HAYDOCK

Battle Of Wills

2.00pm
9/4 from 100/30

BATTLE OF WILLS could get punters off to the perfect start in the opener at Haydock Park. The progressive 3yo won his two of his first three handicaps before bumping into what looks to be a seriously well handicapped sort last time out. He sticks to 1m4f today, which he was upped to last time, and it may still be that this brings out improvement in him.

King Of The Sand

6.05pm
4/1 from 11/2

KING OF THE SAND looked in rude health when scooting clear at Brighton two starts back. He was turned over at short odds when turned out under a penalty, but that was on the all-weather, so you can certainly see why punters are willing to give Gary Moore's charge, who has the assistence of leading lady amateur Miss Becky Smith, another go today back on turf.

️ So @GetYourTipsOut asked us to get an update on 2yo MAN OF THE NIGHT for you all

He makes his debut at @NewburyRacing this evening and is well regarded!

Plus….another exciting 2yo for your notebooks! @MprUpdates#ManOfTheNight #VenturaBounty #AskRichard pic.twitter.com/UIfJSZixTP

NEWBURY

Shorter Skirt

8.00pm
8/1 from 14/1

SHORTER SKIRT is sliding at the weights following a couple of down the field performances but this is her first time getting proper quick ground since running Richard Hannon's talented Aim Power close at Windsor. Her 3yo allowance is handy too, enabling her to receive weight from all her rivals.
