Andy Newton’s Lay Of The Day Horse Racing Tip: Saturday 18th July 2026

4:21 Cartmel: KINGOFTHEGAME

Beat Star Turn the last day here over this CD and will be fancied to uphold that form.

But is up 5lbs for that and meets that rival on 2lbs worse terms now, plus the runner-up also have a 7lb claimer on this time.

We’ve also got another CD winner in the race in Halfway House Lad.

While despite winning well the last twice the pick is yet to win off a mark in the 80’s.

In short, we could be sailing close to the wind here, but with another step forward needed, I’ll take something else to dethrone Kingofthegame.

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).
