UK Horse Racing Tips

George Bowen has had a disappointing season, failing to trouble the judge on all ten starts, but only went down three necks and a head when fifth of 21 over 6 furlongs on Town Moor last month and looks worth another try over an extra furlong. He’d previously run well, again over 6 furlongs, in the Coral Sprint Trophy at York, despite missing the break and being hampered with a furlong to run, so he may be able to round off the season with a win in the Betfred “Supports Jack Berry House” Handicap (1.50) at Doncaster on Saturday.

The Dark Angel gelding attempted 7 furlongs four times last season, without success, but has suggested more than once in recent months that a stiffer test of stamina might show him in better light. He races off the same handicap mark as when winning over the testing 6 furlongs at the Curragh last September and has winning form on good to firm going, not to mention being the choice of stable jockey Tony Hamilton, so he actually has quite a lot going for him.

Selection: Doncaster 1.50 George Bowen to win
