3.00pm Huntingdon Tips & Betting Preview 12/01/2018

IN SUMMARY: Style De Garde won nicely on British debut at Newbury and will be defending his record and reputation here. He is not taken lightly as he’s completely unexposed and could be smart, but the experience of GUMBALL may just tell on this occasion. He won his first two starts in impressive fashion and was bogged down in poor conditions at Cheltenham last time behind Apple’s Shakira, when the Hobbs’ yard was struggling as a whole. He should get a soft lead and can lead them a merry dance from the front under the Champion Jockey to show his true form.
