Newsboy expects his Nap, Percy Veering, to run a big race in the 2.05 at Market Rasen and he also believes Brewing can score a fourth course and distance victory at Newcastle (3.22)
PERCY VEERING looks ready to give punters a great run for their money in the 100% Racing TV Profits Back To Racing Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Chase (2.05) at Market Rasen over an extended three miles and three furlongs.
Having previously won three on the bounce last term, the eight-year-old gelding out of the joint stable of Kim Bailey and Mat Nicholls returned after a nine-month layoff to run a blinder at the same Lincolnshire course back in November.
Running on strongly throughout over three miles, he led after the last but just failed to hold off Pats Dream by half a length.
The pair were clear of the field that day, and my selection should be in the mix over the longer trip
BREWING goes for a fourth course and distance win at Newcastle in the Weekly Free Bets With BetMGM Extra Handicap (3.22) over seven furlongs.
The six-year-old son of Showcasing was last seen 38 days ago in a seven-runner handicap, fitted with a tongue strap for the first time, where he beat Empirestateofmind by a cosy three-quarters of a length under top weight.
William Haggas’ sole runner of the day has scored in higher class events than this and looks the value pick.
