Bet365: Newmarket - Lingfield preview
Newmarket / BeverleySa May 7This weekend's Channel 4 racing takes in Newmarket and Beverley, with 6 live races in total. The feature race at Newmarket, the Suffolk Handicap, is a new race over the unique Cambridgeshire distance of 1 mile and 1 furlong, and Able Baker Charlie looks the one to be on. He failed to build on last season's excellent second in the Hunt Cup in his two subsequent races but, as a consequence, he's still on a winning handicap mark, only 2lb higher than at Royal Ascot. At Beverley, the best bet looks to be the evergreen sprinter Smokin Beau in the televised 3.30 race. He's sure to appreciate the stiff nature of this track, and looked to be coming back to his best when chasing home Corridor Creeper last time out. Don't forget, if you back the winner in any of the live Channel 4 races, at4/1 or bigger, we'll give you a free bet to the same stake (up to £50) on the next live race. If your free bet also wins at 4/1 or more, have another free bet on the next live race, and so on. Lingfield / HaydockSa May 7Over at Lingfield, the Aidan O'Brien trained Yehudi has the form to win the Derby Trial (2.10). He did not appear on the track until late last season, but had no trouble winning his maiden race at Navan and a listed race at Leopardstown, before running an excellent second in a Group 1 on his final outing. He's 33/1 in our Derby list at the moment and, while he's unlikely to be the stable first string in that race, a win on Saturday would see his price considerably shorten. Over the sticks at Haydock, Genghis will again have the assistance of Tony McCoy when he lines up for the Swinton Hurdle (1.50). Despite going up 10lb for his latest win, the presence of Rooster Booster at the top of the handicap will help to keep the weights down, and he can notch a five-timer.
