Andy Newton’s Lay Of The Day Horse Racing Tip: MONDAY 18th May 2026

7:40 Windsor: SON OF MAN

Won on the AW at Lingers two starts back but failed to back that up next time at the same track off a 4lb higher mark.

Is now 7lbs higher than his last win and last time also had Connor Planas taking off 3lbs.

Also heads here with just one win from his last 24 and the Jim Boyle team are just 1-72 with their recent runners here at Windsor.

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).

14:20 Lingfield Park – Primo Lara

“Primo Lara needed his first run back and after a wind-op. He never got involved then but he will enjoy getting back on the turf and the track should suit. From a good draw I’m expecting a big run. “ JACK MORLAND
