3 TO WATCH: Value Picks at Epsom Downs | Thursday Evening
Our trio of selections who can potentially outrun their odds at Epsom Downs on Thursday evening
Epsom Downs hosts six contests on Thursday night on an action-packed day of flat action, with the Surrey track sharing evening hosting duty with Newbury.
Proceedings kickstart at 5:25pm at the Home of the Derby and our team have selected our three best bets on the card.
Take a read.
AMY BEACH: 5:25pm Beaverbrook Handicap
Mick Channon’s filly has had a consistent start to her career thus far and has bumped into one or two along the way.
Some of her best form appears to have arrived in softer ground but she ran right back to form at Newmarket on a quicker surface last time out.
David Probert gets the ride again and she boats a nice enough profile to make her presence felt in this seven-runner field.
DOC SPORTELLO: 7:00pm Walton-On-The-Hill Handicap
The son of Majestic Missile has been in strong form in 2021, winning on three occasions and fared better than the bare result at Brighton last time out.
He’s been dropped 3lbs by the handicapper as a result and his form on turf doesn’t read all that bad if forgiven his run in East Sussex last time out.
Luke Morris, who steered him to his Wolverhampton success in May, is back aboard.
HUNNI: 7:30pm Rubbing House Handicap
Tom Clover’s yard are operating at a creditable 17% strike-rate of late and his duel-Newmarket winner from last season makes just her third appearance of the year and gets a first run outside of Suffolk since June 2020.
She finished fourth here before off a 3lbs higher mark and in-form Laura Pearson is jocked up with her mount now racing without headgear.
Down sizably in grade, this looks a decent opportunity to run back to form.
