Nottingham Race 3 - Bet 10 Get 30 At Betano Handicap
VALKYRIE STORM (1) looks the one to beat after winning here over 1677m 13 days ago, scoring by 1L under 61.5kg and already proven at track and trip. INFERNO (2) has placed at Newcastle over 1613m and was 3rd at Thirsk over 1607m last start, so profiles as a key chance up in a handicap. EMPIRICAL (4) can improve with cheekpieces after a Wolverhampton 1739m placing two back. LILLIE MARGOT (3) has a Haydock 1602m 3rd on debut and draws the inside. Leading chances: Valkyrie Storm, Inferno, Empirical.
