Tingle Creek Betting Preview
Thursday, December 4th, 2008The best two mile chasers in the business will do battle on Saturday at Sandown in the Tingle Creek.
Favourite to take the spoils is current champion chaser and highest rated horse in training, Master Minded. The Clive Smith owned and Paul Nicholls trained 5yo hacked up in the Queen Mother Champion Chase at the festival last March beating reigning champ Voy Por Ustedes 19 lengths.
Only stable-mate Twist magic ran in that race and was the winner of the Tingle Creek in 2007. After a disappointing return to the track in the William Haldon Cup at Exeter last month he couldn’t be backed with any confidence here and is a 12/1 shot with totesport in the non runner no bet market.
Tidal Bay looks the pick amongst the opposition to Master Minded at 11/4 NRNB. The Howard Johnson trained 2008 Arkle winner followed up with an impressive win at Aintree in April and a very strong display at Carlisle on its only outing this season, beating the field by 9 lengths at the beginning of November.
Master Minded will take the beating though and this sets up a fascinating race and what will be a competitive betting heat with the favourite an 8/13 shot with totesport NRNB.
Don’t forget, the scoop6 bonus fund has still to be won. That means, if you can pick the winners of all six races in the totescoop6 races this Saturday, you could be playing for the bonus fun the following week for a massive £1.5m million!
