Betfair tipster Sam Turner returns following a couple of midweek winners with two selections for Friday...


Leicester, 15.30 - Back One Last Glance @ 10/34.33

 

With nine winners from just 43 runners this term, Tom Gretton is enjoying his best season and One Last Glance is fancied to supplement his recent course success for the Worcestershire handler.

Sean Bowen was seen to typically excellent effect on the selection who powered on strongly from the bottom of the Leicester straight to to overhaul track regular No Tackle and score readily.

Raised 5lb for that success, One Last Glance takes on much the same level of competition in this Class 5 handicap and, although he stretches out marginally in trip in this contest, that should be no inconvenience for him with Freddie Mitchell returning to the saddle.


Ayr, 15.50 - Back Platin Moon @ 4/15.00

 

With three winners from his last 10 runners, Nick Alexander is another trainer enjoying a good spell.

Platin Moon is one of a number of entries on the Ayr card for the Fife handler who sent out the likes of Dubai Days and Eloi Du Puy to score at the western venue in recent times.

The selection was a game winner course and distance from the front back in January and backed up that gritty performance with a solid display when again aggressively ridden by Bruce Lynn at Musselburgh.

It is possible the track didn't play to his strengths quite as well that day and the return to Ayr could be the catalyst to return to the winner's enclosure, especially as there doesn't appear to be tons of pace pressure in the field.
