Andy Newton’s Lay Of The Day Horse Racing Tip: Saturday 11th July 2026

5:00 Chester: FAST FRED

Last seen on the AW at Newcastle, when 13th of 20 in the Northumberland Plate consolation race.

Down 2lbs for that here helps and back to 1m4f will be more to his liking.

However, for me, he’s still rated 4lbs higher than his last win (April) and is yet to score off a mark his high from his 5 career wins.

I’ll take something else to be quicker than Fast Fred 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).
