Timeform Radio Tips: Wednesday November 14

Waking Warrior can win at Southwell.

Timeform's Stephen Molyneux suggests a number of bets for Wednesday's racing...

Richard Lee has his string in fine form and hopefully Milo Milan can keep up the good work in the 13:30 at Bangor. He's not always looked the most fluent over the larger obstacles but with just the five starts under his belt it would be harsh to crab him too much, and crucially he did win when reappearing around this time last year, getting the better of My Syntax at this track. He faced the odd stiff assignment subsequently which in part explains his failure to build on that, but he reappears just 6 lb higher than for that success and with doubts hanging over the majority of his rivals, he is worth supporting at 4.7.

There are a couple of very competitive handicaps at Southwell that look to have worthy favourites in both. The one I am going to side with is Waking Warrior in the 15:20 who has two wins from three starts at Southwell to his name and his latest victory couldn't have worked out any better. He beat Half A Billion and Victorian Bounty with a deal of authority last time, both of whom have won since, and although the handicapper has shoved Kevin Ryan's charge up 8 lb, that is largely offset by his rider's claim and he's been competitive off higher marks in the past in anycase.  

For those of you who like a short-priced double then Irish Jugger (12.20) and Italian Riviera (15.50) both look to have excellent chances in their respective races at Southwell. Both are running under penalties for recent wins and if anything the races they contest today are weaker than the ones they won. The double can be placed on Betfair via the new fixed odds betting product.
