2021 Newmarket Handicap Best Bets
I would be avoiding Bivouac at the moment – he is set to run in the 2021 Black Caviar Lightning Stakes and then possibly head to Dubai on his way to Royal Ascot, so he may not line up here in the 2021 Newmarket Handicap.
September Run and Swats That are talented fillies, but it remains to be seen how they will perform against open age sprint superstars, take a look at how they run in the 2021 Black Caviar Lightning Stakes.
Elite Street looks appealing at the price, he is an extremely progressive type who took out the Group 1 2020 Winterbottom Stakes, and looks like he will relish the Flemington straight.
Haut Brion Her trialled well and looks to have improved since her run in The Everest, and will be right in the finish if she lobs here.
