Carl Harris’ Daily Racing Tips / Carl Harris / 25 November 2009 / Leave a comment

Carl Harris is off for a spot of lunch at the Yorkshire track - can he find a few horses to pay for his ploughman's?

"At [3.5] in the 13:50 @ Wetherby, Lease Lend is my best bet of the day."

Wetherby and Chepstow provide the jumps action on Wednesday with decent cards, certainly much better than Tuesdays cards which were shocking. Lingfield and Kempton offers punters an all-weather double header, but for me I will be giving it a miss. As regular readers will be aware I am focusing on the jumps, spending my time on less meetings, which has paid dividends of late. I will be off to Wetherby for a nice lunch and a spot of punting. I have also been told about a bumper debutant at Chepstow which is fancies to run a big race first time out. Here are todays recommended bets;

13:50 Wetherby, Lease Lend - Win.

Tim Easterby will have been pleased to get a win on the board last time out at Newcastle with Lease Lend. It was a case of ninth time lucky after running consistently well over the larger obstacles. Jumping is the name of the game and Lease Lend does this very well. Up only five pounds with a confidence boosting victory on the board I think he will win again and is my best bet of the day to do so.

14:25 Wetherby, Shifting Gold - Win.

Kevin Ryan is more a flat trainer than National Hunt but when he sends one over the sticks it is always worth taking note. Shifting Gold ran with credit when second at Newcastle, to Monsieur Jordian (who won at Sedgefield yesterday), which sets him up nicely to get off the mark here in this 14 runner Juvenile Maiden Hurdle contest. Brian Toomey takes seven off and I will be a backer.

15:55 Chepstow, Amroth Bay - Win.

Andrew Balding has booked AP McCoy for the racecourse debut of his five year-old. I have been told that this is strongly fancied to run well, but this comes as no surprise and will be reflected in the price. The gelding will not have to be a world beater to win this race, certainly on the face of it. The market will be interesting so get on early.
