4.45pm Newmarket Tips & Betting Preview 13/07/2018

Elgin has won his last two starts and looks a player here on handicap debut, he is coming up against a potentially well-treated rival today, however, in NATURAL SCENERY. This five-year-old mare had some smart handicap form to her name last year, finishing in the money in both the Northumberland Plate and the Ebor. She disappointed on her return from a break last month but is entitled to strip fitter for that comeback run, and if back to her best she looks on an attractive handicap mark. Hamada has won both of his starts since returning from a lengthy absence, the step up in trip could bring some improvement from him today, and he looks likeliest to chase the selection home.
