1.25 Lingfield: Gamble Responsibly At BetUK Handicap: The first of two selections on Wednesday comes within the 1.25 at Lingfield and this is a Class 5 handicap over five furlongs. I like Harry Brown here for the team of Peter Crate and Shane Kelly. He posted his best effort for some time last time out over course and distance and remains on the same mark here, which is twenty-one pounds lower than his last winning one. If he turns up in the same kind of form he’s got every chance of having a major say at this level. Harry Brown – 4/1 (Each-Way)
7.00 Kempton: Unibet More Extra Place Races Fillies’ Handicap: My second selection comes from Kempton and in the 7.00 which is a Class 5 fillies handicap over seven furlongs. I’m strong on the chances of Next Trick here for Archie Watson and Luke Morris. She ran a very encouraging race on her stable debut at Kempton last month, finishing third of seven and a length and a quarter behind the winner. She didn’t get a clear run that day and I think she can make amends here dropped down to seven off the same mark. Next Trick – 5/2 (Win)
