The Weekend Wager: Check out the best bets from Kempton, Lingfield and Newcastle

After tipping up Fortescue (advised 12/1) at Ascot last weekend to continue his excellent tipping form, Raceolly is back for the next edition of The Weekend Wager, and he has five tips for Saturday's action. He heads to three meetings for his best bets of the weekend, and has tips from Kempton, Lingfield and Newcastle...

13:15 Kempton - Coral 'Fail-To-Finish' Free Bets Handicap Chase

NOT A ROLE MODEL looked good when winning on his only previous visit to the track and had a great start to the season when just missing out to a well handicapped When You're Ready at Chepstow. Not so good on his two runs since, but both times the ground was soft and his best form as been on the better surface. Now 1lb below a last winning mark here and Sam Thomas is having an amazing season boasting 16 winners from 78 runners and a further 17 places, a 21% win rate.

13:50 Kempton - Coral Adonis Juvenile Hurdle

MOKA DE VASSY has improved with every outing and ran a huge race last time when chasing home Triumph Hurdle hope Pied Piper at Cheltenham in a Grade 2, form that’s been boosted since. Jane Williams does exceptionally well with hurdlers and it’s always worth looking at what she’s running, she has a 29% win rate with them this season which rises to 54% for places. She also has a 36% win rate at the track in the last five years. 

14:05 Lingfield - Betway Winter Derby Stakes

AL ZARAQAAN is four from five on the all weather and went off 6/4 favourite in the trial for this race last time out when just weakening in the last 100 yards, and now finds himself six times the price of the one that reeled him in that day. Archie Watson does exceptionally well at Lingfield boasting a 22% win rate from 285 runners over the last five seasons and Hollie Doyle has a good record when riding for him (23% win rate this season).

15:15 Newcastle - Vertem Eider Handicap Chase

Everything clicked into place for CHECKITOUT last time and he’s been running well all season and there’s potential of further improvement again now upped in trip and with first time cheekpieces given a whirl. A handicap mark of 132 is well within his range having run off similar marks all season, placing off 136 over the National fences at Aintree in December.

15:37 Kempton - Coral Trophy Handicap Chase

GALAHAD QUEST has run well all season and his best run came last time in a Grade 3 handicap at Cheltenham when finishing 2nd to a very well backed winner. Only a 1lb higher here for that effort and further improvement possible now stepped up in trip which has looked a good move on recent evidence. Nick Williams has a good record when booking David Noonan and the pair boast a £19 profit if backing all their runners with £1 win stake and a 16% win rate. Looking at the profit to £1 stake you’d be £50 richer if backing all Williams' handicap runners over the last five years after 291 runners.
