16:20 – 5f Read Katie Walsh On Betway Insider Handicap (Class 5)

Keith Dalgleish sends his in-form sprinter The Thin Blue Line on the long journey south to contest this competitive handicap. His four-year-old should go well again, as should Dream Game, who has run well in both starts since returning from a 560-day break. However, preference is for BERT KIBBLER (NAP – 1 point win bet at 9/4), who will be tough to beat if he can reproduce the form he showed when making all over this course and distance last time out. A comfortable winner that day, he finished 1.25-lengths ahead of Strong Power, a horse that has well and truly franked the form by scoring three times since. He settled better in front compared to when he ran too keen on his first start for 106 days just before Christmas. With proven early pace, Connor Beasley should once again be able to take the field along and a 5lb rise shouldn’t be enough to halt the progression of this unexposed type, especially as he receives weight from all but one of today’s rivals. His form figures in All Weather handicaps now read 1231 and both wins have been on Tapeta.
