16:05 Newmarket — Race Preview & Tips
We're tipping Shah in the 16:05 at Newmarket — a Flat race with 8 runners on Good going.
A look at the form — 2221/ — reveals winning form that is hard to ignore.
George Boughey has been in fine form and teams up with Billy Loughnane, a combination that demands respect.
These conditions — Good ground over — look tailor-made for the selection.
Key angle: Won last time out.
An official mark of 89 looks workable in this grade.
For each-way purposes, Elarak merits consideration as a place alternative.
