- Racing Tips – Racingbreaks Ryder deserves another chance at Goodwood
Saturday was tough and to be honest, most of this month has been tough. Both selections were underwhelming yesterday and I don't have any excuses to highlight in regards to their performances on the day.
Connections will be disappointed with Live In The Dream, I was confident on that one getting the job done yesterday without any real fuss. My other selection Witch Hunter traveled up well and looked like she was going to swoop past at one point, she found little of the bridle and her chances of winning were over in a flash.
Sunday's racing isn't great and we are limited to just the three meetings within the UK and Ireland.
Racingbreaks Ryder 4/1 – Goodwood 2:10
I tipped this horse on the thread not long ago and although letting me down on the day, I feel he is worth another roll of the dice in this contest.
The handicapper has given Racingbreaks Ryder every chance having dropped him 8lb in three runs this season, two of which have come after his latest run which was probably his best effort this season. Jockey William Buick who rode last time retains the ride which is another positive going into this race.
My selection completed a four-timer at Ascot just over a year ago, his form pretty much spiraled after that and it's taken some time for this horse to show signs of a return to form. Nevertheless, in his most recent race over the same course and distance 16 days ago, he showed signs of improvement by finishing strongly despite starting slowly and finding himself a fair distance behind the main pack. If he can build on that effort and break on terms, he has every chance of returning to winning ways.
Toimy Son is another horse who I've tipped on here in recent times, he too has been running well recently. Toimy Son finished ahead of my selection when the pair met last time out at Goodwood. Toimy Son had first run on my selection that day and is drawn widest for this particular contest which makes things a lot harder which is why I opted to avoid him this time out.
