A busy Wednesday and Carlisle's biggest meeting of the flat season takes centre stage. Here are the thoughts of our Racing Factors tipster.
Carlisle

Billyb had shown some good form for his previous stable only last season, however after a couple of below par runs he was switched to his current yard for the start of this term. He ran a cracker at York on his seasonal reappearance in May, finishing 5th of 18, just looking a shade ring rusty. He showed the benefit of that run by winning over 7 1/2f at Beverly next time, travelling strongly and putting the race to bed 2f out. He comes into today's race off a mark of 80, which is still 8lb below his last season high rating, so if his stable have started to find the key to him, Billyb could well be the type to win a few more handicaps for them. Billyb rates a 4 star win Pick.
