BETTING EXPLAINED
Select your horse. Note their name and saddlecloth number
Choose your bet. ‘To win’ or ‘each-way’ are popular types of bet.
‘To win’ is for your horse to come first.
‘Each-way’ is for your horse to come first or to be placed. It’s two bets, so ‘£2 each-way’ = £4 total bet.
Decide the amount – or stake – you are comfortable to bet.
Place your bet. There are different places to bet on course; The Tote, racecourse bookmakers, betting shop or online. Each option offers a different experience.
Collect. Once ‘Weighed-in’ has been announced, present your betting slip and collect any winnings.

LOOK TO THE STARS looked potentially useful when pulling clear with the winner at Haydock on debut last month and sets a clear standard Oxagon shaped as if needing the experience when fifth in a strong-looking maiden at Newmarket and rates the main threat with improvement forthcoming, while Brotherhood of Man is another who has shown enough in 2 outings to suggest he can win one of these.

BINTSHUAA has shown improved form switched to handicaps for her new yard this season and a 3lb rise for her win at Ffos Las may underestimate her. Earthwatch is another who’s made a much bigger impact since handicapping and is the obvious threat having gone close at Newbury 12 days ago

POSTRIDER shaped well on her belated return when third at Lingfield recently, making her effort in a different part of the track to those who beat her, and may come on for the run with blinkers added. Live Each Day kept on well when runner-up at Haydock despite meeting trouble, while Star of Dubai is worth another chance back on a less-extreme surface.
