Saturday Stats Request A Bet Blog

The first of three Graded races at Ascot and the Stats RAB is the OLBG.com Mares' Hurdle - registered As The Warfield Hurdle, and Magic Of Light makes a surprise return to timber for the first time since September 2017.

She has been on an absolute roll chasing, most recently bolting up at Newbury in a Mares Chase just before Christmas, with her 3/1 price that day providing a present for many.

Still looks a leading contender now switching back to the lower obstacles, and Harrington may have spotted a gap in the division, with perhaps Laurina and Apples Jade heading other way.

Harrington both on the flat and over the jumps loves bringing her horses here as she has a 25 percent win record for the past 12 months. With this, Robbie Power who is in the saddle tomorrow has a 17 percent strike rate for the last 14 days.

The second selection comes in the Sky Bet Supreme Trial - registered as the Rossington, leaving a field of six and we think Nicky Henderson can still pick up the scraps with Mister Fisher, in what remains an competitive affair.

Mister Fisher looks a true contender for the Champion Trainer in the Supreme at the Cheltenham Festival, having beat off three big names in the division back in the 32Red Casino Novices Hurdle in Kempton's opener on Boxing Day.

Takes all the beating this time around and trainer Nicky Henderson is in fine form running at a strike rate of 27 percent for the last 14 days. With this, When he teams up with jockey James Bowen he has a strike rate of 26 percent with his horses.

The next in the Stats RAB is the Tom George trained Seddon will be hoping he can get back to his best, in the Grade Three Matchbook Holloway's Handicap Hurdle, after what he felt were two sub-standard efforts at Cheltenham and here latest.

Down the field in last year's Champion Bumper at the Cheltenham Festival, he won on his hurdles bow at Stratford on the first day of November.

Despite going off an even-money favourite at Cheltenham, you could argue jumping up to Grade Two company and going on to place in two contests is creditable, so a drop to a Grade Three could go to show his level.

His defeat here last time was to the current Supreme favourite Angels Breath, so actually the form line looks pretty strong, providing Nicky Henderson's 4yo can follow up in another trial at Haydock on Saturday.

Tom George loves teaming up with the owners of this horse, the McNeill family and has a 25 percent win record with their horses. With this with his six runners at Ascot this season four of them have gone on to place.

This action continues with the Grade Two New One Unibet Hurdle - registered as a trial for the Champion Hurdle, and with Brain Power out, Silver Streak can prove his worth for Evan Williams.

Both of his second-placed finishes in a Cheltenham Grade Two and Three not too long ago makes him the one to beat, where he was unlucky not to win in either.

Has conditions in his favour - providing they do not turn on the softer side.Looking to boost credentials for the big one in March and his trainer Evan Williams has a 16 percent strike rate at this track..

In a fiercely competitive-looking bet365 Handicap Chase, Happy Diva just gets the edge from us and is the final selection in our Stats RAB with Sky Bet.

Her hopes for the BetVictor Gold Cup at Cheltenham were ended when brought down four fences from the finish, when appearing to be travelling very well for Richard Patrick.

The 8yo returned to Prestbury Park on New Years Day, finishing two lengths down on Aso in a Grade Three, and she looks in solid shape this campaign.True contender.

Kerry Lee has a great record when bringing her horses to this track having a 50 percent record with out of the four horses she has bought here two have gone on to win and another has placed.
