Ayr Gold Cup Betting Tips

Binhareer is a good starting point for the Ayr Gold Cup. Back in May, the horse ran well in the Churchill Tyres Handicap when finishing second by a neck. The runner then performed well in the Wokingham Handicap at Royal Ascot when landing sixth spot out of twenty-seven horses. It was slightly disappointing that the horse could only secure fourth out of seven in the Hackwood Stakes at Newbury last time out.

Evening Saigon has run plenty of times for Hamal Al Jehani this term, with the horse landing an impressive victory at Goodwood at the beginning of August. The 16/1 shot was able to win the Stewards’ Cup when performing well in this six-furlong encounter. A repeat could be on the cards here, with the latest effort being fifth in the Constantine Handicap at York.

Completely Random is a five-year-old with potential to go well for trainer Harry Charlton, with the horse having finished fourth in the Stewards’ Cup. The runner kept on well in that showdown after a disappointing effort at Ascot. However, a second-placed finish in the Wokingham Stakes suggests that this is definitely one for the shortlist.

Coul Angel might benefit from carrying less weight than some of the market leaders, with the horse running well at York when finishing third in a field of twenty. That was in the Constantine Handicap after a really impressive showing at York. On that occasion, the charge was sent off at 33/1 in the Sky Bet Dash before really outrunning his price.
