Horse racing tips: Horses you MUST back at Ludlow, Wincanton and Newcastle
AFTER failing to get any further than the first hurdle on his latest outing, ALLART (1.20, nap) can make amends at Ludlow.
The six-year-old showed that he has the potential to win races after finishing third behind Drunken Duck in a smart bumper at Newbury two seasons ago.
He was expected to build on that performance when making his hurdling debut at Ascot in November but tipped up at the first hurdle.
This looks an excellent opportunity to put that run behind him and take this contest at the expense of Wincanton bumper winner Hunting Percival.
The talented Ben Jones will enable LEGENDS GOLD (2.55, nb) to defy top-weight in the Join Racing TV Mares’ Hurdle.
The 5lb allowance Jones claims will offset the mare’s climb in the weights.
She was not disgraced in defeat when sixth behind Jatiluwith at Cheltenham in November after winning her three previous races.
The popular Bryony Frost can light up Wincanton where she partners BRANDON CASTLE 3.10, treble) in the handicap hurdle.
He is back on winning mark after defeats in better company.
