Neil Morrice shares all of his best bets and tips for Tuesday’s racing coming your way from Lingfield Park, Nottingham and Hamilton Park on 13 August 2024.
LINGFIELD PARK
Race 3 No8 MISS NIGHTFALL (Nap)
Trainer: James Fanshawe – Jockey: Daniel Muscutt
NIGHTFALL receives 8lb from penalised favourite Golden Paradise and is strongly fancied to cash in. The Sands Of Mali filly made the frame on debut at Windsor and has worked well on an all-weather surface at home.
Race 5 No5 MISS DUBAI
Trainer: Denis Coakley – Jockey: Tadgh O’Shea
O’Shea returns to his old stamping ground when teaming up with West Ilsley trainer Coakley on MISS DUBAI. The combination were wide margin scorers over course and distance at the start of the month, and can take full advantage of the race conditions which sees them getting 9lb from the older Foinix.
Race 6 No5 KHANGAI
Trainer: Mark Rimell – Jockey: Hollie Doyle
KHANGAI skipped a good opportunity last week and appears to have been found a more straightforward assignment in which he should earn. The selection has troubled the judge on his last three outings for a stable whose horses have been going well.
NOTTINGHAM
Race 3 No8 PREVAIL (Each Way)
Trainer: Sir Michael Stoute – Jockey: Richard Kingscote
PREVAIL was easy to back on her Yarmouth introduction but ultimately shaped with promise for a midfield finish. The daughter of Ulysses has learned plenty from that first foray onto the track and should better it to get into the shake-up. Debutants from the Stoute stable invariably improve a long way on second start.
Race 5 No4 MISS STORMY NIGHT (Nap)
Trainer: Richard Hannon – Jockey: Richard Kingscote
MISS STORMY NIGHT has become a real money spinner for her connections and can make this a fourth success on the bounce. She’s up against a potentially dangerous foe in Duran, but could still be progressing faster than the assessor is able to keep up with her.
HAMILTON PARK
Race 2 No9 TOP JUGGLER
Trainer: John Quinn – Jockey: Jason Hart
TOP JUGGLER brings the best form to the table of those that have run, and should prove hard to beat. The son of Bungle Inthejungle raised his game on second start to claim a minor cheque at Southwell. He attracted support that day, and should now be cherry ripe to deliver.
Race 4 No10 GOOD MORNING ALEX (Nap)
Trainer: David Barron – Jockey: Connor Beasley
GOOD MORNING ALEX gets the vote in a wickedly competitive Class3 which is without question the best race of the day. It’s hard to get away from his claims, given that the three-year-old is a winner of four of his last five outings and had Beasley in the irons for the first time at this course back in June when completing a hat-trick. His trainer has protected his mark by not running him through the summer, and that shrewd policy can reap dividends in this clash with ARCTIC MOUNTAIN, GISELLES DEFENCE and LUNARIO.
