Will Smith Tips

Gidleigh Park
3.30 Ascot - 'without Il Etait Temps'
** Win
2/1
Lucky 15
2/1

As ever, it’s a fascinating Saturday of racing across the board, but one which it felt hard to find any massive value at the prices. There are some pretty solid fancies though, and these feature on today’s 2-star ** Each-Way Lucky15 for WhichBookie.

The feature race of the day is of course the BetMGM Clarence House Chase at 3.30 at Ascot, and clearly the market has the right favourite in Il Etait Temps, as this now 5-time Grade 1 winning chaser is quickly merging into a recognised top-notcher.

All things being equal, you’d imagine he’ll take this en route to a tilt at ultimate greatness by attempting to banish his Cheltenham hoodoo in the Champion Chase in March.

Jonbon is next in, and despite never finishing out of the first two in a quite extraordinary career, today might be the fateful day that he does, as I strongly believe that Harry Fry’s Gidleigh Park should be clear second favourite for today’s race, on all know recent evidence.

Thistle Ask is likeable but even though he has apparently been improving with every start, that might not actually be the case on the clock, and he would need a massive jump again to be competitive.

Gidleigh Park is building himself up to a career-defining performance, and the tempo and rhythm he set in the 2m5f 1965 Chase here at Ascot last time would see him finish 2nd at the worst today, and perhaps even put it up to Il Etait Temps.

So, the way to play it would be to recommend a 2-star ** Daily Value win only bet on Gidleigh Park at 2/1 with BetVictor or Bet365 in their market ‘without Il Etait Temps.’

100/30
Myretown

Came From Nowhere
2.53 Ascot
Win
11/4

1.00 Ascot – Handicap Chase – 3m

I put up IN D’OR last time out when making his stable debut and suggested a chance was being taken on race readiness and with that in mind, I thought he ran a massive race. He matched his career best RPR and he was a course and distance winner last season when he took David Maxwell for a trip around the track and would have won with any atop.

That was a major reason for seeing this horse as an improver this season because he clearly is a horse with huge ability but should benefit now under a professional jockey.

IN D’OR – 1 STAR WIN @ 100/30

 

2.00 Haydock – Peter Marsh Handicap Chase – 3m1½f

Competitive renewal of this but it’s still hard to get away from MYRETOWN as a prospect and this race should suit him being a front-end galloper on a track such as Haydock. He boasts a number of falls in his career but the upside is that he also boasts a 100% strike rate following a fall and while Haydock fences are no gimme, they’re not quite the force they were.

MYRETOWN – 1 STAR WIN @ 5/2

 

2.20 Ascot – Handicap Chase – 2m5f

Vincenzo warrants being at the head of the market but I’m not convinced this is his track while SCARFACE was good last time out in first time blinkers which have now been switched back to cheekpieces and this extra 2f should suit if he can keep his jumping together late on (he made a hash of the second last and wasn’t great at the last either). Has a favourable weight swing with Etalon and 3 of the last 5 renewals (23 and 24 not run) have found the winner by looking at Ascot last time out losers showing a 95% ROI. In fact, he was a qualifier on that angle last year with the winner Terrisita but he was inconvenienced by Bad’s fall but not enough to cost him his race. I think he might just be the best EW option in here

SCARFACE – 0.5 STAR EW @ 15/2 (3 places 1/5)

 

2.35 Haydock – Handicap Hurdle – 3m½f

Good Saturday race this one with plenty who can have cases made for them but I like the chance of PHANTOMOFTHEPOINTS who ran a massive race here two starts ago off the front end under a proper good ride from Jack Tudor. I’ll be honest, I have few excuses for him on that day other than being beaten by better treated rivals including the winner Electric Mason well tipped by Andrew on this show. But there’s a chance the ground might not be quite a testing looking at the forecast, the fourth Ace Of Spades has boosted the form since, the 6th has won since so while his price is collapsing and he is the type to place, I think he still warrants a win dart in a race that would be won with a repeat of that run here two starts ago

PHANTOMOFTHEPOINTS – 1 STAR WIN @ 4/1

 

2.53 Ascot – Handicap Hurdle – 2m3½f

CAME FROM NOWHERE won with ease last time out in first time tongue-tie and is a horse who has had issues which now looked cleared. A 7lb rise from the handicapper got him into a contest like the Lanzarote where he was a non-runner by account of the ground and this looks more suitable.  He won with plenty left in the tank last time out but now the only question mark is no longer around the ground but this attempt on a stiffer finishing track like Ascot which doesn’t suit all types, but it is right-handed where his best form has come from and I simply think he’s just better than these

CAME FROM NOWHERE – 2 STAR WIN @ 11/4

You’ll find each way tips for today listed above from Will Smith. The best each way bet for today will be listed as their ‘NAP’.

ITV Racing Tips

We don’t provide tips for every race televised on ITV but as we cover all of the major racing festivals, many of our tips apply to ITV races and our tipsters will often provide an in depth preview of each day of festivals such as Cheltenham, Royal Ascot, Good wood and Galway.

AtTheRaces Tips

At The Races (ATR) offers a range of free horse racing tips, expert analysis, and race previews for both domestic and international meetings. Their racing tips come from Hugh Taylor (daily tips), Laurent Barbarin (French Racing), Paul Quigley (US Racing) and Gary Nutting (Ante-Post Tips).

Racing Post Tips

Racing Post provides free horse racing tips for all UK and Irish meetings each day. These selections come from experienced tipsters such as Pricewise, and include NAP of the Day, Race-by-Race Tips, Lucky 15s and Accumulators.

For more in-depth analysis and high-value selections, the Racing Post offers a premium subscription service – Racing Post+.

Some of their racing tips include NAP of the Day, Racing Accumulator Tips, Lucky 15 Tips, Double Tips, Early Value Tip and an Evening Best Bet when their are evening meetings taking place.

How Much Do Tips Cost?

All of our tips are 100% free. You will never be asked to pay for any of our racing tips or selections and this includes our very popular Lucky15 category. It’s a good idea to visit this page regularly to check the performance of the racing tips which we provide and decide for yourself if they’re worth following. We provide complete transparency on all of the selections and ongoing performance from our in house tipsters.

What Kind Of Tips Are Available?

Our horse racing tips will generally be either win tips or each way tips for ante-post and upcoming races. Occasionally, horse racing double tips may be available along with NAP of the day. We publish daily Lucky15 tips from UK and Irish racecourses and our tipsters have enjoyed some great success with these selections. You can check the performance via the individual tipster profile pages.

Can I Watch The Races The Tips Are For?

Yes. You’ll be able to watch all UK & Irish races via the horse racing streams available at Bet365 (T&Cs apply)

Racing Tips Notifications

Our racing tips are usually published in the morning but if you’d like to be notified when a new tip is posted, you can join our horse racing tips telegram group for free. This is recommended as the odds can fluctuate and move dramatically lower on certain selections once the value has been spotted !

Where Should I Place The Bets?

For each tip that is published, we recommend a bookmaker to place the bet with. Of course, you can use any bookmaker that is offering odds on the specified race but there is a reason why we recommend bookies for certain bets. For example, if a tip is an Each Way selection, we may recommend a bookmaker offering Extra Places on the race. We also take odds into consideration and so if there aren’t any betting offers available on the race, we simply recommend the bookie offering the greatest odds. If you don’t have an account with the bookmaker we are suggesting to place the bet with and are interested in creating an account with them, be sure to check out our free bets page to find the latest welcome offer for that particular bookie.

Do You Provide Tips For The Big Racing Festivals?

Absolutely! In fact, you’ll often find our tipster Will Smith providing ante-post tips in the months leading up to the major festivals which can have a lot of value. Will has had great success at festivals such as Cheltenham and Royal Ascot by providing both winning ante-post and daily betting tips. Check out today’s Cheltenham tips for all selections from Will Smith & David Young.

Where Can I View Past Results?

We keep a record of all of the tips suggested by Will and a record of every tip he has published can be found on his profile page which can be found here.

What Stakes Should I Use?

This depends on the size of your betting bankroll and will be different between each person. Never bet more than you are comfortable with and can afford to lose. #begambleaware
