Harry Wilson strikes with 3-1, 4-1 and 11-2 winners and has a tip for each of the remaining races on ITV on Saturday

Harry Wilson found a 15-2 winner in his last column and he is back with his advice for all ten races live on ITV at Haydock, Ascot and Kempton on Saturday . . .


1.15 Haydock
Best Odds On The Betfair Exchange Superior Mile Stakes (Group 3), 1m

Harry's tip: Prague

Prague didn't see the track at two or three but looked a smart prospect when conceding at least 13lb to each rival and scoring by four lengths on his debut at Sandown in June. He hasn't quite seen out the trip from the front on his last two starts and he'll need to improve on those here, but he's worth a go over this shorter trip against rivals who have plenty of question marks about them.

1.35 Ascot
bet365 Handicap, 7f

Harry's tip: Mission To Moon

Mission To Moon recorded his sole success as a juvenile when running away with a nursery at last year's Glorious Goodwood in soft ground and confirmed his liking for those conditions when winning at that track again in May. That form has been well advertised since, with the second following up on her next start and winning a Listed race since, and after a string of good efforts on quicker ground, he can go well back on his favoured conditions.

1.50 Haydock
Betfair Plays Different Handicap, 1m6f

Harry's tip: Master Builder

Master Builder showed good form in turf novices in the spring, notably winning by a head at Salisbury in May from Subsequent, who is now rated 95 having won three of his next four starts, and he displayed plenty of promise when third in the Melrose on his handicap debut last time. That run can be marked up as he had to take a pull when slightly short of room before staying on strongly to the line on ground that was probably a touch quick. He should be a major force off just 3lb higher.

2.10 Ascot
Chapel Down Handicap, 1m4f

Harry's tip: The Reverend

Goodwood Odyssey warrants plenty of respect, but a chance is taken on The Reverend for William Haggas, who took this race with a handicap newcomer in 2015 and 2022. The three-year-old won well on his debut in heavy ground and again ran well in those conditions when second over 1m3f behind a well-bred newcomer for the Gosdens last time, seeing out the trip fine but just failing to give that rival 6lb. He was also second to the now 100-rated Thunder Run at Thirsk in July and could have scope off a mark of 86 now handicapping.

2.25 Haydock
Betfair Exchange Old Borough Cup Handicap, 1m6f

Harry's tip: Epic Poet

Epic Poet hasn't been with David O'Meara long, but he produced a fine effort to finish second to a subsequent Group 3 winner in the Duke of Edinburgh at Royal Ascot in June and has followed that with an eyecatching fifth in the John Smith's Cup and an unlucky fourth in the Ebor when last seen. He wasn't beaten far that day having been forced to challenge from much further back than ideal after being hampered rounding the home turn and can take advantage of an unchanged mark granted more luck.

2.35 Kempton
Unibet September Stakes (Group 3), 1m4f

Harry's tip: Lion's Pride

Lion's Pride is 2-3 at Kempton, with the shorter trip a possible excuses for his Magnolia Stakes third, albeit that is strong form, with winner Dubai Honour since successful in a Group 1. His career-best Racing Post Rating came when running away with the Floodlit Stakes over course and distance in November, form that could hardly have worked out better, with the runner-up Measured Time winning two Group/Grade 1s and the third landing the Copper Horse Handicap, and a repeat of that should be good enough in receipt of 3lb from main rival Hamish.

3.00 Haydock
Betfair Be Friendly Handicap, 5f

Harry's tip: American Affair

American Affair has been hugely progressive this year, recording form figures of 12122 and recording RPRs of 97, 100, 100 on his last three starts, including when going down by just a neck over course and distance last month. Those runs, and his second behind the now 104-rated Desperate Hero, suggest he can rate higher than his mark of 92 and he should be very hard to beat with Amie Waugh, who claims a valuable 5lb, taking over in the saddle.

3.15 Kempton
Unibet London Mile Series Final Handicap, 1m

Harry's tip: Longlai

Longlai has rediscovered his form since switching to Michael Wigham and getting on the all-weather, recording form figures over a mile of 1211. His second behind Two Tempting in March has proved to be strong form, with the winner rated 17lb higher having won four times since, and there's every chance a 3lb rise for his latest Wolverhampton win underestimates him, given the runner-up, who he beat a shade cosily, won a Racing League handicap next time.

3.35 Haydock
Betfair Sprint Cup Stakes (Group 1), 6f

Harry's tip: Bucanero Fuerte

This looks wide open, and one who looks completely the wrong price is the the top-rated Bucanero Fuerte. He was a brilliant juvenile, winning three of his five starts, including a devastating four-length victory in the Phoenix Stakes over Porta Fortuna, who won the Cheveley Park later that year and has since won two more Group 1s. He returned from a long break with a workmanlike victory in a Group 3 in May, but is still completely unexposed and could prove the best of the three-year-olds.
