Newmarket Saturday

[chrisbruce]

Ive been given a tip for the CESAREWITCH which if I remember is a very hard race to predict.

the tip is  -  Askar Tau -  which is also the favourite at 5-1. The draw is said to be not favourable so I wondered what opinions on here were before taking the plunge.

I also think new approach is different class to his opposition in the champion stakes but again would welcome opinions.

lay new approach.  not the right conditions or distance

Aska Tau must have a great chance but 5/1 in such a hard race is not a great price, i would try and get a price with a bookie who gives you the bigger odds if it drifts, last years winner Leg spinner runs but the jockey rides Arc Bleu, trainer loves a gamble and this may be backed big tomorrow,


i cant see the conditions bothering New Approach tomorrow, loves Newmarket which is very important here. i never thought he would get the 12f but he did get it easy so cant see 10f bothering him, my concern would be he has had a bit of leg trouble and he hasnt settled in a few races, but he has always had problems settling and still only ever been beaten by the Duke of Marmalade and Henry the Navigator, i wouldt take evens myself but will back it if i can get 7/4

I cant have askar tau at all.The price is way to short and i dont like backing 3 year old's in this race. Going on past winners you need a battle hardened handicaper,jumps trainers have a reasonable record in this race so i'll have a go with Liberate,Mamlook and Arc Bleu against the field.
