While Amsterdam might not have the most glamorous record, his recent form suggests he’s a horse on the up. The Ed Walker-trained three-year-old has shown a liking for fast ground, and his second-placed finishes at York and Ascot in his last two starts are particularly noteworthy. A fifth at Haydock in July was a minor setback, but considering the competitive field and the quick turnaround, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Amsterdam bounce back. With Oisin Murphy, a jockey in top form, in the saddle, Amsterdam has a real chance to shine in the 17:05 PM race at Newmarket. At odds of 7/2, he represents a solid each-way bet.
