Today's Racing Tips: Howzak to strike at Lingfield on Friday

There is one bet for today’s racing at Lingfield.
Lingfield Tip
14:45 – 5f Betway Handicap (Class 5)
Lethal Blast, a multiple course and distance winner, is perfectly drawn in stall two and should go well. However, slight preference is for HOWZAK (NAP – 1 point win bet at 13/2), who can bounce back from a couple of disappointing efforts either side of Christmas. His last run over this course and distance saw him readily pull clear of his rivals before going on to a complete a hat trick of wins at odds of 1/3 at Chelmsford a couple of days later. He was beaten by just half-a-length next time out but has failed to make the frame in all three races since. The handicapper has dropped him by a couple of pounds since his run over six furlongs here 24 days ago. Things didn’t go to plan that day and he lost his chance when racing awkwardly around the home bend. Darragh Keenan, who has a good record when riding for Robyn Brisland this season, should be able to take up a good position from stall six, and this speedy four-year-old can land a fourth career win.
