Horse Racing NAP Of The Day Tip 🥇

4:50 Bangor: SERVICE MINIMUM (NAP)

This looks like being the plan for this Skelton runner, who was dropped 2lbs for his last run and now gets into a 0-105.

Yes, he’s got 12st as a result, but the drop from C4 to C5 will make life easier and she actually wasn’t beaten far the last day at Market Rasen (5 1/2 lengths) in a better race.

The other big plus is the return to good ground, with both career runs coming on a better surface.

Skelton’s form could be a tad better (5-43) but in an average race I’ll take Service to take this with the ‘minimum’ of fuss.

Other Lucky 15 Horse Racing Tips Today🏇

3:15 Bangor: HALFTHEWORLDAWAY

Impressive when winning over CD here last month and is only up 3lbs for that 6-length win.

Better ground here is the slight unknown with all runs on soft so far.

But has been freshened up with a month off and with only three runs over the sticks will have more in the locker.

Roses All The Way looks the danger, but a repeat of that last run will make this Greenall/Guerriero mare tough to beat.

6:30 Wolverhampton: FARASI LANE 

Won with probably a bit more to spare than the 1/2 a length at the line the last day.

Up 4lbs for that but still looks well-treated on old form – having won well in the late 80’s and is still 79.

Rossa Ryan, who was on last time, keeps the ride and this is also a drop in grade from last time – but does have more racing weight as a result (9-13).

Farasi can get in the fast lane here.

7:00 Wolverhampton: DANEHILL STAR (NB)

This Tony Carroll runner took this pot 12 months ago and is back for more with a top chance.

Won by an easy 2 1/2 lengths last year and is only 3lbs higher.

Billy Loughnane gets the ride for the first time too and heads here off the back of a good 2nd the last day at Southwell at the weekend.

You feel this would have been the target for a second year, so Danehill Star can shine again.


Today’s Each-Way Horse Racing Betting Tips🏇

2:30 Newcastle: CHEMOULIN

Not really an e/w price but wanted to get in somewhere today as though he won well the last day at Haydock.

That came in a maiden hurdle but is into a handicap today on what looks a fair mark (109).

Lightly-raced with only three runs too – so, goes without saying, will be more to come.

While further confidence is added with the Charlie Longsdon yard boasting a 43% SR with their hurdlers here at Newcastle.

3:50 Bangor: THE GOOD DOCTOR 

Yet to score over fences (0-7) and needs to bounce back from two very poor runs last time.

But go three runs back and this Ben Pauling runner was a good third at Sandown to Invincible Nao – beaten only 1 1/4 lengths.

Is 5lbs lower based on that run here too and the drop in grade should help.

39 days off may have also helped freshen him up and yard come here with a 6-17 (35%) SR with their hurdlers.

All these factors could be the perfect medicine for The Good Doctor to return to form.

5:35 Newcastle: TRAVIS WHEATLEY 

The Adam Nicol yard look to have several good chances at Newcastle today, so keep an eye on all their runners (see below).

As they also have a solid record in recent days with 4 winners from their last 11 sent to post.

There have been a bit of dosh for this 6yold this morning too and is significantly down in grade (C5 from C2).

Down 4lbs in the ratings from last time too and connections are also trying the first-time cheekpieces.

7:30 Wolverhampton: CONCERT 

Trainer Jack Channon had a blinder at the weekend – taking the Lincoln and Spring Mile.

This filly was formerly with the William Haggas yard and was last seen running at Southwell in October.

Down 3lbs for that run here on stable debut for the Channon team, who also boast a 26% SR at the track with their 3yolds.

Was also only 2 lengths off Kolkata Knight in September last year – but is now 7lbs better off.

Concert looks fair e/w value to hit the right notes.

🏇3:30 Newcastle: SIR CARNEGIE (434 miles), Mickey Bowen
🏇5:00 Newcastle: SLACK ALICE (434 miles), Mickey Bowen


Andy Newton’s LAY OF THE DAY ⛔🏇❌

🏇5:00 Newcastle: JOTO 

Had a string of thirds next to her name in recent runs so not without a squeak.

But is still 0-10 in her races and is back on the same mark as last time (75), when third at Catterick.

Similar conditions here and Alice Stevens takes off 3lbs again, but carries 6lbs more in racing weight this time and I just feel she might need to come down a bit more in the ratings.

Note: Some picks can drift during the day (obviously we have no control of that) – but I’d say if they hit 8.0+ they are prob best left (for obvious reasons).

    17:30 Wolverhampton: Overbudget

    “Our two girls dominate the market on this 3yo fillies’ maiden and it might be close between them. Overbudget has the better draw and showed speed in both her starts when finishing 2nd on good to soft last October. Hollie is very good at the gate and will give her every chance.” Dylan Cunha

    17:30 Wolverhampton: Skip To Victory

    “Skip To Victory is hard fit after three runs already this year over at Southwell and she too is fast. Whether she has the class of her stablemate is the issue. We’ll find out. ” Dylan Cunha


      What Does NAP Mean In Horse Racing? 

      The term NAP bet or NAP of the Day in horse racing is often used by tipsters – but what does it actually stand for?

      In short, it is the BEST bet of the day and the one that is thought to have the best chance of winning by that tipster.

      The term ‘NAP’ is short for the word Napoleon, which comes from a French card game of the same name.

      You’ve probably heard of the phrase ‘having a NAP hand’ and this is where the term comes from. Having a good, or the best hand in this card game.

      What Does NB Mean In Horse Racing?

      It’s similar to a NAP – but in horse racing, NB stands for ‘Next Best’.

      In simple terms, it’s the tipster’s second-strongest selection of the day. Not quite their headline pick, but the one just behind it in confidence.

      How Does A Lucky 15 Horse Racing Bet Work?

      A Lucky 15 is one of the most popular bets in horse racing – and for good reason.

      It involves FOUR selections combined into a multiple bet.

      The name ‘Lucky 15’ comes from the fact that your four picks create 15 separate bets, broken down like this:

      • 6 Doubles
      • 4 Trebles
      • 4 Singles
      • 1 Four-Fold

      That’s where the 15 comes from.

      A Lucky 15 is also similar to a Super Yankee, although that bet is bigger. A Super Yankee consists of 26 bets in total – 10 doubles, 10 trebles, 5 four-folds and 1 five-fold.

      If you fancy today’s selections, you can use our Lucky 15 horse racing tips above to build this type of wager.

      How Much Does A Lucky 15 Bet Cost?

      Because there are 15 separate bets involved, your total stake is multiplied by 15.

      So, for example, a £1 Lucky 15 will cost £15 in total.

      If you place it each-way (covering both win and place), the cost doubles. A £1 each-way Lucky 15 would therefore come to £30.

      How To Place A Horse Racing Bet?

      To place a bet, head to any of the horse racing betting sites, where you’ll see all the day’s fixtures and racecards.

      Go to the ‘horse racing’ section and find the meeting and race time your horse is running in. Each runner will be listed with their current odds displayed alongside.

      Once you’ve opened an account and deposited funds, you’re ready to go.

      Click on the horse you want to back and it will be added to your bet slip. From there, enter your chosen stake and confirm the bet.

      That’s it – you’re in.
