Timeform In-Play Hints: Heard to get an easy ride?

Today's In-Play Hints come from Exeter

Timeform guide you through a couple of races at Exeter from an in-running angle.

Race: 14:40 Exeter- 2m 3f Handicap Hurdle

Pace Forecast: Strongly contested.

Specific Pace Hint: A proliferation of possible pace-forcers could count against Quinte Du Chatelet, who usually races close up: Such a hotly-contested pace as is on the cards here may be to the benefit of Shannon Spirit who tends to come from behind.

Individual Price Hint:  Ballinahow Star traded at more than 5 times BSP and 2 times BSP when winning on 2 of its last 3 starts: Shannon Spirit traded at 10% or less of BSP, 25% or less of BSP and 50% or less of BSP on 3 of its last 5 starts.

Race: 16:40 Exeter- 2m 1f Handicap Hurdle

Pace Forecast: Weakly contested.

Specific Pace Hint: Cottage Acre is the only confirmed pace-forcer. Mr Bingley has been most forwardly placed in recent starts of those in the front half of the betting forecast: Gizzit has been furthest from the pace in recent starts of the better-fancied horses.

Individual Price Hint: Cottage Acre traded at 10% or less of BSP and 50% or less of BSP 3 times on 4 of its last 5 starts: Mr Bingley traded at 10% or less of BSP, 25% or less of BSP and 50% or less of BSP on 3 of its last 5 starts.
