After a perfect 3/3 day yesterday, Steve Ryder returns with two betting tips for today's action.
2:48 Pontefract
TIP 1: Alma Latina - 1pt
Best odds of 5/4 at bet365 while publishing.
Although Fozzie has an official rating of 73, this looks to be a match between According To Mark and ALMA LATINA (best priced at 5/4). The latter outran odds of 33/1 to finish 3rd behind subsequent Musidora Stakes runner-up Felicitas on her debut at Sandown before finishing 2nd to Pierian at Salisbury on her next start. The winner had been an eyecatching 2nd on her debut at Wetherby and has since followed up in match race at Yarmouth under a penalty to somewhat boost the form.
Alma Latina receives a handy sex allowance from both According To Mark and Fozzie and she looks the one to beat.

TIP 2 Finlaggan - 1pt
Best odds of 3/1 at PricedUp while publishing.
FINLAGGAN (best priced at 3/1) was campaigned with handicaps in mind on his first two starts for David O’Meara and he could get off the mark at the sixth attempt in first-time cheekpieces. The four-year-old finished a neck 2nd on his handicap debut over this course and distance in April before not handling Ripon next time when a disappointing beaten favourite.
The handicapper has dropped Finlaggan 1lb for that poor effort which seems generous as it was clearly too bad to be true and if he were bounce back to a repeat of penultimate run then he should prove hard to beat with Danny Tudhope back on board.
