‘Lightly raced, he arrives a contemporary horse’- Jason Heavey’s Monday racing ideas
The Daily Star’s chief tipster Jason Heavey fancies a Simon and Ed Crisford four-year-old to deliver
Redcar hosts a seven-race card on Monday where Jason Heavey has a hot tip running in the 3.42
JOLLY ROGER (3.42, nb) can sail to victory in the racingtv.com Handicap at Redcar.
The four-year-old ran well during the winter in Meydan, being placed twice in three outings.
Lightly raced, Simon and Ed Crisford’s charge arrives a fresh horse.
WORLINGTON (2.42) is capable of scoring a maiden win after a runner-up slot on his handicap bow 27 days ago.
Still green, he lost ground at the start but ran on well once he got going. He should improve a lot for that experience.
MR COLONEL (4.20) will be tough to beat in the Watch Live On Racing TV Novice Stakes.
Second on his race debut last term behind August George, a step up in trip plus a set of cheekpieces proved worthwhile when fifth in Newmarket’s Group Three Zetland Stakes.
Over the jumps at Kelso, LOOKING SPLENDID (3.00, nap) is the standout bet on the card.
Gary Rutherford’s eight-year-old has been in sparkling form, with a handicap hurdle victory over the course and at Carlisle in the autumn, but he looks even better over the bigger obstacles.
He romped home on his chasing debut over course and distance 18 days ago and there is every chance he can go in again despite a 9lb rise.
WOLFBURG (3.30) won by nine lengths at Carlisle last month – his second handicap chase success – despite some poor jumping, and if sharpening up that side of his game he’s another who can defy a whopping penalty.
On the all-weather, MAGNA (4.55, trb) was never headed under an inspired Rossa Ryan ride last time at Wolverhampton over six furlongs and is fancied to repeat the feat over the minimum trip.
Course and distance winner HARLINGTON (5.25) can deliver a four-timer stepping up in class with Tom Marquand in the saddle.
