Huntingdon tips today: our likely top three in every race
Tuesday 10 November · Going: Good Our likely top three for every race at Huntingdon today, read on the form before the off, with what we make of each race. Prices are as we captured them at 10:30.
1:10 2m7½f Class 4 handicap chase · 5 run · PricedUp Boosts And BOG Veterans' Handicap Steeple Chase prices at 10:30 What we make of it. A small veterans' handicap where all five arrive with a question: three come off long breaks or poor last runs, and the two fit ones were well beaten last time. The form of a Class 2/Class 3 class-dropper is set against a course-and-race winner on a low mark, and there is little between the top four.
- 1 Charles Ritz 15/8 Kempton 3rd in a race that has produced three winners
- 2 Escaria Ten 9/2 Class 2 Cheltenham 3rd off OR 125, drops to Class 4 after 192 days off
- 3 Fern Hill 9/2 Won this race last year off OR 107, runs off OR 108
Read the full form for the 1:10 → 1:40 2m4½f Class 5 handicap hurdle · 6 run · PricedUp Bet Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle Race prices at 10:30 What we make of it. A small conditional jockeys' handicap on good ground in which only Ocean Heights brings a recent winning line at around the trip, with Bread And Butter down to a mark well below its course form. The top weight Teorie has faded in its recent runs and the rest have questions on form or fitness, so the race looks open behind the first two.
- 1 Ocean Heights 9/2 Won at Newton Abbot 7 Sep; runner-up Mother Ship has won twice since.
- 2 Bread And Butter 6/1 Third in this race last year; now OR 81, won here off OR 108.
- 3 Watchoutitscookie 8/1 Back over hurdles off OR 73; placed 3 of 4 at the trip.
Read the full form for the 1:40 → 2:10 2m Class 4 novice hurdle · 7 run · PricedUp Now With Best Odds Guaranteed Mares' Novices' Hurdle Race (He prices at 10:30 What we make of it. Only one runner in this mares' novice hurdle has won over hurdles; the rest are bumper or Flat horses still finding their way over obstacles, several of them back from long breaks. The best bumper form in the field stands well clear of everything else, so it is less tight than seven runners suggests, and the open question is the order behind.
- 1 Seven Stars 4/11 Grade 2 Aintree sixth; Hereford victim since won over hurdles
- 2 Dancing Dame 3/1 Only hurdle winner here, won course mares' maiden 6 Oct
- 3 Potters Angeltiers 20/1 Course bumper third ahead of two later hurdle winners
Read the full form for the 2:10 → 2:40 2m4f Class 5 handicap chase · 6 run · PricedUp Boosted Prices Daily Novices' Handicap Steeple Chase prices at 10:30 What we make of it. A small novices' handicap chase on good ground with an improving young winner of its last two races at the top and a reliable but winless placer close behind on the figures. The rest have little recent chase form at this trip, so it reads as a two-horse race unless Eastern Shores takes to fences.
- 1 Cap Ricochet 4/5 Its 1 run over fences at today's trip was a win, and its only visit to Huntingdon was in a bumper.
- 2 Helios Allen 10/3 Consistent placer, 4½L behind Cap Ricochet, now 6lb better off
- 3 Eastern Shores 8/1 Ran ½L behind Roaring Home over hurdles; switches to fences now
Read the full form for the 2:40 → 3:10 2m Class 5 handicap hurdle · 7 run · PricedUp BOG From 10am Selling Handicap Hurdle Race prices at 10:30 What we make of it. A weak Class 5 selling handicap over 2m on good ground, with three or four in with a chance and nobody holding a clear form edge. The recent close form at the trip belongs to one runner; the rest come back from longer trips, from fences, or from poor runs on the Flat.
- 1 Latin 9/4 Beaten a head and 1¾L in last two runs at this trip
- 2 Bright Legend 2/1 Drops to 2m with a 10lb claim; 0 wins in 11 at trip
- 3 Can't Resist It Non-runner Ran over fences 9 Nov; Exeter form has worked out well
Read the full form for the 3:10 → 3:40 2m Class 4 handicap hurdle · 8 run · PricedUp Bet Handicap Hurdle Race (Challenger Two Mile Hurdle Series Q prices at 10:30 What we make of it. Most of the recent winning form belongs to Virtual Rock and Cayman Dancer, with Gallivanted and Blues Singer bringing course form, while Lewisham Grove, Turn And Finish and Amalfina all return from breaks. Virtual Rock stands clear on our figures, with a gap behind it before a group of runners closely matched on what they have shown.
- 1 Virtual Rock 15/8 Won twice off 107 in September, then beaten a neck off 116.
- 2 Gallivanted 11/4 Beaten 1½L in a Class 2 at Ascot off today's 109.
- 3 Blues Singer 7/2 Won here off 114 in March; flopped at Hexham, off 211 days.
