Horse racing tips: Wednesday selections from Newsboy for cards at Catterick, Kempton, Nottingham and Bangor
Newsboy's Nap selection for Wednesday, October 4, is the Simon & Ed Crisford-trained Tarraff at Catterick (5.20). The next best is Bangor runner Gambie Tiep (2.35)
TARRAFF (5.20, nap) is taken to continue the good end to the season for Simon and Ed Crisford in the Racing Again 21st October Handicap at Catterick on Wednesday.
She needed six attempts to break her maiden but, now that she has, could be the type to go on a run.
Having performed well in her first three races, she was sent off odds-on for a Kempton novice event when trying to make all but was headed close home.
It was a different story when she encountered soft ground for the first time at Leicester, powering clear a long way from home to win by three and a half lengths.
The daughter of Lope De Vega has been upped 6lb in the weights, but she could be the type to really progress with cut in the ground.
Put your faith in GAMBIE TIEP (2.35, nb) in the Horseradish Catering & Events Novices' Handicap Chase at Bangor.
Ben Pauling's seven-year-old boasts three wins from six runs this season, with the latest coming at Fontwell last month.
He was then leading and going well when unseating his rider in a handicap chase at Plumpton 10 days ago but is expected to be bang there again today off the same mark.
