Horse Racing Tips

Saturday 11th February - Horse Racing Trends and Tips


The big horse race of the day is the Betfair Hurdle, which a handicap run over 2miles. This is one of the premier handicap hurdles of the National Hunt racing season. The majority of winners of this race tend to go on to run at the Cheltenham Festival. A key stat to start with is the 25/26 winners have been 7 or younger, so don't even consider a horse that is old than 7, the younger horses have won 50% of the races in recent years, so can go to a horse that is progressing. Teddy Blue looks really progressive in that race, Gary Moore has won the race three times and Teddy Blue did run in the Triumph last year finishing behind Icare Allen but is carrying a lot less race and has surely being laid out for this race, like a lot of horses will have been. This could be a blot in the handicap. We would back all four horses that match the horse racing trends each way as you can get up to 6 places at a lot of the bookmakers for the Betfair Hurdle. In the 3:00 Fanambule Silvola was the only horse to result on the trends and the horse won the race last year at a lot shorter odds, the 11/2 looks a fair old price. Enjoy todays racing!
