TIP TOP CAT is clearly in good form at present and I can’t see any reason why he can’t go in again today at Huntingdon. He’s at the right end of the handicap to not worry about winning this Pertemps qualifier and then consequently blowing his handicap mark for the main race itself, which some of these will be thinking about. Liam Harrison gets a fair tune out of him and his ceiling may not have been found just yet.
Huntingdon 3.10 Tip Top Cat
Saturday
GALAHAD QUEST has run some good races around here this season without placing but the forecast good ground might just enhance his chances tomorrow. He’s a hold up merchant so the fractions have to be right but he did look to get slightly stuck in the mud last time out and his previous form suggests he may prefer a sounder surface. He has a lovely racing weight tomorrow and I think he has a great chance.
Thankfully the race organisers have managed to rearrange the Alan Swinbank Mares listed bumper as I have a strong fancy for MULLENBEG. Milton Harris £42k purchase hosed up at Ludlow on debut and it was one of those performances which really took my attention. Visually it looked very good and if in the same form I think she goes close here.
The Skybet Chase looks as competitive as ever but if this race was made for a horse it would be DEMACHINE. Kerry Lee’s exciting stayer was very unfortunate to unseat last time out at Ludlow but can put that behind him today. 3 miles on good ground should be right up his street and the Kerry Lee stable seems to have picked up in recent weeks which gives you plenty of hope that he can go well tomorrow which his form entitles him to.
Cheltenham 1.55 – Galahad Quest
Cheltenham 4.25 – Mullenbeg
Doncaster 3.20 – Demachine
