THURSDAY'S RACING TIPS: NEWCASTLE & CHELMSFORD CITY
Alan Morris heads to Newcastle and Chelmsford for his best bets this Thursday. 13.34 NEWCASTLE A competitive and open 3m handicap hurdle to consider. Got A Dream should improve further this season over this trip and will come on for his seasonal reappearance third for his shrewd yard. Letterston Lady also looks to have scope to improve beyond the other recent winners. LETTERSTON LADY (WIN) GOT A DREAM (E/W) 13.57 CHELMSFORD Labiche is bred for this trip but was keen on sta

THURSDAY'S RACING TIPS: SALISBURY & NEWCASTLE
Alan Morris tips runners from Salisbury and Newcastle this Thursday with a host of selections to get stuck into. 15:49 SALISBURY Regional Rock returns to the course and distance of his last race that didn't pan out favourably but, with a stronger pace here likely, he can reward backers with some paying four places. Brosay has returned to form and is looking well-handicapped now and with two recent seconds andlooks value against a couple of horses making their handicap debut

WEDNESDAY'S RACING TIPS: KEMPTON, NEWCASTLE & MORE
Liam Hall goes around the courses this Wednesday with selections worth following. 14:45 NEWCASTLE Yordan sets the standard here with winning last time, has set a similair standard on both Racecourse appearances but with the winners 7lb penalty to carry here that makes life harder. There's plenty of runners in this field who likely to be ridden for a low handicap mark which makes challengers to Yordan thin and therefore he's the choice for win purposes. Triple P ran okay on d

SATURDAY'S RACING TIPS: CHESTER, GOWRAN PARK & MORE
Rory Paddock looks through Saturday’s action away from the ITV cameras and pinpoints runners in both the U.K. and Ireland not to ignore. 13:53 CHESTER Former course and distance winner Grey Fable takes the trip over from Ireland to a venue he’s had great success at. Two of his three career victories have come here on the banks of the River Dee and with in form jockey Ray Dawson set for the saddle he could add to his Chester successes.

SATURDAY'S ITV RACING TIPS: NEWCASTLE & YORK
The Northumberland Plate takes centre stage on ITV Racing this Saturday and pundit previews all the live action from Newcastle and York. 13:40 NEWCASTLE A step up to seven furlongs appeared to spark improvement from five-year-old Sergeant Wilko, who went close in a weaker contest at Thirsk last time out. He returns to a venue where he has tasted success before and now races from a mark below his last winning rating. The slight concern is his wider draw, but on Newcastle's st

MONDAY'S RACING TIPS: NEWCASTLE
Matt Polley heads to Newcastle with his best bets of the day coming on the all-weather. 17:30 NEWCASTLE Pantile’s Gift will be popular in the market. There’s mixed messages in his pedigree that this stiff mile and a quarter is what he needs. Sovereign Bright is quite exposed, but is fit and ready to go. It might be worth taking a chance with Raven’s View. He’s clearly been trained with handicaps in mind, and the seven furlongs handicap debut looked sharp enough. Will be suit

SATURDAY'S RACING TIPS: NEWCASTLE, YARMOUTH & MORE
Rory Paddock looks away from Aintree and pinpoints a handful of runners worth following this Saturday. 13:30 NEWCASTLE Hawkseye View was unable to land a blow in stronger company last time, but this represents a marked drop in grade and he returns to a venue where he has an excellent record. With proven course-and-distance form, he looks well placed to bounce back and add to his tally. Empty Nest, another previous winner over this track and trip, appeals as the most obvious

FRIDAY'S ITV RACING TIPS: LINGFIELD & NEWCASTLE
It's all about the all-weather on ITV this Friday and we preview all the live action from Lingfield and Newcastle. 13:30 LINGFIELD Previous course and distance scorers Lady Manzor and Party Bear both catch the eye, returning to a track where they’ve enjoyed success. Each now finds themselves on workable marks and look well treated back in Class 4 company. Lady Dora Mae remains an unexposed type and, with a hat-trick on the line, the progressive three-year-old looks destined

FRIDAY'S RACING TIPS: WETHERBY, NEWCASTLE & MORE
Liam Hall previews three races this Friday with selections from Wetherby, Newcastle and Dundalk. 17:22 WETHERBY A Sight To Sea is likely to go off short here after blowing the field apart in an Irish Point, the form of the race has shown holes but with Harry Skelton riding first time up in a bumper the signs are good and the pedigree suggests this lad won't be short of speed. Noble Way was third on debut and likely to be well supported but he didn't look like a true stayer t

THURSDAY'S RACING TIPS: SEDGEFIELD & NEWCASTLE
Alan Morris previews action from Sedgefield and Newcastle this Thursday as he pinpoints his two best bets. 15.40 SEDGEFIELD A King Of Magic has been progressing well and beat a next time out winner last time in contrast to a couple of previous winners here who need to bounce back. He will need to be ridden closer to the pace if he can lay up, but Paul Nicholls is five from five at Sedgefield in the last two seasons and his conditional jockey has good experience of this uniqu

SATURDAY'S RACING TIPS: NEWCASTLE & SOUTHWELL
Rory Paddock looks away from the ITV action this Saturday and pinpoints three runners elsewhere who could go well. 14:15 NEWCASTLE Jockey Ryan Mania nearly claimed a major race at Cheltenham yesterday but could make up for that defeat a little by taking home success in this. He partners Diamond Mix who has won their last two contests and looks capable of making it three on the spin if fit after a 127 day break. Count Adhemar looks the obvious challenger. DIAMOND MIX (WIN) 17

TUESDAY'S RACING TIPS: NEWCASTLE
Sam King heads to Newcastle and picks out two runners he's backing to bash the bookies this Tuesday. 14:05 NEWCASTLE Green Bonnet looks like the type who has a better effort in her and it's likely that she'll be cherry-ripe following 167 days off. The daughter of Dartmouth was given plenty to do when third at Kelso last time and after just four runs, she ought to have plenty more to offer now stepping slightly back up in trip. Conner McCann is good value for his 7lb claim

TUESDAY'S RACING TIPS: NEWCASTLE & SOUTHWELL
Sam King looks to the all-weather for his best bets this Tuesday with action from Newcastle and Southwell. 15:12 NEWCASTLE Seven Fires looks like the type to continue progressing with racing and she can get off the mark third time out in the six-furlong maiden at Newcastle. Trainer Jack Channon has been operating at a 20% strike rate for the last fortnight and I suspect this well put-together daughter of Sioux Nation has more to offer. A pleasing fourth on debut at Lingfield,

THURSDAY'S RACING TIPS: SEDGEFIELD & NEWCASTLE
Alan Morris previews his best two bets of the day this Thursday. 16:17 SEDGEFIELD Mersey Street is in sound form and handled this unique track well in winning last time out for a yard that will want to crack on now. He clearly stays further and this looks a weaker race on paper than his last win and can boss this small field. Too Cool Forshrule is respected for an under-rated yard that has maintained his ability. He was backed into favouritism in Mersey Street’s win but unsea

THURSDAY'S RACING TIPS: WETHERBY & NEWCASTLE
Alan Morris gives his best bets from Wetherby and Newcastle this Thursday. 15:40 WETHERBY It seems churlish to oppose Bollin Thou on his quest for a four-timer and he only briefly looked in trouble three days ago, with that being put down to the shorter trip rather than penalties and exertions catching up with him. Sean Bowen is back on board and he should go in again but those concerns still give a little doubt. You Did and Clondaw Royale, however, look very strong each-way

TUESDAY'S RACING TIPS: NEWCASTLE
Sam King focuses his attention on the card at Newcastle and pinpoints two runners to get stuck into this Tuesday. 12:43 NEWCASTLE A mark of 72 should prove more than workable for Selenic based on her battling novice success over a mile at Kempton a year ago and you can put a line straight through her handicap debut effort at Southwell, where she found herself badly hampered when making eye-catching progress. A stoutly-bred daughter of Sea The Moon out of a Teofilo mare, Sele

FRIDAY'S ITV RACING TIPS: WINDSOR, MARKET RASEN & MORE
Live ITV action this Friday with races from Windsor, Market Rasen and Newcastle. 13:50 WINDSOR It's unlikely Alinilam is going to reverse the recent form when finishing behind Hansard and the Gary Moore trained runner has a far better chance, especially with less weight to carry. Be Aware represents the top yard of Dan Skelton and after finishing second in arguably a better race looks the one to beat. The consistent No Questions Asked looks the most likely to trouble the sel

FRIDAY'S RACING TIPS: MARKET RASEN, NEWCASTLE & MORE
Liam Hall gives his best bets for Friday as he heads around the courses across UK and Ireland. 12:18 MARKET RASEN The Resdev Tyke got off the mark when winning at Wetherby last time out, that form reads well with the second already being a novice hurdle winner. Bluenose Belle has won twice and been second once from three handicap starts, has been a non-runner due to ground the last twice so this good to soft ground could leave her vulnerable. Drivers Pick has struggled since

THURSDAY'S RACING TIPS: LUDLOW & NEWCASTLE
Alan Morris focuses on Ludlow and Newcastle this Thursday as he looks to jumps racing action for his best bets of the day. 14:17 LUDLOW A few in here need to step up on their limited chasing experience. Another Folly is performing better this season over fences for his in-form yard and will be popular but Jaitroplaclasse looks value to improve for this step up in trip. He was well-backed at Sedgefield last time but hit a flat spot around that speed-flavouring track before sta

SATURDAY'S RACING TIPS: NEWCASTLE
Away from Saturday’s biggest races pundit Rory Paddock heads to Newcastle to unearth some runners worth following. 17:50 NEWCASTLE Former course and distance winner Bonito Cavalo isn’t in the rich vein of form he’s previously been but as such is racing off a very attractive mark. What’s also worth noting is regular jockey Paul Mulrennan has barely accompanied the horse in his current baron spell but now climbs back in the saddle. Not one to go overboard with but could do far
