Zipping over to Catterick for the 'Race 4 Download The Raceday Ready App Novice Stakes' at a breezy 15:35, keep an eye on the 3-year-old gelding Zubaru, our predicted winner. With a knack for the 'Good to firm' going and attempting a quick 5f dash this Friday, Zubaru, under the guidance of jockey Darragh Keenan and trainer George Scott, is sporting a lively price of 3.5. Recent form may not set the world on fire with no wins logged recently, but remember, the horse's youthful age means there's still plenty of time to mature like a fine wine! Trainer George Scott's recent form looks decent with a strike rate of about 20% in the last 30 days, and considering the combination with Keenan which looks promising, there's a reason Zubaru's inching toward favouritism! Hard on Zubaru's hooves is Farandaway, yet another 3-year-old gelding, out at a slightly longer price of 5.5. Oliver Stammers in the saddle and Grant Tuer calling the shots, this contender shows some potential despite a quiet recent record. Not quite as backed by recent performance stats, the trainer has been hitting below 10% wins recently, making it a bit of a longer shot but still one to watch. Then there's Nad Alshiba Snow, stepping out with jockey D Nolan and trainer R M H Cowell, also priced at 5.5. This filly, like her competitors, lacks a significant win recently but sports a promising setup, and given Cowell's knack for getting 18% winners in the last six months, could surprise. A quick nod to the horse with the longest odds, Memphisatmidnight at a lengthy 15, might just offer a fairy-tale finish if the stars align. But the spotlight today is firmly on Zubaru. He's showing strong signs of hoisting the trophy at Catterick. Best of luck, and remember to bet sensibly, folks! Prices correct as of today.
