Let's take a peek at the top picks for the 'Race 6 Best Odds Guaranteed At BetMGM Handicap' at Newcastle, hitting the tracks at 17:45. It's a 7f 14y run on standard AW - Tapeta, where some spirited competitors will be squaring off. We kick off with the top-seeded fancied runner, 'Blufferonthebus', managed by trainer Craig Lidster and ridden by Pierre-Louis Jamin. This 4-year-old filly stands out with a live price of 7, indicating a valuable bet. Let's dive into the team's recent performance: the pair have been clocking up wins with a smashing 1.00 strike rate in the last 30 days. Moreover, Blufferonthebus is familiar territory, boasting wins at both course and distance in the near past. With these potent factors, her top billing in the race is not just by chance, making her the standout prediction for a triumph. Next, there's the 7-year-old gelding 'Alpine Sierra' under trainer J S Goldie with jockey Lauren Young in the saddle. Despite having a more modest recent form with no wins in the last 30 days, Alpine has shown some promise in the past. The current price is 5.5, a midway bet where opportunity meets risk. It appears this runner might carry some dark horse energy, just needing the right day to make a significant showing. Our third highlight is 'Front Gunner', another 4-year-old gelding, paired with jockey T Eaves and guided by Mrs A Duffield. He's entering this contest at odds of 8.5, reflecting a cautiously optimistic outlook. Notably, Front Gunner has shown a commendable adaptability to the course and distance, and despite not dazzling recently, has kept competitive, which could prove crucial in a tight field. While all eyes are on the current form and historical performance, putting a punt down on Blufferonthebus' might just make your day at the Newcastle track. Best of luck, and remember, always bet responsibly!
