DIRECT FROM WILLIAM HILL’S TRADING FLOOR

the British flat season begins at Doncaster today and William hill sponsor the full eightrace card, with the Lincoln (3.35) the traditional seasonal opener, where we’re paying SIX places both online and in retail.

fozzy Stack’s CHAZZESMEE could become the first horse to do the Irish and english Lincoln double, and punters are backing the six-year-old to make history as he’s now 9-2 from 11-2.

at bigger prices, there has been money for the Dominic ffrench Davistrained mr professor, who has come all the way into 20-1 from 40s.

With a big field of unraced two-year-olds lining up, the William hill Brocklesby (1.50) is always a race where market vibes have to be heeded and the early signals point to a good run from ETTORINO (11-1 from 18-1) with the recently-returned Silvestre de Sousa (above) in the saddle.

there are also two Listed races on the card from town moor, and in the first (1.20), we’ve seen a move for DASHING ROGER, who is now 20-1 having opened at 40-1.

the William hill Cammidge trophy (3.00) is competitive and despite just seven runners, we’re paying 3 places. having opened at 7-2, Charlie hills’ ORAZIO is the one for money and is now 11-4.

for those still in jumps mode, in the grade 2 mares’ novice (3.15) from newbury, there’s been a fair amount of support behind William hill ambassador Lucinda russell’s EL ELEFANTE, who’s been backed into favouritism at 4-1 from 11-2.

the Skelton team continue in red-hot form, so it’s no surprise to also see LINDY REILLY popular at 17-2 on her handicap debut.
