Richard Fahey Saturday runners: Horse-by-horse guide


Our columnists with a horse-by-horse guide to his Saturday runners at Ayr, Newmarket, Chester and Newcastle.

Ayr

13:55 Ecureuil Secret

I’m just a fraction worried he’s going to need it after a year off. It’s great to have him back and he’s going OK at home but I’m just worried this is two weeks’ too soon for him but I hope I’m wrong.

16:50 Cotai Belle

She’s been running well all season without winning and I’d love to see her get her head in front but she was third from this mark at Thirsk last time and we had no excuses.

16:52 First Time

He got back on track at York last time, running very well. He can just be a little lazy so I’m putting a visor on him to try and see if that helps. We’ve a good draw in one and it wouldn’t surprise me at all to see him go very close.

Newcastle

18:30 Bonnie's Boy

He ran very well at York last time and takes a drop down in grade on Saturday. He’s a course-and-distance winner and has a lot going for him on Saturday.

19:00 Masai Angel

He’s been a very disappointing horse. He has a tendency to be keen in his races and ran no race at all at Southwell last time. He has plenty to prove.
