Fridays best bets!!

We have busy day on Friday with no less than four claiming races with two at each meeting .
Lingfield 1.50 ) Lingfield 2.50 ) Wolverhampton 4.40 ) Wolverhampton 6.10 ) 


Both Lingfield races have small fields with just 6 runners in each race .Will be concentrating on the two Wolverhampton races for the days best bets. 


1.50 LINGFIELD 5F 3-Y-0 CLAIMING STAKES CLASS 6 
Just six runners declared for very weak looking 5F claiming stakes .Which looks two horse race between Redair & Strike A Pose .


Redair : Consistent filly won on debut in 2 year old maiden at Kempton back in March,Hasn't won since though has finished second three times ,including finishing second in 6 furlong claimer back in October .


Strike A Pose : Did show some promise on debut finishing 8th of 12 in what looked decent looking 6F maiden at Lingfield behind the Mark Johnston trained Switzerland .


VERDICT : Redair is 13LB clear on official handicap ratings and looks the one to beat in weak race .Strike A Pose takes drop in class into claiming company and looks open to improvement after one start,though the shorter trip has to be question mark.Not betting race for me ,though Redair is most likely winner.


(1) REDAIR (2) STRIKE A POSE

2.50 LINGFIELD 7F CLASSIFIED CLAIMING STAKES 0-75 CLASS 6
Another small field at Lingfield with just six runners declared for 7F classified claimer .This looks another two horse race with Satwa Laird & Fishforcompliments looking the main two contenders.


Satwa Laird : Finished fair third for new trainer Dave Simcock off mark 73 over C&D at Lingfield in 7F handicap earlier this month.Slightly disappointing last time in 1 mile handicap at Kempton when finishing well beaten  seventh .Will be suited dropping into claiming company for first time.


Fishforcompliments :Consistent type, though not easiest horse to win with 3 wins from 61 starts .Finished placed on his last three starts in claiming company and should be thereabouts again .


VERDICT : Satwa Laird taking drop in class into claiming company for first time  is narrowly favoured over Fishforcompliments ,though both horses  have poor strike rates,and again not betting race for me .


(1) SATWA LAIRD (2) FISHFORCOMPLIMENTS

4.40 WOLVERHAMPTON 5F CLAIMING STAKES CLASS 6 .
Interesting looking sprint claimer with 8 runners declared for 5F claimer at Wolverhampton with three main contenders ,Where's Riley ,Ebraam and Master Of Disguise .


Where's Riley : Good record on fibresand at Southwell winning 6 times from 15 starts ,not so good on polytrack with 1 win from 8 starts.The only win coming in 5 furlong seller at Lingfield back in December .Has to respected at these weights though looks better horse on fibresand.


Ebraam : Prolific winner over the years, winning 10 times on polyrack with five wins here at Wolverhampton .Won twice in 2011 including winning 6F class 4 handicap at Kempton off mark 84 .Looked  disappointing last time when only finishing fourth in 6F seller here at Wolverhampton ,though should improve for that run (first run for 5 months )


Master Of Disguise: C&D winner in claimer at Wolverhampton back in October .Finished fair second last time in 6 furlong seller at Wolverhampton behind Cape Of Storms with Ebraam back in fourth .Will be suited dropping back in trip ,all three career wins coming over 5 furlongs .


VERDICT :Ebraam is best in at the weights on official handicap ratings,though has to reverse form with Master Of Disguise on 5LB worse terms ,though did seem to pull very hard that day and will be big danger if settling better.


Where's Riley has shown bits and pieces of form on poly track ,though looks far better on fibresand and has never shown much here at Wolverhampton finishing unplaced on all four occasions.


MASTER OF DISGUISE looks more solid than his two main rivals  having put in two good runs here at Wolverhampton over 6F recently, finishing close fourth of mark 78 and second in seller last time.The return to 5 furlongs should also suit  .

 6.10 WOLVERHAMPTON 1 MILE CLASSIFIED CLAIMER CLASS 6
Nine runners declared for 1 mile classified claiming stakes at Wolverhampton.This looks very competitive claimer ,the main contenders look to be Spinning Ridge ,Ajdaad & Pipers Piping .


Pipers Piping : Five time course winner here at Wolverhampton .Finished fair second on Tuesday at Southwell in 1 mile handicap off mark 65 .Will be suited returning to his favourite track .


Spinning Ridge : Reliable sort won 4 handicaps in 2011.Won claimer at Kempton earlier this month  beating Marajaa by head .Finished decent fourth in above average 1 mile claimer at Lingfield on Wednesday behind Munsarim .Should go well in this easier race.


Ajdaad :Dual C&D winner here at Wolverhampton .Won twice this winter including winning over C&D in handicap in November off mark  65.Also won seller over 1 mile at Lingfield in December beating Pipers Piping by head .Been bit disappointing on  last two starts at Lingfield


VERDICT :Not great deal to separate the three main contenders at these weights ,though SPINNING RIDGE has the best recent form and ran good fourth in better claiming race at Lingfield on Wednesday.


Pipers Pipping rates as main danger after finishing fair second at Southwell last time with Keiron Fallon looking interesting jockey booking .
