Andy Newton’s Lay Of The Day Horse Racing Tip: TUESDAY 26th May 2026

4:10 Leicester: HAPPY CHANDLER

CD winner that will be popular here after a nice win at this venue last month.

But failed to build on that next time at Windsor off a 5lbs higher mark and is up another 2lbs here too.

Also had a 3lb claimer on that day and doesn’t today – so even though the return to Leicester is a plus, he also needs a career-best off this mark.

The final negative for me is that he’s still 1-18 in this career, so hasn’t been an easy horse to catch right.

I’ll take backers of Chandler to be ‘unhappy’ here.

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).
