Newbury Placepot picks: Paul Kealy has three bankers for the evening card

Newbury is the preferred Placepot meeting as you can just about get at least two places in every race, which cannot be said for Doncaster or Sandown.

The opener (6.08) is a tricky enough amateur riders' race, but went close at Chepstow last week and Simon Walker has won on him before.

He goes in with , whose best recent run came in the hands of Matthew Wilson.

There may be one or two useful newcomers in the next (6.38), but there will need to be three very good ones to keep out of the frame and she is banker material.

is favourite for the third (7.08) and due to go up 3lb after just failing when well backed last time. He was well clear with the winner and should go close again.

is another who looks likely to be a short price and hard to beat in the next (7.38) under a penalty for a runaway win last time, while and are the two I like most in a tight fifth (8.08).

The last (8.38) is even tighter but has been running well and hails from an in-form stable, while also shaped nicely when not getting the best of runs last time.
