Fontwell Class 1 Race Dominates Horse Racing Betting on Feb 26

Jonathan Nixon

Fontwell dominates the horse racing betting action on February 25 with its leading event, but races also take place at Southwell.

After a racing action that saw several listed and Class 1 events held on February 25, the United Kingdom horse racing calendar continues with the Fontwell Park and Southwell. The races at these venues on February 26 are expected to attract plenty of bet online interest.

Fontwell betting tip

Fontwell racecourse is situated in West Sussex. National Hunt races take place at Fontwell throughout the year. Undoubtedly, the highlight of this racecourse has to be the National Spirit Handicap Hurdle. It is not surprising that a huge number of horse racing betting interest happens to surround this event on February 26. This event is named after National Spirit, who was immensely successful at Fontwell before going on to win the Champion Hurdle two times.

Offering a pursue of £45,560, this event features 14 runners competing on a soft track over a distance of 2 miles and 3 furlongs. Last year’s winner Lil Rockerfeller is back in contention for the event. He managed to win the race which only featured 8 runners. Due to the higher competition this time around, horse racing betting tips are essential to succeed. Lil Rockerfeller remains a favourite to succeed, but Different Gravey is one of the candidates to provide competition for the six-year-old chestnut gelding.

The second race of prominence, in terms of the horse racing betting, could be the Toteplacepot Josh Gifford Memorial Novices' Chase at 14:00. Frodon not only comes into the race has the highest rated horse, but he is also best placed to succeed in the event.

Going is soft.

15:00 - LE ROCHER won at Uttoxeter on January 28 and was second at Haydock on mid-December. The 7-year-old bay gelding goes against the Organist, which is by far his main rival.

15:30 - SOLIGHOSTER won at Towcester on February 15, at Fontwell on January 29, and was second at Huntingdon on December 26. The 5-year-old chestnut gelding is showing an astonishing form and is our pick in this Class 4 race.

Southwell betting tip

Southwell happens to be one of the busiest racecourses in terms of horse racing odds throughout the calendar year. The venue primarily hosts jump races on its all-weather track, which is unique because of the Fibresand track. The strong kickback provided by this track makes it harder to master without experience. The Infinity Racing Handicap Hurdle at 16:10 happens to be the pinnacle event, according to horse racing tips. For Instance is a favourite for the event, but Some Kinda Lama is also best placed based on recent form. The reason for the higher competition for the best odds is the pursue of £6,330.

Going is good to soft.

14:10 - TRUCKERS HIGHWAY had a disappointing race at Ludlow on February 8, but his victory at the same racecourse on January 19 showed that he has an ace up the sleeve. The 8-year-old bay gelding trained by Groucott is our choice here.

17:10 - CARLOS DU FRUITIER won at Warwick on January 26. He didn't run too much as of late, but he will need to face some tough runners: Getaway Whiskey and Mon Palois.
