3:05 Southwell (9th February) Racing Tips

3.05 Southwell - a fairly tight class 6 claimer.  Four horses, Al Khan, Electric Qatar, Hot Sugar & Jiminy have been known to lead, so there should be plenty of early pace. This should set it up for one of the hold-up types. Edith Anne and Monsiuer Jamie usually like to track the leaders, leaving just one true hold up horse Shawkantango. Derek Shaw has a respectable eighteen percent win rate in claimers. plus the selection is ridden by the seven pound claiming apprentice Adam Mclean who has already ridden ten winners for the yard. I think the allowance could make the difference and swing things in this bay gelding's favour. (E.R.I.C.)
