ITV7 Guide: Secret seven | Our guide to the free-to-play game with a £50k jackpot


There's £50,000 on offer in this weekend's free-to-play ITV7 and Dave Smith has the guide you need for the crucial races.

14:05 Newcastle - Betfair Fighting Fifth Hurdle (Grade 1) - 2m 46y

Star mare EPATANTE should take all the beating here and bids to give her trainer a fifth win in the last eleven renewals. She'll be short, but as she showed at the festival, her raw speed, even in soft ground will be too much for most of her rivals in this division and the 7lb mare allowance should remove any doubt. Sceau Royal rates as the strongest chance of giving her a race, but the selection is clear on ratings and what she's achieved.

14:18 Doncaster - Free Tips Daily On attheraces.com Novices' Limited Handicap Chase (GBB Race) - 2m 3f 31y

CORRANY will be looking to go one-better than a trio of second places and finally get his head in front for Nicky Henderson. He'll look to get out in front and make the running so this return to a longer trip may just eke out that final piece of improvement needed. Enrichissant is another who will look to make a bold bid so if the two mentioned cut each other's throats out in front then Myplaceatmidnight may pick up the pieces.

14:25 Newbury - Ladbrokes Committed To Safer Gambling Intermediate Hurdle (Listed Handicap) (Registered As The Gerry Feilden) - 2m 69y

MARIE'S ROCK was aimed at a Listed event when last seen and comfortably rewarded stable confidence by landing that contest by some 8 lengths. She will be ridden up with the pace and look to use her burst of pace to land the spoils ahead of Botox Has for the Moore team.

14:53 Doncaster - Visit attheraces.com Handicap Hurdle - 2m 3f 88y

A chance is taken on BRYON FLYER, who despite a poor showing when last seen over obstacles at Ascot still boasts a very respectable record. He's perhaps not in the greatest of form of late, but this may not take a lot of winning and the selection can get the better of Beach Break and Tayzar.

15:00 Newbury - Ladbrokes Trophy Chase (Grade 3 Handicap) (GBB Race) - 3m 1f 214y

A fascinating renewal and a case could be made for nearly all runners. SECRET INVESTOR gets the vote after the ground has come right for him with the Nicholls team in such great form. The handicapper hasn't been overly harsh after a comfortable win when a 7 length victor at Chepstow. The Conditional was a game winner at Cheltenham in March and Vindication is one of the most solid jumpers in the field.

15:15 Newcastle - Betfair Exchange Rehearsal Handicap Chase (Listed) (GBB Race) - 2m 7f 91y

The admirably consistent Whatmore may just find one too good again in the shape of PYM. The selection took well to chasing last season before his campaign trailed off with a poor pair of runs. He looked to have regained the thread last time out at Sandown when landing a Listed contest.

15:35 Newbury - Watch Racing Free Online At Ladbrokes Handicap Chase - 2m 92y

Supporters of IBLEO probably couldn't believe their luck when the selection was nutted on the line at Ascot last time out (this column included). The form of the race has worked out well with Amoola Gold only beaten a neck by a very promising type of Alan King's. The selection can go one better at the expense of Hatcher.
