SUN Racing looks at Friday’s cards confident of landing a big winner – or two.
Read on for our top tips.
Longshot
CYCLOP (2.40 Perth)
Brian Hughes takes over from a 7lb claimer on this ten-year-old who often needs some encouragement from the saddle. He stays all day and is only 3lb higher than his last winning mark so should go well.

Each way thief
NAAMOOS (1.50 Sandown)
Mark Johnston’s youngster battled well to win on handicap debut at Musselburgh last time. He fought off his rivals in the final furlong and can take another step forward today.
RECOVERY RUN (3.35 Sandown)
Andrew Balding and Oisin Murphy team up with this three-year-old who was never out of the first two last season. He finished with a good second in the Zetland Stakes and this trip is ideal.
