- Horse Betting Tips for Newcastle and Leicester on Jan 12
Horse racing betting action on January 12 focuses on races at the likes of Catterick Bridge, Chelmsford City, Leicester, and Newcastle.
Horse racing action on January 12 is quite busy with the racecourses like Catterick Bridge, Chelmsford City, Leicester, and Newcastle involved in the action. As a result, horse betting interest will also be highly elevated owing to the history of these courses.
Catterick
Located in North Yorkshire, Catterick plays host to a lot of flat races throughout the year. The highlight of the Catterick events would be the Friday Ladies Evening meeting, which takes place in August. Winter months usually see the National Hunt fixtures being held at this track.
January 12 does not see any standout horse racing betting related races being held at this track apart from two events – W. L. And Hector Christie Memorial Handicap Chase and North Yorkshire Grand National Handicap Chase. Mixboy is seen as the favourite for the former, while horse racing tips predict a tougher contest for the latter but Mysteree is seen as a candidate for a win.
Going is good to soft.
13:20 - THE BAY OAK won at Catterick on January 1st, 2017. Before that, he had amazing results in 2016, being runner up at Chepstow on December 3, winning at Sedgefield on November 22. The runner was also runner up at Sedgefield on November 8. The 8-year-old bay gelding goes against Old Salt and Nobuttaboy, two great rivals.
13:50 - MIXBOY is a 7-year-old grey gelding trained by K Dalgeish. Won at Musselburgh on January 3rd, won at Sedgefield on September 27 after a 98-day break and also won at Cartmel in July. Had quite a few breaks, but he also had impressive results.
Chelmsford
Racing has been taking place at Chelmsford only since 2015 after a six-year absence. The track itself has been hosting races only since 2008. Even though it cannot compete with other venues in terms of history, horse racing odds are plenty for the Chelmsford events. On January 12, majority of the events will be overshadowed by the Totequadpot Handicap at 19:00. Byres Road has the potential to come out successful amongst 18 runners.
Going is standard. No data available regarding the draw.
17:50 - BALTIC PRINCE (10/3) won at Kempton on November 30. Was second at the same racecourse on December 20, runner up at Leicester on October 24, and has been showing a great form as of late. The 7-year-old bay gelding trained by A W Carroll goes against Garter (4/10) and Rivers of Asia (5/1).
18:25 - ALKASHAAF (11/8) was 3rd at Newcastle on January 3rd and won at Chelmsford on December 19. Was 4th at Kempton at the beginning of December. Tailor's Row (15/8) is his main rival.
Leicester
Leicester hosts host racing action throughout the year as a result of being a dual purpose course. Bet online interest will be huge when it comes to the King Richard III Stakes in April. Today, however, there are no such races. In fact, there is only one race in the Class 3 on January 12. There is little doubt that Leicester Annual Badge Holders Chase at 14:40 will be a huge talking point amongst the punters. The best odds for a win are likely to be for Oliver's Hill.
Going is good-good to firm in places (chase) and soft-good to soft in places (hurdle).
13:05 - CAPRICE D'ANGLAIS won at Hereford on December 19 and at Huntingdon on December 26. Trainer Richard Hobson did a great job to improve his performances and the 5-year-old grey gelding goes against Fingers Crossed and Deise Vu.
15:40 - TOP VILLE VEN won at Ludlow on December 21, producing a big surprise to everyone. The odds were against him as the 5-year-old hasn't raced in a while, but he's our choice this time as he showed a stunning form.
Newcastle
Newcastle hosts some of the biggest events today. The Sunbets.co.uk Handicap at 16:30 will be the undoubted favourite amongst the horse racing tips, which can predict a success for Steel Train on this track rated as standard.
Going is standard. No data is available for the All-Weather track.
14:00 - SEPTEMBER ISSUE was 2nd at Kempton on January 6, had a weak race at Chelmsford on December 1st but he maintained interesting results throughout 2016.
