Thursday horse racing tips

  • TAUNTON
    1.40: Innamorato 11/2 each-way (1pt)
    3.25: Jack Hyde 3/1 (1pt)

Innamorato

Has a great chance to win under in-form jockey Harry Cobden who’s operating at a 43% strike-rate coming into this while trainer Paul Nicholls has nine wins from 26 runners in the last two weeks.

This Owners Group horse has disappointed so far in his first two runs over hurdles in Britain but has been expected to do much better on French form.

Gets a huge allowance as a four-year-old in this field and there’s not much else to shout about in this contest either.

In with a shout of a place at least and should improve.

Jack Hyde

Had a wind op in January and been off since November to find the right race and waiting to be ready for a return after four runs between September and November.

Consistent in some tough races including in Grade 2 novice company so this looks much more winnable after a decent second place last time out at Cheltenham behind French Emperor.
