The Punt Daily: Robbie Wilders' horse racing tip at Haydock on Wednesday

EACH-WAY PLAY

Blaklion (2.50 Haydock)

The handicapper has surely underestimated Blaklion by dropping him 4lb for his comeback run at Bangor and he makes plenty of appeal in the veterans' handicap chase at Haydock off a career-low mark of 131. This time last year he was rated 149 and he would have needed his return behind the thriving Snow Leopardess, when he showed up well for a long way before fading into fifth. Saturday's Becher Chase was his key early-season target according to Dan Skelton's Racing Post stable tour but he has not been entered for that contest and this one looks much more winnable. He has won at the course before and while he is 12 and past his best, his sixth in the Grand National two starts back off 14lb higher suggests he hasn't fallen out of love with the game just yet.
