to the larger obstacles.
NEWCASTLE 8.30
SIXCOR (system – Linda Perratt, all-weather)
Linda Perratt has a solid recent record on the all-weather, scoring with 22 of her 90 runners since the beginning of 2023 for a profit of £73.25 to a £1 level stake at SP. SIXCOR, one of six representatives for the yard at Newcastle tonight, has a good record in 5f Class 6 all-weather races and will come on for his recent course and distance sixth on his first run for 51 days.
