Best Bets: Friday 2 August

Deanridge Banger (Trap 6) - 19:33 Romford

Romford plays host to its usual open race fare also this evening and DEANRIDGE BANGER (Trap 6) is fancied to continue the good recent work at 19.33. The Crayford raider took another step forward when bolting up in a C&D event last week, making a very swift exit from the boxes and more of the same may well be enough for further success.

Salacres Magnier (Trap 5) - 20:13 Nottingham

A leap of faith is required in supporting SALACRES MAGNIER (Trap 5, 20.13) on the back of some heavy defeats, yet his exploits on the clock don’t read any worse than those of his rivals and a better showing can be anticipated. The son of Droopys Jet has a fast break in his locker and a clear run can see him home in front.

Southfield Bea (Trap 2) - 20:21 Romford

The lack of a look around Romford is a slight concern for SOUTHFIELD BEA (Trap 2, 20.21) but the level of form achieved at Swindon has been well-above average and he looks worth siding to continue the good work. A facile winner of each of his 2 starts in open company a repeat here should see him difficult to beat.
