talkSPORT tips – Saturday best racing bets and expert advice on Newmarket & Curragh

Wait 5 sec.

We have some excellent racing to look forward to on Saturday as there are seven meetings across Britain and Ireland.They race at Haydock, the Curragh, Listowel, Ripon, Market Rasen and Southwell, but the best of the action comes from Newmarket.Five of the seven races are open exclusively to juveniles and that includes two Group 1s; the Cheveley Park Stakes and the Middle Park Stakes. Don’t forget about the Royal Lodge though, as there could be some 2027 Classic clues on offer.Our expert has had a close look at Saturday’s cards and selected three strong fancies to follow, including a Charlie Appleby runner in the Royal Lodge who should appreciate the drop back in trip and a return to winning ways could be on the cards with that in mind.talkSPORT BET Betting Offer – Get up to £30 in free bets – CLAIM HERE*Saturday’s tips13:55 Newmarket – Quest For Stars14:27 Newmarket – Sun Goddess15:10 Curragh – Noble Exhibit13:55 Newmarket – Quest For StarsIt’s hard to ignore Charlie Appleby at the moment, as his recent form has been excellent. That trend is expected to continue at Newmarket this weekend, a track at which he usually does well, and it would be dangerous to overlook the talented QUEST FOR STARS here.This son of Sea The Stars is out of a French Listed winner and the €700,000 purchase made the perfect start to his career when winning a Doncaster novice on his debut in July. Scoring under a penalty at Sandown next time, the fourth has boosted the form by winning since.He then landed a Listed contest over this trip at Salisbury and failed to see out the extra furlong when third behind an impressive winner in an Irish Group 1 last time. This task looks easier and he can return to winning ways now back over a mile, with Loughnane on board.14:27 Newmarket – Sun GoddessThe Cheveley Park Stakes has been won by Aidan O’Brien six times in the last decade and that trend is likely to continue this year. Ballydoyle will be represented by the outstanding juvenile filly of the season, SUN GODDESS, and she’s expected to oblige with little fuss.She made her debut over 5f at Naas in May and might have won with another stride or two, despite looking very green at a key stage. Sun Goddess left that run well behind when bolting up over this trip at the Curragh next time and ran well to finish second in the Albany.Her form has reached another level since then however and she won a Group 2 at the Curragh, before landing the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes. Last seen winning the Moyglare by a wide margin, the daughter of Sioux Nation can land a third top level contest here.15:10 Curragh – Noble ExhibitIt’s very difficult to oppose Aidan O’Brien in the Beresford Stakes, as he has won the mile Group 2 contest a whopping 22 times in the last 30 years. He provides three of the six runners this year and Wayne Lordan has picked NOBLE EXHIBIT over his stablemates.That looks like a sensible decision, as the well-bred son of Frankel showed some promise when finishing third on his debut, despite needing the run. Taking a massive step forward at Punchestown next time, he produced an impressive performance to get off the mark.O’Brien’s colt was always up with the pace and once Lordan asked for an effort, he pulled clear to score by seven lengths.Clearly he possesses a decent engine and it’s likely that there is plenty more to come from this lightly raced sort.talkSPORT BET Betting Offer – Get up to £30 in free bets – CLAIM HERE*All odds correct at time of writing.Remember to gamble responsiblyA responsible gambler is someone who:Establishes time and monetary limits before playingOnly gambles with money they can afford to loseNever chase their lossesDoesn’t gamble if they’re upset, angry or depressedGamcare – www.gamcare.org.ukFind our detailed guide on responsible gambling practices here.For help with a gambling problem, call the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 or go to www.gamstop.co.uk to be excluded from all UK-regulated gambling websites.*18+ New customers only.
