Ascot and Haydock Top Horse Racing Betting Tips on December 17

Jonathan Nixon

Ascot and Haydock are the top events on December 17 but horse racing betting also focuses on the Lingfield and Newcastle events.

Ascot is once again involved in horse racing in the United Kingdom. December 17 also sees horse betting related interest on races taking place at Haydock, Lingfield, and Newcastle. While these courses are undoubtedly excellent, Ascot clearly remains as the finest course involved today.

Ascot

An immensely prestigious racecourse, Ascot shows its class by hosting a Grade 1 JLT Long Walk Hurdle at 14:25. One of the greatest horses in recent years, Thistlecrack, won this event last year. After having achieved six consecutive wins, Unowhatimeanharry is the favourite for victory this year according to the latest horse racing betting tips. The course is rated from good to soft for all the events taking place today.

The Grade 3 Wessex Youth Trust Handicap Hurdle at 15:35 will also be of huge interest for punters. Willow's Saviour and Le Rocher carry excellent form coming into the event. Even though last year’s winner Sternrubin is coming in to defend the title, horse racing tips are likely to favour the duo with a better form.

Going is good to soft.

12:40 - HEY BILL won at Worcester on October 19 and at Southwell on November 29. He's seen a lot of improvement lately and can definitely defeat Ballinure, his greatest contender.

13:15 - TOP NOTCH won at Plumpton on November 28 and at Warwick on November 16. He was 3rd at Uttoxeter on October 28. The 5-year-old bay gelding goes against Fletchers Flyer, one of the most anticipated runners in this Class 2 race.

15:35 - BRAIN POWER is a 5-year-old who's seen a victory at Sandown on December 3 and is showing much potential. Diego Du Charmil is his main contender.

Haydock

Haydock is also an extremely popular racecourse in the United Kingdom. The listed Abram Mares' Novices' Hurdle at 14:05 will be an event to watch in terms of the horse racing odds. Coillte Lass, Colin's Sister, and Kalaniti all come into the event in good form. Other popular races would be the Racing Uk Anywhere Novices' Chase and Tommy Whittle Handicap Chase.

Going is soft.

12:20 - CLOUDY DREAM won at Carlisle on October 20 and at Haydock on November 18. Top Notch is another great runner with recent successes and can be counted as a big rival for Cloudy Dream.

15:15 - EL TERREMOTO is among the favourites in this Class 2 race. He won at Stratford on October 27 and at Haydock on November 19. The 4-year-old bay gelding has seen much improvement as of late and is expected to go strong against Clyine, his main rival.

Lingfield

Lingfield host all three types of horse races – flat, all-weather, and the National Hunt. For this reason, it is immensely important in the bet online calendar. On December 17, there will be a lot of interest on the Betway Quebec Stakes at 14:35. It is a listed event which is expected to see Grendisar rated as one of the favourites for a win. Looking beyond this race, Download The Betway App Handicap may be a contender for a top event in the horse racing betting interest at Lingfield today.

Going is standard. Low numbers are best in races up to a mile.

12:50 - CLIFF FACE won at Kempton on November 16 and was 5th at the same racecourse on November 23, but her form is improving. The 3-year-old bay filly had a stunning summer, winning a couple of times and scoring a runner-up at Catterick on August 12.

14:00 - BARGAIN BUY won at Lingfield on November 30 and is expected to perform well here.

Newcastle

A historic track in the United Kingdom, the best odds for Newcastle events will be on the Vertemam Twitter Chase and Protecting Your Wealth Handicap Chase.

Going is soft.

12:35 - BAYWING is expected to do a great race. The 7-year-old brown gelding had a stunning end of 2015 and started 2016 with a victory. We believe it's coming strong. Battle of Shiloh is his main rival in this Class 3 race.
