Racehorse betting suggestions for Wednesday, August 13 at Salisbury and Kempton racecourses
Several horses are set to make a splash in tonight's Kempton all-weather races, with proven course-and-distance winners and improving performers set to take centre stage.
In the 6.15 race, John and Thady Gosden's filly Maneuver is tipped to strike first time by David Milnes. Maneuver has been showing up well in recent work on the Al Bahathri and could be a force to be reckoned with.
Meanwhile, in the 6.45 race, Miss Herschel is a horse that has impressed on the all-weather surface, having placed twice in her first two starts. Despite a disappointing effort on turf after two wins on all-weather, Miss Herschel may improve on her return to the all-weather.
The 7.15 race sees Billy Mill, a horse that won over the course and distance in May, taking on the competition. Billy Mill is well handicapped on that form and could challenge for the top spot.
In the main event of the evening, the 7.45 race, the focus is on "Maybe Not". Although the horse was well held on its last two starts on turf, it has the rail draw and showed winning form recently at Kempton over 1 mile in similar conditions. The horse is proven on the all-weather surface, which is an important factor for Kempton handicaps.
Elsewhere, Azaniya, an improving filly for in-form Owen Burrows, makes a rare trip to Salisbury in the 4.30 race. Azaniya may have won despite the ground at Windsor last time, as her previous defeat of subsequent winner Abloom on good to firm at Newmarket reads well now.
With proven form on synthetic tracks like Kempton being a strong indicator for success in these events, pace and draw also matter; horses favoured by moderate to steady gallops and good tactical positioning can improve their chances.
