Andy Newton’s Lay Of The Day Horse Racing Tip: Wednesday 17th June 2026
7:00 Ripon: SOMETHING
CD winner here at Ripon when winning here two runs ago at the end of May.
Went up 4lbs for that and just failed to follow-up at Pontefract next time.
Is off the same mark here but had a 7lb claimer riding the last day and doesn’t today.
All four wins have been when rated lower than today’s mark too – so despite looking to have an obvious chance – will need a career-best 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).
