2023 Heritage Handicap Tips
It looks hard to pick a winner when it comes to the bet365 Heritage Handicap, with the bookmakers happy to go 8/1 for the field. Lion Of War has been afforded plenty of respect after some encouraging performances, although there are a spate of horses trading at similar odds and that includes Tagabawa who has a win on the board this season.
Lion Of War was last seen finishing second in the Golden Gates Stakes at Royal Ascot when the 9/2 co-favourite beat every other horse aside from Burdett Road. There was previously a win in the Edinburgh Handicap at Musselburgh where the 15/2 shot was able to secure a victory by over a length, although Tagabawa is also an interesting pick.
The horse ran in the King George V Stakes at Royal Ascot and finished a credible sixth place, with this coming after a victory on the all-weather at Kempton. Amleto also has to be respected based on a win at Chester in his last outing, with the 7/2 shot claiming a victory over one mile, two and a half furlongs in a maiden race.
Local Dynasty was third in the same race as Lion Of War at Royal Ascot and has three lengths to find on his adversary in this encounter, with the horse previously landing the same position in the Boodles Dee Stakes. The fact that the runner has recorded wins at Sandown and Pontefract means that chances have to be respected.
