Newsboy's Expert Selections for Wednesday's Horse Racing Fixtures
Renowned tipster Newsboy has unveiled his comprehensive selections for Wednesday's trio of horse racing meetings, featuring a standout nap at Kempton Park and a strong next best pick at Southwell. With eight races scheduled at Kempton, the focus is firmly on the Richard Hannon-trained filly Ablon, who is fancied to secure a maiden victory in the evening's feature contest.
Ablon Poised for Breakthrough at Kempton Park
Ablon is the headline selection in the Unibet More Extra Place Races Maiden Stakes at 5.40pm at Kempton Park. This daughter of Le Havre, trained by Richard Hannon, did not race as a two-year-old, making her belated debut over one mile at Lingfield Park in August. Despite being sent off at odds of 16-1, she showed promising signs under jockey Sean Levey, recovering from a slow start to finish a close fifth, beaten by just a couple of lengths behind the winner Hachiman.
Her subsequent run in a 10-furlong novice stakes at Goodwood in September saw her finish fifth again, but this time over 15 lengths behind the victor Master Vintner. However, the heavy going on the South Downs that day likely did not suit her, and she is expected to fare much better back on the Polytrack surface at Kempton. With scope for further improvement, Ablon receives the nap vote to break her maiden at the third attempt, offering punters a compelling opportunity.
Shalaa Asker Leads the Charge at Southwell
At Southwell, Shalaa Asker is rated as the next best selection and a worthy market leader for the Create Your Bet Builders At Midnite Handicap at 1.44pm. This runner recently returned to winning form on the Tapeta surface at Wolverhampton just 15 days ago, demonstrating strong form and fitness. Newsboy highlights this as a key contender, making it a solid pick for the opening race of the day at the Nottinghamshire track.
