A busy Thursday's racing and here are the thoughts of our Racing Factors Long Shot tipster.
Newcastle
J: S D Bowen
T: W J Haggas
Trainer William Haggas has a very decent 42% Racing Factors rating at Newcastle and he send a very interesting contender there in the shape of Elnajmm. A lightly raced gelding, he has only had the 4 career starts, finishing 2nd on the first three occasions and then winning on his last start in a 3-runner race and at odds of 1-7 on at Wolverhampton. Some of Elnajmm's form has worked out extremely well including when finishing 1 place infront of the now 108 rated English Oak and a short-head behind the now 105 rated Alsakib. Given his overall profile, Elnajmm could be a horse with a lot of improvement to come and a handicap mark of 85 may grossly underestimate his ability. Elnajmm rates a 5 star each way Pick.
