Andy Holding & Tom Love's Horse Racing & Football Double

FONTANA ELLISSI (best price 11-4) has really clicked into gear since the fitting of a hood and following another solid effort in the headgear at Taunton last week, Sam Drinkwater’s gelding makes quite a bit of appeal at this slightly lower level. 

After shaping well at Newbury threea starts ago, the son of Sinndar was well-backed to take advantage of a slipping mark at Ffos Las a month later and although there were times when he looked to be struggling at the Welsh venue, he eventually came through quite powerfully, in the end, to score with a bit to spare. Once again nicely backed beforehand down in the West Country 13 days ago, this time his tendency to hit a bit of a flat spot caught him out around a much sharper track and even though he did his level best to try and rectify the situation late on, unfortunately, Ajero was not for catching. However, that sort of performance against genuine Class 2 opponents suggests he still remains on an upward curve and although there has to be some misgivings regards today’s more testing conditions, the fact that he’s managed to cope with Ffos Las soft ground does hold out plenty of hope he’ll be fine on that score.

One player who could well feature in terms of goalmouth action is Harry Kane. Kane is looking a much more threatening player under Conte than he was under Nuno and that could spell trouble for a weak Everton backline.

With seven goals in his last eleven games and the fact he is the penalty taker for the hosts the odds-against about Kane to bag here looks too tempting to turn down.
