Racing: William Hill Trophy
Tax Free is the favourite today for the William Hill
Trophy at York (3.25), which is no surprise considering his
trainer's record with sprinters. David Nicholls' horse is a
short priced 4/1, and will be gunning for a hat-trick in
this Saturday's race. Tax Free scored for the third time in
four outings at Newmarket this month, but the ground must be
taken into consideration for this performance.
David Nicholls' has stated that he runs best on faster
ground, and as there is plenty of rain forecast for the
race, we are going to overlook Tax Free's chances and look
further down the field. Marching Song at 12/1 looks to
fit the bill. The Richard Hannon horse does look fresh for
this time of the season, and he still remains relatively
lightly raced for a sprint handicapper. He should go close
here today and get one back on his main rival Gimasha, who
won by a short head at a competitive 6f contest at Windsor
earlier this month.
With his added fitness and spark, Marching Song can get
one over today and should go close.
Recommendation: Marching Song @ 12/1
The main event at Goodwood on Sunday is the Celebration Mile
(3.15).
The big backers have gone for Layman after winning at
Salisbury in his last race. The Godolphin horse is likely to
be there or thereabouts, but the bookmakers have taken his
win into account in the betting, and he may be a little too
short to be taken.
One consistent performer here with good course form is
Majors Cast, who can follow up his wins in a maiden and a
decent event at Lingfield in September, by going close
today. He has improved with each race, winning three times
in Dubai, and he really stood out at Newbury last time out.
Recommendation: Majors Cast
