2023 Easter Classic Middle Distance Championships Tips
Forest Of Dean could only finish sixth out of eight runners in his previous race, although the horse racing betting sites make him favourite to win the BetUK All-Weather Easter Classic Middle Distance Championships Conditions Stakes and it must be admitted that this previous encounter was a competitive tussle which was won by talented favourite Lord North.
Forest Of Dean was previously the winner when obliging in a fast-track qualifier to be lining up in this race, with Collen Storey riding the charge to victory out of six different runners and that included a win against Harrovian who is also lining up as one of the favourites in this Newcastle all-weather race, with the bookies finding it hard to split the two horses.
The latter has followed a similar journey to arrive in this race, with John Gosden also having this runner which gives the legendary trainer a very strong chance of success. However, jockey James Doyle has opted to ride the race favourite, with Robert Havlin on board Harrovian and hoping to get his tactics right when it comes to the off.
Freescape has plenty to prove on the evidence of the most recent outings, with these all coming in competitive races at Meydan. However, there were a succession of performances at the all-weather track at Dundalk racecourse, with the eight-year-old capable of a sound race for trainer David Marnane, with Base Note having finished fifth on the past two outings.
