14:35 Bath Tips — Sunday 5th April 2026

Heading to Bath for the 14:35, where my focus is firmly on Hugo Palmer's debutant, Wait Geordie (EVS). This unexposed runner arrives with a top-class trainer and the experienced hands of David Probert in the saddle, a pairing that often signifies serious intent, particularly with newcomers.

The significance of the draw at Bath cannot be overstated, and Wait Geordie couldn't have landed a better position in stall 2 amongst the 10-runner field. This low draw is a massive advantage, allowing Probert to secure a forward position early without expending too much energy. Such a tactical edge is often the difference between winning and losing on this undulating track.

Despite the unknown form, the market has certainly spoken, with Wait Geordie installed as the Even Money favourite. Given the calibre of connections and that crucial draw bias firmly on his side, I believe he’s very much one to be with. Expect him to be sharp and ready to strike.

For those seeking an each-way alternative, Magical Life catches the eye. It looks capable of running into the places and offers a solid backup.
