15:00 Ayr – Boy Douglas
Steve Harrington; Senior Analyst at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Having shown a real fondness for Ayr throughout his career, Boy Douglas returns to a venue where he thrives, bringing with him a near-flawless local record. The five-year-old has notched up three wins from four starts at this track, making it his clear comfort zone. That success rate indicates a horse who relishes both the surface and the layout, something not to be underestimated in handicaps at this level.
His most recent outing resulted in a commanding victory over a mile here, where he barely had to be asked for maximum effort. The 5lb penalty he carries today feels almost academic given the authority of that win, and connections look to have found another suitable opening to capitalise on his form. Michael Dods is enjoying a productive spell at Ayr, with multiple winners already this season, including this very runner, and his stable’s confidence looks justified once more.
Boy Douglas has clearly matured with age, and based on his manner of victory last time, there may still be more to come. Conditions appear in his favour, and unless something unexpected emerges, he’s likely to put in another solid shift on a course that brings out the best in him.

15:15 Yarmouth – String Of Pearls
John Pentin; Sports Journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
String Of Pearls has begun to blossom since making the transition into handicap company, a route that many from her yard have taken successfully. After showing signs of rust on seasonal debut at Newmarket, she responded impressively on her next run at Goodwood, breaking her maiden tag in the style of a progressive filly. That victory came over 1m4f, and the manner of the win suggested she could well appreciate the further two furlongs on offer today.
Sir Mark Prescott’s runners are often noted for improving with distance and experience, and this one appears to be following that trajectory to the letter. The handicapper has only nudged her up 4lb for the Goodwood success, a lenient adjustment considering the strength of her finish and the depth of the field that day. There’s every reason to believe she has not yet peaked.
She enters today’s race looking like a filly still on the up, with the step up in trip likely to unlock more improvement. If she continues to develop at her current rate, she should have a significant edge over exposed rivals. Yarmouth’s long straight suits her running style perfectly, and she arrives with momentum on her side.
16:05 Ayr – Hornsea Bay
Herrin Kendrick; Horse Racing Correspondent at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Hornsea Bay has endured two luckless trips in recent weeks but those setbacks shouldn’t overshadow the signs of a horse ready to strike. Following a gelding operation, he produced a bold effort at Epsom last month, pressing the pace on ground that didn’t appear to suit and over a track that clearly didn’t play to his strengths. Still, he shaped well for a long way and didn’t fold tamely.
Next time out at Doncaster, things went no better in terms of fortune. He was travelling strongly when squeezed out of a run at a vital stage, and then suffered further interference in the closing stages. Despite all that, he finished a close fourth, suggesting that with a smoother passage, he would have gone very close indeed.
Today’s race offers the chance to put those frustrations behind him. He’s been eased 1lb since and lines up looking well treated on the balance of his form. Provided he encounters no traffic problems, his forward-going style should serve him well around Ayr. With his current mark offering headroom, Hornsea Bay could finally get the rub of the green and deliver on the promise he’s been hinting at.
19:05 Windsor – Inishfallen
Gram Dodd; Flat Racing Editor at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Inishfallen might just be ready to produce something of substance tonight at Windsor, especially with first-time cheekpieces added to the mix. His most eye-catching run came last autumn when just missing out at Yarmouth, and that effort came under Billy Loughnane – a jockey who is now back on board, which could prove significant. His recent appearance at Ascot saw him finish sixth in a competitive field where the form has held up well.
It’s also notable that he’s dropped further in the weights and now competes off a figure fully 14lb below his two-year-old rating, suggesting he’s well handicapped if able to recapture his best. The gelding operation last spring may now be beginning to show its effect, and the addition of headgear looks a timely move to sharpen him up.
Trainer Brian Meehan’s runners can take time to find their rhythm, and this one looks like he’s finally settling into himself. The race presents a blend of exposed older horses and inconsistent types, making this an ideal scenario for a horse with untapped ability returning to his optimum conditions. Inishfallen’s mark gives him a big chance if the cheekpieces unlock the extra focus he’s likely to need.ith Danny Tudhope back in the saddle, he’s likely to adopt aggressive tactics once more. Pontefract’s layout is ideal for those who like to control things from the front, and with a favourable draw and no obvious challengers for the lead, Raulin could well be allowed to dictate matters again. That’s when he’s at his most effective, and if granted that freedom, he could prove hard to catch.
