Horse Racing Tips: Tanner and Story to shine in the Haydock mud for Wednesday multiple

• Famous Bridge a win single yesterday

• Ned Tanner stamina a plus

• Alan Dudman is backing two at Haydock today

Tanner to enjoy the slog with his extra stamina

Back Ned Tanner @ 11/4 in the 14:25 Haydock

Just about a "score draw" for yesterday's column. Trapista was poor, but Famous Bridge was good for the column and we go again on a very testing Wednesday, as the ground at Haydock will be heavy.

Ned Tanner's ability to stay 2m4f-3m could be worth plenty today as he goes down in trip, as one thing you need at Haydock when the going gets tough is stamina.

He's lightly-raced with four starts over fences, and he's won two of them that included a victory last time out at Kelso over 3m.

His jumping was far from impressive, but the good ground on a sharp track put pressure on it. Haydock's fences are stiff, but he'll have a bit more time to measure them today.

His trainer Nick Alexander has fired in three winners from his last five runners, and off a low weight here, he might be able to handle the rise in class, and he'll certainly stay. Whether he is good enough is the question, but I am hoping he will.

Another Russell staying chaser to keep onside

Back Your Own Story @ 11/4 in the 16:10 at Haydock

A 3m4f Haydock Handicap Chase in heavy might be so slow, we could do with a calendar to time the race rather than a stopwatch - this will take some getting.

Lucinda Russell's Your Own Story certainly has enjoyed the increased stamina test of late, and he'll do at 11/4 for this.

He is held by No Cruise Yet on a CD clash earlier in the season and subsequently ran ever so well behind Gold Cup Bailly in Scotland - and Gold Cup Bailly is such a good jumper.

The 7yo has met some good horses in opposition this term as he bumped into Stumptown at Sandown. He gained a much-deserved victory at Wetherby over 3m7f last time - relishing the marathon distance.

He's progressive, and might be a bit stronger now since his CD run in November, and with more experience under his belt too, he's a young staying chaser on the up.
