Newsboy’s horse racing selections for Tuesday’s three meetings, including Southwell nap

Newsboy fancies his nap, Peckforton Hills, to score a first hurdle win at Southwell (3.30) and he also rates Dr Ali at Wolverhampton in the 7.00

PECKFORTON HILLS can step up to the task to score his first win over hurdles in the Free Bets On attheraces.com Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle (3.30) at Southwell.

A Carlisle bumper winner last February the six-year-old ran well on his second run over the smaller obstacles, when he finished third on his handicap debut at Sedgefield last month.

He improved further on his most recent run 27 days go at Doncaster over an extended 2m3f, when he ran on to finished second having been hampered two out.

Co-trainers Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero now move my selection up to three miles for the first time, which would appear the correct course to take.

In the Midnite, Building The Future Of Betting Classified Stakes (Div II) over six furlongs at Wolverhampton, DR ALI (7.00) who took 18 attempts to score a first win gets the vote.

The son of Invisible Army got up in the final strides to beat Magna a neck at Kempton in January and following a lack-lustre effort at Southwell last month, the four-year-old bounced back to form with a battling silver medal over course and distance two weeks ago.

A similar performance from a favourable draw would give John Jenkins’ charge every chance.
