Will Numide get the better of a good field today?

Numide has been well handled by Rod Millman and can gain another victory in the competitive 2m4f handicap hurdle at Bangor (15:50).

This quirky eight-year-old finished an excellent second to Ciceron in a hot race at Taunton from 7lb out of the handicap. Happily for punters the son of Highest Honour runs off his original mark of 125 here before he is due to go up to 130 on Saturday.

Numide is proven over the 20 furlong trip, ground is not an issue and this represents an ease in class. There are, however, plenty with chances; most notably Devotion To Duty.
Lucinda Russell's horses are in better shape now and five-year-old was a runaway winner at Mussleburgh.

He is, however, now off a career-high 122 as is Nortonthorpe Lad, runaway winner at Newton Abbot.

The prize money doesn't do justice to the quality of the event and Numide will appreciate the likely decent pace set by down-in-grade Drill Sergeant, who comes with serious stamina doubts.

Finding a second selection was not easy and a tentative vote is given to Khanivorous in the 17:30 at Wolverhampton, a handicap over 7f.

The angle here is that Jim Boyle's runner is back over 7f furlongs on Polytrack.
A third on the Fibresand at Southwell followed a third over a mile at Kempton. But the best performance from Khanivorous was his another third, this time to Highland Quaich over this trip at the Sudbury circuit.

The inconsistent Striker Torres is likely to set a hot pace and it could fall into place for the selection off a mark that he has been competitive off.

Recommended Bets:
Back Numide @ [3.9] in the 15:50 Bangor
Back Khanivorous @ [9.8] in the 17:30 Wolves
