Art Market at Newmarket 13:40 tips, betting, and prediction

First out of the gate in our betting preview is 'Art Market,' a promising 3-year-old gelding trained by W J Haggas and ridden by Cieren Fallon. They'll be running in the Race 2 JCB Handicap over 7 furlongs at Newmarket with the going described as 'Good'. Set to go off at a value price of 4.5, Art Market shows solid recent form having won their last outing, which also happened to be at Newmarket over this very distance. With both the jockey and trainer showing decent form recently, this horse seems well-prepped for a repeat performance. Given Fallon's current form and Haggas's knack for getting the best out of his charges at Newmarket, Art Market could be the one to back. Next up, we have 'Fondo Blanco,' another 3-year-old, this time under the care of R Varian with Ray Dawson in the saddle. Competing in the same race and conditions, Fondo Blanco is listed at a short price of 3.5. Despite not having any wins in the last 30 days, the colt's overall form isn't to be sniffed at, and Varian's training prowess could shine through on race day. The combination with Dawson hasn't set the world alight recently, but a turnaround isn't out of the question. Rounding out our top three is 'Original Outlaw', trained by R M Beckett and piloted by R Kingscote. This gelding also competes over the same course and distance, with recent form not as prominent as the top two picks. Nonetheless, priced at a longer 7.5, there could be value for bettors looking for a potential upset. Though Kingscote and Beckett haven't been lighting up the stats recently, they’re capable of pulling a surprise. While Miss Collada might catch some eyes at a long price of 23, the standout here is still Art Market, predicted to shine based on solid recent performances and strong support from the trainer-jockey combo. Best of luck to all bettors, remember to gamble responsibly!
