3.00 Yarmouth: Get The Inside Track With raceday-ready.com Handicap: Kicking things off on Wednesday will be the 3.00 at Yarmouth which is a Class 6 handicap over six furlongs. I’m siding with Mokaatil here for Ian Williams and Saffie Osbourne. He posted an encouraging effort last time out when third of eight at Brighton last month and has been dropped a further two pounds in the weights. He’s now two pounds lower than his last winning mark and has every chance to go close here. Mokaatil – 4/1 (Win)
3.30 Yarmouth: Paul Corrigan Memorial Handicap: I’m staying at Yarmouth for my second selection of the afternoon and this is more Class 6 handicap action, this time over a mile and three and a half furlongs. I’m strong on the chances of Baltic here for Harry Charlton and Ryan Moore. He returned to the track with an impressive success at Doncaster last month when winning by two and three-quarters of a length. He’ll come into the race having now won his last two outings and he certainly looks progressive, there could well be more to come. Baltic – 5/6 (Win) (NAP)
4.13 Fontwell: Yeeehaaa.Bet Handicap Chase: It’s over to Fontwell for selection number three and that comes in the 4.13 which is a handicap chase over three miles and two furlongs. This looks like another good opportunity for Village Master who represents the team of Warren Greatrex and James Bowen. He’s won his last four starts and has climbed up the weights as a result, however, his recent nine-pound rise for a four-length success at Cartmell last month might not be enough to stop him. There doesn’t look as though there’s much in opposition to him and I think he’ll go in again. Village Master – 11/10 (Win) (NB)
4.43 Fontwell: Bet On The Euros @ Yeeehaaa.Bet Handicap Hurdle: My final selection of the day takes place in the 4.43 at Fontwell which is handicap hurdle action over two miles and three furlongs. I’m siding with Amalfi Bay here for Anthony Honeyball and Sam Twiston-Davies. He showed considerable improvement on his second handicap start over hurdles when last seen at Stratford last month, finishing second of eleven. He stayed on well that day and this extra half of a furlong could be a further positive. His yard are in great form and I think he can go well. Amalfi Bay – 9/4 (Win)
