Timeform on Publicist

Timeform head to Aqueduct and Tampa Bay for their best bets on Friday...

#5 El Hermano - Aqueduct R4 (19:25 GMT)

El Hermano has won his last two starts, the latest in a very fast time, and will take all the beating in his hat-trick bid. I Love Jaxson may be the biggest danger, while Crea's Bklyn Law can also make the minor places.

#2 Faction Cat - Tampa Bay R5 (19:46 GMT)

Faction Cat is in good heart at the moment and looks the one to side with in this high-value optional claiming contest. Cuestion de Tempo is another in fine form and looks the main danger as he seeks a hat-trick.

#6 Publicist - Tampa Bay R8 (21:18 GMT)

Publicist has recorded strong speed figures on her way to a pair of wide-margin wins on her last two starts and now goes first-off-the-claim for trainer Gerald Bennett, whose string are in top form. Nikki Bella should be the main threat.
