Not the best racing once again this Sunday but I have dug out a trio of options that I feel have decent chances. First up we head to the all-weather card at Newcastle where Mighty Quiet looks to have an excellent chance ahead of the 3.25pm for trainer Harry Charlton. Lightly raced last year with no early signs of any talent, they added a tongue-tie and the result was almost miraculous with a very easy win at Bath where he made all the running.

Sticking to the all-weather at Newcastle for now at least, I was very taken with the way Cristo pounced late on to win his second start on the bounce for Richard Hannon at Chelmsford earlier this month. Value for more than the official margin of a length and three-quarters, his 6lb rise in the handicap is part-balanced out by jockey Joe Leavey claiming 3lb from the saddle, and with luck in running he can land his hat-trick along with our bet.

Just the one over the jumps for me this afternoon when Hecouldbetheone returns to Plumpton looking for his third course and distance win in the 4.10pm. A confirmed front runner, this track certainly plays to his strengths, and as he has won here off 1lb higher andc1lb lower, we know he is racing off a sensible and winnable mark.

I think we have more chance of being struck by lightning than seeing the Epsom Derby winner in action here, but it is what it is, and something has to win. Puppet Master heads the betting for Aidan O’Brien and Ryan Moore but he doesn’t exactly look bullet-proof after his Leopardstown fourth, and there may be better each way value elsewhere.

Three-year-olds may not have the best record in this race but they did win it last year with Great Generation and hopefully they can do so again courtesy of Ralph Beckett’s Cathedral. A debut winner here at Lingfield on the all-weather, she followed that with a second to Merrily in the Group Three Oh So Sharp Stakes at Newmarket, with the front two close to three lengths clear of the rest.

Another race where I am happy to take a risk (to smaller stakes) when Andrew Badling brings Array back to the track after his third at Thirk on his first start since the 2000 Guineas of 2024. My theory is that he will have badly needed that start after such a long break, and if that is the case, he has a chance to recapture his best form, that includes a win in the Group Two Mill Reef Stakes at Newbury as a juvenile.

Luke Humphries preserved his hopes of securing top spot in the BetMGM Premier League with a thrilling victory on Night 14 in Leeds. Humphries defeated Luke Littler 6-5 in a compelling final to triumph at the First Direct Arena, having also claimed the spoils at this venue 12 months ago. Leeds United fan Humphries received a terrific ovation on his return to West Yorkshire, and he delivered the goods to confirm his Play-Off qualification and celebrate his first nightly victory since Night Four.

The Chester Cup is one of the biggest betting races early on in the Flat season and this year is no exception, with 17 runners declared for the two and a quarter mile test of stamina. Caballo De Mar may prove popular as he looks to extend a winning run currently sat at five, but the last four have been on the all-weather, and he needs to take another small step forward to win this.

You know and I know that I should not be tipping a 40/1 shot regardless, after all, it is a rarity to see as winner at that big a price, but I cannot resist a few pennies each way on Tarkhan, who heads the weights for the Chester opener at 1.30pm. The six-year-old is having his first start for Jamie Osborne having plied his trade abroad for Roland Dzubasz, winning nine races in total and finishing third in the Group Two Premio Vittorio di Capua at San Siro on his last start in November.

ALL VIEWS ARE MY OWNMy first article following a spectacular weekend for Godolphin, what odds could we have got earlier in the year that they would land the Kentucky Oaks and Derby double alongside the 1000 and 2000 Guineas – spectacular stuff for the boys in blue.
