Newbury racing tip: She's Hot flames to please with third career win
Ryan Moore rides Bertinelli to victory at Newbury May 20, 2023
There’s an extremely competitive-looking group of runners lining up for the 17:55 at Newbury this afternoon, but horse racing pundit On Target Tips thinks an outsider holds value.
17:55 Newbury: Gamble Responsibly at Bet Victory Handicap
The market favourite Intricacy placed second of 11 at Wolverhampton on debut and followed that with victory in a seven-horse field as an 8/13 favourite, however, he was beaten by five lengths on his recent return there.
He makes his bow on Turf this afternoon but that runout was necessary and he could improve with a visor on. He'll go up against a crowded market with Stage Show and Nader King both improving after time off.
Our focus is fourth in the market, She's Hot, who performed terrifically as a juvenile, winning twice and coming runner-up on four occasions.
She made the step up to 10 furlongs well when finishing fifth at Brighton early in May but failed to build on that over eight furlongs later that month. The step up in trip was always expected to suit and that could be the case again this afternoon.
Paul Cole and Oliver Cole have been a terrific bet in Flat Turf Handicaps over the past five seasons, turning a profit of nearly 80 units to level stakes across 180 races.
Suggested bet:
She's Hot to win the 17:55 at Newbury
