Sunday’s racing across Britain brings together a fascinating mix of proven handicappers, rising stars, and horses looking to build on recent momentum. Plumpton provides the stage for two of the key legs in this Sunday’s horse racing accumulator, featuring runners with serious long-term potential in hurdles, while Southwell adds an all-weather handicap where a fast-improving youngster will attempt to confirm his upward curve.
The focus of this multiple bet is not simply about picking favourites, but instead highlighting value selections who each arrive at their assignments with conditions to suit and profiles that suggest further progress. Jet Patrol bids to bounce back from a rare blip, Howth aims to continue his prolific summer with another hurdle success, and Tanjen lines up at Southwell as one of the season’s most progressive handicappers. Together, they make up a well-balanced accumulator for Sunday, combining proven ability, tactical angles, and upward momentum.

Reasoning This accumulator blends three horses with distinct strengths: Jet Patrol looks primed to rebound from a tactical defeat, Howth continues his winning spree with higher targets in sight, and Tanjen’s rapid progress makes him a standout at Southwell. Together, they provide balance, proven form, and upward momentum for Sunday’s multiple. |
14:50 Plumpton – Jet Patrol
John Pentin; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Jet Patrol began his career with James Owen in striking fashion when defeating a subsequent winner at Stratford, which immediately stamped him as a recruit of some promise. That effort showcased his stamina and resilience, as he overcame testing circumstances to score on his stable debut. Expectations were naturally high when he reappeared at the same venue as a heavily backed 4-5 favourite, but the race proved a frustrating one.

On that occasion, he was dropped out at the rear and faced a near-impossible task to claw back ground on rivals who enjoyed the run of the race from the front. While the disappointment was obvious, it was more a case of circumstances than a true reflection of his ability. Returning now at Plumpton, the track’s sharper configuration and more tactical nature should suit his preference for travelling into contention before being delivered late.
Crucially, he retains the mark that saw him win on debut for his new yard, and with connections confident of his readiness, there is a strong case for expecting a rebound performance. Against this line-up, which lacks his proven quality, Jet Patrol looks poised to remind punters of the ability he displayed on first sight. His chance to atone for last time’s reversal is there for the taking.
15:50 Plumpton – Howth
Herrin Kendrick; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Howth has been a revelation since being switched to hurdles, and his record this season speaks volumes: four victories from five starts, including a brace at Newton Abbot in August. Those efforts underline both consistency and adaptability, as he has handled different tracks and ground with equal assurance. The only blemish on his campaign came when encountering ground that was significantly softer than advertised, which dulled his finishing effort.
Trained by Tom Lacey, who boasts an excellent record with handicappers at Plumpton this season, Howth arrives with conditions much more in his favour. The two-mile trip is ideal for his style of racing, as he travels with ease and quickens when asked. Jockey Stan Sheppard, booked again here, has already forged a strong partnership with him and should have him well positioned throughout.
What makes Howth particularly appealing is his potential beyond this race. Connections have mentioned lofty goals such as a tilt at Cheltenham or the Welsh Champion Hurdle later in the year, and a victory here would solidify his standing as one of the syndicate’s leading horses. With form figures that clearly stand out in this field, Howth has the quality and momentum to extend his remarkable run and underline his class once again.
17:07 Southwell – Tanjen
Gram Dodd; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Tanjen has been one of the revelations of the summer, rising rapidly through the handicap ranks after starting from a low base. Since stepping into handicaps, he has climbed an impressive 19lb in the weights across just six starts, reflecting the steady progress he has made. Two wins punctuate that sequence, both on all-weather surfaces, with the most notable success coming right here at Southwell.
On that day, he destroyed a field of his own age group by three and a half lengths, travelling powerfully before quickening clear in style. The manner of that victory suggested he has plenty more to give, and the return to this track looks an obvious move by connections keen to exploit his affinity for the surface.
Trainer Tim Easterby has been enjoying a strong spell, and jockey Sean Kirrane has also been riding with real confidence in recent weeks, so the team arrives in form. With the opposition looking modest for the prize money on offer, this represents an excellent opportunity for Tanjen to further establish himself as a young horse to follow in handicaps. Still relatively unexposed, his trajectory suggests there is another step forward to come, and Southwell could once again be the place where he delivers it.
