It’s a Final Furlong Saturday Betting Special as Emmet Kennedy, Andy Newton, George Gorman and Peter Michael return with your complete Ascot & Haydock Racing Guide. Big handicaps, a Grade 1 centrepiece, strong opinions, and NAPs at proper prices — this is essential listening if you’re betting this weekend.

🟩 THE HEADLINE SELECTIONS


  
George Gorman: 15/2 NAP • 4/1 Next Best

  
Andy Newton: 5/1 NAP • 3/1 & 8/1 Next Bests

  
Emmet Kennedy: 8/1 NAP

  
Peter Michael: 5/2 NAP + a list of horses worth keeping firmly onside


🟥 ASCOT — GRADE 1 & PREMIER HANDICAPS

2:25 — Howden Long Walk Hurdle (Grade 1)

A deep dive into the season’s key staying hurdle. Who’s solid, who’s vulnerable, and where the value really lies.

1:50 — Howden Handicap Chase

A competitive puzzle — the team identify one profile that keeps cropping up.

3:00 — Howden Silver Cup Handicap Chase (Premier Handicap)

Big field, big prices, and strong disagreements across the panel.

3:35 — Festive Handicap Hurdle (Premier Handicap)

One panellist is notably bullish at a double-figure price.

🟦 HAYDOCK — HARD GRAFT, HARD TRUTH

2:05 — Tommy Whittle Handicap Chase

Stamina, jumping, and winter ground — the panel zero in on the right type.

2:40 — Abram Hurdle (Listed Mares’ Novice)

A mare the market keeps overlooking draws serious support.

🟧 FINAL WORD

This is a proper Saturday punters’ roadmap — price-led, form-driven, and built to help you make better decisions, not louder ones.
