Saturday racing tips: A Saturday longshot to fill your pockets at Newcastle from Jack Keene
Jack The Tipper shares an each-way bet to die for on Saturday, February 23
THE weather this winter has been absolutely ridiculous.
Newcastle's Eider Chase, normally a brutal stamina test, looks set to be run on good ground for the first time since records began!
I'm going to take a chance on the lightly-raced JUST YOUR TYPE (2.40 Newcastle) in the £80,000 marathon.
Charlie Longsdon's progressive mare was on course to register an emphatic victory in a good race over 3m at Exeter last time when she came down two out.
It's not the ideal preparation for a race like this, but she had been assured in the jumping department previously and I'm certain she's better than her mark.
She takes a big step up in trip here, but on breeding (from the family of high-class stayers Golden Chieftain and Boychuk) she could relish it.
