Harry Wilson had a 13-2 winner at York and he now tackles the Racing League at Newcastle
Harry Wilson found a 13-2 winner on the day two of the Ebor festival and is back with his advice for the Racing League meeting at Newcastle in the evening...
Racing League: Newcastle
Harry's tip: Abraaj
Abraaj has been steadily progressive on the all-weather this year, winning at Newcastle, Lingfield and Kempton, and produced a career-best RPR on the Flat when beaten just half a length by a course specialist at Chelmsford last time. He could take advantage of this big drop in class off a mark just 1lb higher.
Harry's tip: Natzor
Natzor bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when beaten a neck at Thirsk last time, form that has been boosted by the winner going in again since. His last win came over course and distance and a 3lb rise may not stop him going one better here.
Harry's tip: Mattice
Mattice signalled he may be about to strike in a much better race at Ripon last time, showing up well for a long way over 6f before weakening in the final furlong. He's run well on both visits to Newcastle, finishing a narrow second in the Racing League in 2022 and a close fourth in the Gosforth Park Cup in June, and is well handicapped if he can build on last time.
Harry's tip: Who's Glen
Who's Glen has had just three starts, staying on to be placed in three all-weather novices. The one who beat him on his debut has twice gone close in handicaps off 77, so the mark seems fair, and he's sure to improve for the extra distance here.
Harry's tip: Benacre
Lough Leane loves the all-weather and will go well again but I'll take chance on Benacre, who has yet to win on an artificial surface but has recorded three of his top four RPRs on the synthetics, including over course and distance. He's just 1lb higher than his last winning mark and could take some pegging back.
Harry's tip: Thunder Blue
Thunder Blue benefited from the drop in class when winning a Racing League handicap at Wolverhampton and ran well enough in the Shergar Cup last time, when having to make her challenge away from the first and second, to suggest she could go in again returned to the all-weather and down into a Class 3.
Harry's tip: Cloud Cover
Cloud Cover put up one of the best performances at Newcastle on All-Weather Championships finals day, scything through the field on the bridle to win a 7f handicap going away, and was only just denied a Listed success at Chelmsford on her reappearance, when having to challenge on the inside rail after being awkwardly away from the stalls. She still has plenty more to offer and could still be underestimated by this mark returned to a handicap.
