Newsboy’s racing tips for Tuesday’s three meetings, including Salisbury Nap
Newsboy expects his Nap, Regal Envoy, to build on his recent win ten days ago to score again at Salisbury in the 5.42, and he also rates Alhattan a value bet in the preceding handicap at 5.07
REGAL ENVOY can lord it over his rivals in the six-furlong Shipseys Marquees Handicap (5.42) at Salisbury.
The five-year-old was a course winner in May 2022 over five furlongs, and after two outings this term where he ran way too freely he came good on his most recent start ten days ago in a nine-runner handicap at Lingfield over today’s trip., keeping on strongly when hitting the front to beat Nogo’s Dream by a neck.
He has been given just a 2lb rise for that success, and trainer William Knight is in a good seam of form at present. Also on the plus side is the booking of Oisin Murphy for the ride.
ALHATTAN looks the value pick in an open-looking Sorvio Insurance Brokers Margadale Fillies’ Handicap (5.07) over a mile and one and a half furlongs.
The three-year-old daughter of Lope De Vega won on her debut at Newcastle in January, but after consecutive defeats at odds-on and at even-money, the George Boughey trainee put in a promising first run on turf over ten furlongs at Newmarket 24 days ago.
She can build on that performance, where she was forced to switch to make her run late on before finishing a two-length sixth behind Whathappensinvegas.
