Sky Bet Ebor Handicap Antepost Tip: “The 12-1 is likely to be snapped up”

We are all set for what should be a fantastic week on the Knavesmire as the Ebor Festival at York is set to get under way on Wednesday. We will have plenty of top class racing to look forward to, but the highlight of the week may turn out to be the Ebor Handicap on Saturday. Adrian Wall has picked out an ante post bet for the race and he thinks the price won’t last for long. Make sure you check out our free horse racing tips on the website for today’s action.

Ebor Antepost Tip

The Saeed Bin Suroor yard have had a fruitful season in Britain and that could be set to continue as Live Your Dream bids to go and win one of the most prestigious handicaps in the land on Saturday. This horse has been a revelation since returning from a lengthy layoff in 2021 after an abysmal run in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket.

Live Your Dream came back from a 609 day break to finish second in a good Haydock handicap in June, beaten just half a length. That was an encouraging run after such a long absence, and he showed he was improving by then finishing third in the Duke Of Edinburgh at Royal Ascot 13 days later.

Heavily punted into favourite for the bet365 Trophy when last seen, he duly obliged in the hands of Kevin Stott from a mark of 104. Although this will be a taller order from a 5lb mark, he deserves a lot of respect and he is starting to fulfil his true potential now. He has to go close for us.
