Racing royalty heads to Canterbury on Wednesday where racing expert Professor Robert Furlongsworth is backing the King Of Naples to seize the throne.
For his value bet, the racing guru is all over a spirited 4YO mare to salute in the 5th.

Best Bet

Speedy type who resumes after a dominant win at Gosford at the end of his summer campaign.
Should get conditions to suit and with J-Mac to ride will take plenty of beating.

Value Bet
Race 5, 1100m

On debut for Matthew Smith having done all of her racing south of the border to date.
She boasts a strong first-up record and looks decent value in an open race.
