Andy Newton’s Lay Of The Day Horse Racing Tip: Sunday 3rd May 2026

4:55 Salisbury: TAKE THE BOAT

Beaten jolly the last day at Kempton on the AW and is back on the same mark.

Yes, Harry Vigors takes off 7lbs this time, but her last win still came off a 5lbs lower rating and also had a 7lb claimer in that day.

Has only had two runs on the turf too (no wins), with the bulk of her running on the sand surfaces, so still has a bit to prove in these conditions for me.

Plus is taken on proven course winners in Kotari and Sneaky Blinder today, so I’m happy to look elsewhere for the winner.

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).
