Paul Ferguson has one selection for us on Thursday; Straidnahanna in the Market Rasen 13:00. Compare odds and bet.
Despite remaining a maiden after nine starts under rules Straidnahanna (13:00) remains capable of winning races over fences and is taken to land the novices’ handicap chase at Market Rasen on Thursday.
Sue Smith’s grey showed useful form on a couple of occasions last season and improved on his chase debut to finish third in a decent event at Carlisle at the start of the month.
The step back up in trip will suit and the former Irish points winner can strike under in-form jockey Gavin Sheehan. The selection was available at 9-2 overnight with Ladbrokes.
Thursday’s selection:
13:00 Market Rasen: Straidnahanna; 9/2 Ladbrokes
