The Punt Acca: Robbie Wilders' three horse racing tips on Saturday

Safe Voyage(3.36 Ascot)

The handicapper has a knack of dropping veterans quickly nowadays and Safe Voyage almost managed to take advantage off his lowest mark in four and a half years at Leopardstown last time. While Safe Voyage fell short by half a length off 97 that day, he was drawn widest of all in stall 19 and can be upgraded as he was held up in a race it paid to be handy. The nine-year-old clearly likes testing conditions and the straight course at Ascot (third in the Group 1 QEII three years ago on heavy) and could roll back the years in this 7f handicap.

Noble Heidi (4.00 Longchamp)

This German-trained filly looks massively overpriced with conditions to suit in the Prix Dollar for Peter Schiergen. Noble Heidi ran out a dominant eight-and-a-half-length scorer on her first start for the yard following a 395-day break in a Baden-Baden Listed race on soft in August last time, and her previous run on that ground yielded a narrow victory over smart renowned mud-lover Novemba. Arrives in great form and admittedly this is a different kettle of fish, but the third from her previous race came out and scored easily since and Noble Heidi deserves plenty of respect from a decent draw in stall one.

Triple Time (4.35 Longchamp)

Unexposed type who looked a top-notch prospect at two and returned from a year off with an impressive victory from a couple of decent yardsticks at Haydock in the Group 3 Superior Mile in September. Well worth this step up to Group 2 company in the Prix Daniel Wildenstein and related to six horses who recorded RPRs of at least 107. Will relish this testing ground and could yet emerge as one of the standout three-year-olds of his generation for Kevin Ryan.
