Was 14/1 now 4/1! Check out the morning’s biggest market mover on Wednesday

Horse racing is in Liam's blood and his biggest passion is jumps racing. He can often be found at his favourite tracks; Chepstow and Cheltenham in the Autumn when the National Hunt action kicks off. In his own words: "I'm often referred to as a walking form book, a trait which comes in handy from time to time. My proudest tipping success to date was landing a whopping 682-1 accumulator at Epsom."

It’s always a good idea to keep an eye on the betting as you can learn plenty about the level of market confidence surrounding each horse. Our daily market movers often provide winners but there are never any guarantees in this game. Every so often the money comes for a horse at a level which requires special attention and that’s the case on Wednesday morning.

One Newcastle runner that was available at odds of 14/1 on Tuesday evening and the best price at time of writing is a mere 4/1. We’ll take a look at the chances of this runner below and check out the main dangers. Check out our free tips page for daily content across British and Irish racing.

2.33 Newcastle

Rhythm N Hooves is a Royal Ascot winner who achieved a career-high rating of 96 as a three-year-old. The son of Pearl Secret won the Palace Of Holyrood House handicap back in 2023 and got his head in front once again off a mark of 87 in May 2024.

Mondammej heads the market currently and perhaps rightfully so, on the evidence of his two course and distance wins at the back end of last year. Al Farabi, Dark Kestrel and Sugar Hill Babe have live chances and it looks like a competitive race.

Consistency has been an issue for him but he has managed to put in some decent performances off higher marks without winning. Robert Cowell’s five-year-old looks very well treated on his old form and winning this off 82 shouldn’t be beyond him.

We’ve gone for Al Farabi in this race, as Stuart Williams’ runner is arguably less exposed than most. He wasn’t beaten far when fourth in a better race at Southwell last time out and the handicapper has dropped him 1lb since. This is the gelding’s third start for the yard and he should be capable of getting his head in front sooner rather than later.
