This Saturday promises an electrifying day of flat racing at Newmarket's prestigious July Course, and our racing experts have analysed every contender to bring you the most insightful betting advice.
Featured Race: bet365 Handicap (4.25pm)
The feature handicap of the day sees a competitive field battling for supremacy, but one runner stands out as exceptional value. MIGHTY ULYSSES receives our strongest recommendation as the nap selection of the day.
This William Haggas-trained colt has shown progressive form in his recent outings and appears perfectly handicapped to strike. With ideal ground conditions and a favourable draw, he represents outstanding each-way value at current prices.
Supporting Cast: Best of the Rest
Elsewhere on the card, keep a close eye on these promising contenders:
- ELITE STATUS in the 2.40pm looks primed for a big performance after an encouraging seasonal debut
- STAR OF LADY M represents excellent value in the 3.15pm following a recent eye-catching effort
- ROYAL DIPLOMACY could outrun his odds in the concluding handicap at 5.35pm
Ground Conditions and Draw Analysis
The July Course is expected to provide perfect racing conditions with good-to-firm ground. Our analysis suggests horses drawn low may hold a slight advantage in the straight-course races, particularly in the larger fields.
Remember to check the latest going report and non-runners before placing your bets, as Newmarket's wide, galloping track can favour certain running styles.
Expert Betting Strategy
For those looking to build their betting portfolio, we recommend:
- Mighty Ulysses as the main bet of the day (each-way)
- Elite Status as a solid single
- A small each-way double combining our two strongest fancies
As always, bet responsibly and consider taking the enhanced place terms offered by several bookmakers for extra value.
