Top Betting Offers To Take Advantage Of Today

This afternoon’s jump racing schedule brings together an intriguing mix of emerging talent and seasoned juveniles, with Ascot playing host to the standout action. Among several competitive handicaps, it’s the Sodexo Live! Juvenile Handicap Hurdle at 2.45 that catches the eye, with eight four-year-olds vying to make their mark over 1m7½f. With Sky Sports Racing providing live coverage, this Class 2 event looks an ideal platform for a few lightly-raced hurdlers to stake their claim for bigger assignments in the spring.

The contest features a diverse field, including the likes of Star Of Guiting, who arrives off the back of a narrow win, and Torrent, who has hit the frame in successive Grade 2s. Ocean Conquest and Galactic Charm both bring progressive profiles, while Sauvignon looks to bounce back from underwhelming showings at a higher level. At the foot of the weights, Benvoy returns to the track having recently made a winning start to life in handicaps at Huntingdon.

Elsewhere on the Ascot card, there’s a good mix of novice events and handicaps, but none quite carry the same intrigue as this competitive juvenile. With most runners still open to further improvement, particularly those stepping out of novice company, this race could act as a launching pad for a more prominent role on the spring festival circuit.

Nap of the Day: Benvoy to win 2.45 Ascot

Benvoy’s profile suggests he is poised to take another significant step forward following a highly encouraging success on his handicap hurdle debut earlier this month. The four-year-old, now under the care of Jo Davis, produced a polished display at Huntingdon, where he travelled smoothly and found plenty late on to win by nearly two lengths. The fact that he made light work of that field off a mark of 100 suggests he may still be well ahead of the assessor, even with a 7lb rise.

The visual impression he left that day was backed up by a solid Racing Post Rating of 106, which places him competitively among today’s field, especially considering his relatively low weight of 10st 7lbs. Gavin Sheehan, who is enjoying a rich vein of form with nine winners from his last 29 rides, is once again on board and his knack for timing runs to perfection could prove decisive here.

Though he had been inconsistent prior to that breakthrough run, the switch to handicaps, coupled with a clearer pace scenario, brought out marked improvement. With the race shaping to suit a hold-up type and the likelihood of a strong gallop, Benvoy’s tactical speed and proven finishing kick could give him a decisive edge in a race where many of his rivals carry higher burdens and possibly less progression to come.
