Henderson has won four of the last 11 runnings, although he hasn't been successful since 2004 with Geos. Solix has to carry top weight, along with Alan King's Salden Licht, and those looking to oppose them both on the spreads will be pleased that six of the last eight winners have carried 10st9lb or less and 16 of the last 24 winners have shouldered less than 11st. However, this year's race does have a slightly different feel, as the handicap is quite compressed, especially at the top of the weights.
Alan King is yet to win this race, but he could rely on four with genuine chances. The aforementioned Salden Licht won impressively at Exeter last time under top weight and that form has been franked in the past few weeks. Spread betting punters looking to get with him on the Sporting Index win index will be pleased he has shown he can carry big weights and he has won at Newbury in the past.
Get Me Out Of Here was an impressive winner of this race 12 months ago and he is trying to become only the second horse to win it back-to-back. He was 6/1 last year and sellers of SP's on the spreads won't be thrilled that only two of the last eight jollies have won. There have been some big-priced winners in recent years as well, with four of the last six returning 14/1 or bigger.
There's a fantastic supporting card at Newbury and although Paul Nicholls doesn't have any entries in the Totesport Trophy, and has never won this race, he normally does very well on this card. The Aon Chase is a race the Ditcheat stable always target and horse racing spread betting punters will be interested to see What A Friend in the line-up this year. This race was first run in 2000 and there have been eight runnings at Newbury since then, with Nicholls winning six of those. His three Gold Cup winners have won this race, so it's always a big target for him and there will be plenty of spread betting interest in the Nicholls trainer index for the meeting.
The Game Spirit will be another intriguing race for spread betting punters to get involved with even though Master Minded, who has won the last two renewals, won't be here this time. This race has been another Nicholls benefit with him winning five of the last six and he has another live chance this time around with Woolcombe Folly. The champion trainer, and winning distance buyers on the spreads, will be hoping for a repeat of Master Minded's last two victories which have been by a combined 18 lengths.
