Saturday's Best Bets: Bet prepared for the Best Of Days

After a 8-1 winning tip in Prestbury Park, there isn't too much taking Tippin' Jimmy's fancy this afternoon.

2:25 Newbury - Best Of Days (7/2)
Hugo Palmer is represented by Best Of Days who should return to his best after an outing at Royal Ascot last month. He missed out on the classics, but sets the standard on his encouraging Royal Lodge victory. He should improve, and if he progresses should have a good chance.

3:35 Newbury - Zalshah ew (22/1)
My best bet is probably the favourite, Maggies Angel. But there is one for the each-way backers. Richard Hannon and Ryan Moore is a formidable duo, and they team up with Zalshah who I feel has a bit more ability than we've seen. He's yet to win in four efforts, and should be able to pick up some each-way money.

3:50 Newmarket - Manchego (16/1)
I realise he is out of the handicap, and Josephine is going 2lb overweight but I was really really taken by this horse. He won very well at Wolverhampton in maiden company, but struggled over a long distance when last seen at Newbury. Over a mile at Newmarket looks ideal for him, and I am expecting him to have a huge each-way chance.

4:10 Newbury - Oliver Reed (5/1) NAP
Another for Richard Hannon and Ryan Moore, this two-year-old ran an encouraging debut when fifth at this track. That run wasn't too bad and he should improve a lot from it, I know he's thought quite highly of. If he can live up to expectations he should run very well.

4:45 Newbury - Pavillion (3/1)
Clive Cox's filly certainly has ability, and I expect her to give a good account of herself. She was disappointing on her turf debut, and I would expect to see a much better performance from her today. It's not the best handicap and she's given a nice weight too.

EW L15 - Best Of Days/ Manchego/ Oliver Reed/ Pavillion
