Newmarket 1.50 Ancient Wisdom stands out a bit on ratings but the price tells you as much , nothing else stands out

Newmarket 2.25 A race just to watch with plenty of unexposed 2 year olds and anything can take a step forwards

Newmarket 3.00 I do think Woodhay Wonder is still improving but the rain and softening ground puts me off. Dark Vintage looks interesting , he has contested to very deep races since coming over from the USA ; this 6f will be ideal and his smart half-brother Kerdos acts on it and his dam recorded her only win on soft. Advised Bet Dark Vintage 1/2 pt ew @ 9’1 Betvictor offering 5 places

Newmarket 3.35 Hamish should be the one to beat if repeating the form of his last run , however Arrest should have the ground very much in his favour with all the rain around and he looks a highly viable alternative. Advised Bet Arrest 1pt win @ 7’2
