Haydock tips: Lady Of Camelot can collect in Lancashire Oaks

Snoano each-way value in Old Newton Cup

Snoano scored in good style last time out and looks decent each-way value in a typically wide-open renewal of the valuable Old Newton Cup (14:50).

The gelding was a dual winner as a juvenile when trained by Gosden, rated 100 at his peak, and after posting some eye-catching efforts in five starts this season since joining Tim Easterby took advantage of a drop in the weights to land an amateur riders’ contest at York.

After being held-up in mid-division travelling strongly, the four-year-old made smooth headway to take up the running at the furlong marker and only had to be nudged out to score by 1/2 a length.

Value for more than the winning margin

Snoano scored with more in hand than the winning margin suggests, and a 5lb rise in the weights for that success looks more than fair.

Connections have also offset the rise by booking top apprentice Rachel Richardson to do the steering, so in effect Snoano is a winner without a penalty.

The son of Nayef also remains well-treated off a revised rating of 94 on his back-form and will will relish the cut in the ground at the Merseyside venue.
