Saturday Racing TV Tips and Trends: 22nd February 2025

Thursday, February 20, 2025

We've another busy afternoon in store with seven LIVE ITV races spread across three tracks - Kempton, Southwell and Newcastle.

The Ladbrokes Trophy Chase tops the bill at Kempton, with four LIVE races at the Sunbury-On-Thames track, while the stayers are out again up at Newcastle for the gruelling Eider Chase that's run over 4m1f.

Then at Southwell the All Weather racing fans get their fix with a top-notch card that includes the Group 3 Winter Derby - being run at the track for the second time.

So, as always, we’ve got it all covered here at SUREWIN with all the key trends, plus our verdict, on each of the LIVE ITV races - we’re confident these trends will point you in the direction of a few winners, or at least help narrow down some of the field to highlight the horses that fit the best profile of past winners – So, let’s get going!
