Newbury tips: Tutti Quanti fancied for William Hill Hurdle glory on Super Saturday

Declan Rix and Sam Boswell join Host Kate Tracey to preview a stellar 'Super Saturday' card from Newbury - all live on Your Site Racing.

The team focused specifically on the feature William Hill Hurdle Handicap, for which Let It Rain currently heads the market for the Dan Skelton team.

As many as 16 runners are set to go over the extended two-mile trip, with the ground set to be heavy at the Berkshire track.

"It looks a disappointing renewal on ratings and horses that are much higher in the handicap have won this such as Zarkandar and My Tent Or Yours. However, I'm hoping class is to the fore here and I'm siding with Tutti Quanti - who is trained by Paul Nicholls.

"He's a fine big horse who won't have any issue carrying top weight and has form on soft going. We haven't seen him since winning over course and distance last time out, in which he got an easy lead and was allowed to dominate. The form looks good with the second winning [since]. Handling the ground is key here, and he certainly will."

"Copy and paste everything that Declan has said as I am in total agreement with him. Running Tracey's Trends, hardly any of these [runners] ticked any of the trends you really want - but Tutti Quanti ticked the most. He is the class angle with top weight and was one of the few horses who got anywhere near the bandwidth you've needed to win this race in previous years. With the size and scope of him as well - he should be absolutely fine on this ground.

"He was well supported last time out when he won, and he has seen some significant market support already. He likes to go from the front which isn't ideal in this race given seven of the last 12 winners have been held up, as they go quick early on. Hopefully he can't go the early gallop and sits behind the leaders."

"I took the trends and threw them out of the window. Last year the renewal was so quick and it's the complete opposite here. I'm going for the Jamie Snowden-trained runner Mildam - who has seen some support in the market during the week.

"He is going to relish the conditions, and he ran well at Windsor in a competitive handicap on quicker ground. He has a good 5lbs claimer aboard in Isabelle Ryder, who is a really good rider and done well for the stable. He will handle the conditions and will be one of the runners that will get around guaranteed. With a few places on offer, he has a great chance at the prices."
