‘He has an 8lb pull in the weights’ – ITV 25-1, 16-1 & 9-1 Outsiders for Saturday 🎯

Adrian Wall is back with his weekly feast of ITV Racing Outsider bets and he thinks these three runners are all overpriced. Best of luck if you follow and remember, always gamble responsibly.


2.00 York

Throne Hall (9/1) is a Kingman gelding who has failed to land a blow in three starts this year, but the combination of an ease in the weights and a drop in class may spark a revival. He won in the spring last year at Doncaster and was placed off a mark of 98 twice last year. Now 6lb lower and a lover of a sound surface, a big run could be on the cards.


2.15 Sandown

Blue For You (25/1) beat Wembley in a Galway maiden over 7f on soft ground in 2020 and won a Leopardstown handicap over a mile off 91 in July of last year. Overall record is very hit or miss but he is having just his second start for the O’Meara team and it is interesting that Tom Marquand is booked for the ride.


3.20 Chester

Bullet Force (16/1) doesn’t have the worst of draws coming out of gate eight, and the Amom Racing Limited owned runner is not to be underestimated here. The Musselburgh maiden winner was sent off favourite for a Class 2 handicap at Newmarket last year where he finished one place behind the reopposing Outgate on the day in third. He has an 8lb pull in the weights on that bare form for half a length beating so it is a surprise to see him at such large odds here. Rossa Ryan is in the saddle and he should be able to hit the frame.
