THURSDAY’S RACING TIPS: HEREFORD & MARKET RASEN

Alan Morris previews the best of Thursday’s action with selections from Hereford and Market Rasen.

13:40 HEREFORD

Lightning Flash has won a chase over 2m 4f so can’t be easily discounted up in trip after a 2m win at Market Rasen. Eddie Edge claims 7lb in an attempt to negate the 7lb penalty over a similarly sharp course. Mr Jukebox looks to have a lot more potential and should strip fit enough to call the tune here. His win on handicap debut confirmed his bumper promise and he went on to finish a neck second behind subsequent winner Berkenshtaaap.

15:01 MARKET RASEN

Both courses look to be in danger of drying out but hopefully there is enough juice for Fireball Frenzy to confirm the promise of her Chepstow comeback after a long lay-off. Stuart Edmunds’ yard continues in good form and the step up in trip should suit. Burning Embers is an obvious danger as an improving lowly-rated handicapper from the Dan Skelton yard.
