3:50 Thirsk Tips

Showed some improved form on handicap debut following a wind op when winning by 5L at Lingfield last week. Likely to go well again and should be there or thereabouts.

No comment made

Not been beaten that far in their 4 runs this season and they were all @ class 5 level. Goes in this class 6 off dropping mark of 62 so is nicely treated here, good jockey booked and shrewd trainer knows how to place his horses to best effect, making current 12/1 solid Ew value here.

Race 4 at Thirsk today is a Handicap (Class 6) for 3 to 6-year-olds over 1,207 m. The suggested wager is for the each way on the 3-year-old gelding Line Of Force from the Gemma Tutty yard, and will be ridden by Connor Beasley. This son of Calyx is a three-time winner, winning all over this distance. He has been campaigning over 2 furlongs further for some time now, and reverting back to his favorite distance today could be just what he needs. Big runner.

Good stable. All 5 wins have come over 6 furlongs. Last win came in June off a 1lb lower mark. Acts on this ground and ran well last time out at Hamilton, making good headway after dwelling at the start to finish a 3-length 3rd to Belsito. Worth an interest in what looks an open race.

Drops into selling class. Her best run to date was when runner-up around here on GS in July. That was over 7f, and she drops back to 6f today and is worth an EW bet at the prices.

Speaktotheguvnor is a 3-year-old bay filly by Ardad out of Belle Dormant, trained by Jennie Candlish and set to be ridden by P. Mulrennan. She carries a rating of 65, stepping into handicap company after showing promise in maidens. Her most recent run saw her finish a close second over 6f at Ffos Las with a first-time cheekpiece applied, beaten by around 2½ lengths ??' a performance that suggests she’s ready to take a step forward in this field. Before that, she was well-held over 7f at Doncaster but seems better suited to the sharp 6f trip. Her pedigree gives her potential to improve, especially under a good ride, and this drop in class matches what she needs to make the frame. The second place at ffoslas was behind (lodge) under Billy Loughnane who ran another good race nto at windsor this month. At 11/1 she holds nice value here.

Daughter of Advertise & Festoso ( Dam's sire Diesis ) who was last seen at Southwell 21 days ago where finishing a respectable 4th/10 keeping on with promise inside the closing stages currently operating on an extremely dangerous mark of 58 M & D Easterby's inmate looks poised to strike here worth noting he is now operating a total of 7lb below his last winning mark jockey Lewis Chalkley takes off a very valuable looking 7lb which only enhances his good looking claims here must be taken seriously and accordingly

He won at Newcastle back in June over 7f. The selection was beaten by just two lengths despite finishing sixth when last seen on turf last month when sporting first-time cheekpieces. The drop in trip may aid his chances today, and he can run from a decent draw on a reduced mark.
