Four meetings, two days, four tips, four winners? 3/8/11 and 4/8/11

This week I have looked at racing from the length and breadth of jolly old England, and we have four selections from four separate meetings over Wednesday and Thursday, afternoon and evening meetings. On Wednesday we have a selection from Pontefract and Newcastle and Thursday Haydock and Sandown.

The best bet of the four appears to be CARABOSS, who is owned by Her Majesty The Queen, and looked very smart when breaking her maiden tag last time out at Newcastle, and the tough run in there will have made the filly learn a lot, and has progressed with every run, finishing fourth of eighteen, then third of eleven before eventually breaking her duck. Debuting in handicap company, she appears to have gained a very lenient mark, and should go close.

ROMAN EAGLE looks to be a colt with boundless promise for the in form trainer Roger Varian, and he runs in the 4:10 at Haydock Park, which is a class three handicap over a mile. The colt shaped well last season, winning on debut and also a conditions race, with a respectable run in the Two Year Old Trophy sandwiched in between. He looked liked he needed the run when a six length sixth racing after a 280 day absence, and given the way the yards horses come on, he looks like he will laugh in the face of the handicapper.

This column a few weeks ago pointed out the form of the EASTERBY yard, and he well and truly followed up in the last couple of weeks with recent tips Last Bid last week, and Hoof it most recently in the Stewards Cup both winning for the yard, and we have a further two horses here on Wednesday. In the 5:10 at Pontefract the filly LIZZIE can build on her recent win at Thirsk over the same distance. The filly hacked up and has clearly trained on from two to three years. The second that day won next time out after being heavily supported, and she looks to be tough as nails. The trainer also has another decent prospect in LITTLE JIMMY ODSOX looks like a sprinter with an incredibly bright future, and the unbeaten son of Namid takes another step up when running at Newcastle. The gelding has won a maiden and then his debut in handicap company, and winning fairly comfortably. Melodise who ran him close that day has since won next time out, and given the yards form, he should win, and expect a plunge on him in the market too.
