William Haggas Eyes A Record-breaking Fifth Lincoln Handicap Win

You might like the horse racing phrase ‘horses for courses’ – but here in the Lincoln Handicap it’s more like ‘Trainers For Races’!

That’s because the poweful William Haggas yard have a cracking record in the Lincoln Handicap, having won the race four times in the past and he needs just one more success to become the all-time leading trainer in this early season handicap.

The first Haggas winner in the Lincoln came with High Low (1992) and he’s since added victories with Very Wise (2007), Penitent (2010) and most recently Addeybb (2018).

He currently shares the spoils with an old handler called Jack Robinson, who, unless you’re aged 100+, you won’t have heard off – his wins in the Lincoln came between 1896 and 1910!

This year, however, Haggas has the chance to take the top Lincoln trainer in his own right and has a strong hand too. He runs three – Irish Admiral, Ametist and Mujtaba.

Lincoln Handicap Tips

The main trends (see below) lean us towards ruling out the horses aged 7 or older and those that are carrying 9st 5lbs or more in weight.

With 14 of the last 18 winners (78%) also coming from stalls 9 or higher, this can also help us put a negative against another 8 runners and two of these are the already mentioned Haggas runners – Mujtaba (drawn 2) and Irish Admiral (drawn 1).

Others near the head of the market – Modern News (drawn 8) and Saleymm (drawn 3) might also be worth taking on regarding the draw stat.

So, the two that catch the eye, and tick most of the main trends, are the remaining William Haggas runner – Ametist – and the Andrew Balding entry – Notre Belle Bete.

Ametist @ 14/1 with BetUK has a nice draw in 13, so will have options to go either way being drawn in the middle. He was a fair third last time out at HQ back in September in the Cambridgeshire, but has also won 50% of his 8 races so knows how to get his head in front. Cieren Fallon rides.

Notre Belle Bete @ 15/2 with BetUK is drawn 21 and will be race fitter than most after a spell on the all weather tracks. Yes, this 4 year-old is yet to win on the grass (7 runs), but he’s been placed second three times. He’s clearly improved over the winter since joining Balding – winning his last two – and looks an interesting contender.
