Carlisle top racing tip: Back Well Educated to turn back the clock
Horse racing tipster Jose Breval has identified Well Educated is threatening a return to form and is backing him to win at Carlisle on Thursday afternoon.
15:20 Bet in play on Rhino Bet Handicap Hurdle
Gardener made a promising start to life over hurdles and heads the betting at Carlisle, finishing second in a capable field at Leicester before winning there a month later.
Those runs came the best part of a year ago and he’s not been seen since so despite his promise, this could be a necessary run before we see a return to best form.
Grain d’Oudairies is also lightly raced and open to improvement. He got off the hurdling mark at the second time of asking at Bangor but failed to build on that with an eager performance.
Thereisnodoubt look comfortable when winning at Perth last month so has to be considered a threat, and the lightly-raced types Golden Glance and Holly are worth a mention
.

Voix Du Reve, Moonlight Glory, Russian Virtue and Malangen are all distance winners but they’ve either been out of sorts or are returning from an extended break.
Well Educated won this race 12 months ago and races from a four-pound lower mark today. That was his last win but good showings at Bangor and Cartmel.
He finished third of 10 and 11 respectively in those outings in June which were preceded by a pair of top-four finishes in May.
The fact he’s winless since claiming this race last year shouldn’t be a deterrent, as subsequent races were a step in the right direction before a poor first attempt at chasing proved a temporary setback.
Suggested bet: Well Educated each-way in the 15:20 at Carlisle
