Kieran McHugh heads to Ireland for his best bets this Sunday with action on the flat at Naas and over jumps at Limerick. 16:02 LIMERICK Perhaps not the best Grade Three you are ever likely to see. Ad Caelum and Slotty Dotty need to find more, which leaves us with two. Uhavemeinstiches has been pretty good, placing behind some smart mares. She fell early in the Leinster National and she could be the form pick. However, You Oughta Know was fancied in the Kerry National before s

Toby Darby picks out two runs set to enter the stalls on Sunday morning that he’s looking to back at Sha Tin. 07:30 SHA TIN In the race before the Derby one of Hong Kong’s rising stars Hot Delight will face his toughest test yet, he travels strongly into his races yet has a potent turn of foot. Cool Boy could well be his biggest threat, he comes here off the back of 3 convincing wins, if either of these two win convincingly they will be well above average. Mickley always runs

Rory Paddock previews all 9 races shown live on ITV this Saturday with action from Newbury, Kelso and Bangor-On-Dee. 13:00 KELSO Listed scorer and top-rated Hollygrove Cha Cha underlined her class with a smooth success in a similar contest last time. This is a slightly bigger field, but arguably lacks the same depth as that recent assignment. Despite shouldering top weight, she sets the clear standard and looks the one they all have to beat. Of the others, Star Walking appea

Rory Paddock previews all the live Friday night ITV action from Wolverhampton. 17:30 WOLVERHAMPTON The Ian Williams-trained Green Team last won on the all-weather in March of last year, with both victories on an artificial surface coming here at Wolverhampton and both under this jockey Billy Loughnane. Racing off an attractive mark there's plenty in his favour. GREEN TEAM (E/W) 18:00 WOLVERHAMPTON Marry The Night has won three of their last four starts and as such demands pl

Liam Hall previews the best of the action this Friday with selections from Musselburgh and Dundalk. 15:22 MUSSELBURGH Light Fandango bolted up last time at Doncaster, his only blips have come on soft ground so should continue to thrive on the better ground he'll find up in Scotland but has another 6lb rise to improve to in a deeper contest. The value looks to be Star Of Guiting, loves it over this CD including a win in the very competitive Scottish County Hurdle, Pulled up re

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

Rory Paddock pinpoints a quartet of runners not to ignore this Wednesday across all three meetings. 15:15 HUNTINGDON Pure Ocean makes her hurdling debut after an encouraging effort in a NHF contest earlier in the year. It doesn't look like a race that's strong in depth, and it won't take much to win. The closest rival looks to be Kayla's Friend who's an Irish import who makes their yard debut for trainer Olly Murphy. PURE OCEAN (WIN) 16:30 HEREFORD It's interesting to see th

Sam King gives his best two bets this Tuesday with selections from Wetherby and Wolverhampton. 15:47 WETHERBY  Kalhandrion took his record to two from five over fences with a commanding success at Exeter last time and he looks to have been leniently assessed by the handicapper. Richard Hobson's charge made all to strike recently and a 4lb rise in the handicap appears more than manageable. The first-time cheekpieces worn that day are retained and with an easy lead possible, h

Alan Morris looks back on what was one of the busiest and most prestigious weeks in racing and finds two runners punters need to put in their trackers. EVELYN’S GARDEN (K SCOTT) Evelyn’s Garden was sent off at 200-1 in three quick maiden runs at Newcastle earlier this year and was not that competitive but obtained a handicap rating of 47. The 3yo filly showed her first semblance of form this week at 50-1 in a class 6 handicap at the same track travelling well enough for a lo

Matt Polley tipped a 66/1 winner at last weeks Cheltenham festival and he returns to give his best bets for Monday. 16:00 FFOS LAS El Rojo Grande is having a great season. He’s always looked like this step up in trip would be beneficial, but it’s not guaranteed. Boston Joe has some decent form here. If you forgive his latest start at Chepstow, he would have a chance. Port Or Starboard is the choice. He looks like he’s running into form after a promising run last time, and his

Kieran McHugh gives his best bets of the day this Sunday. 16:20 CURRAGH The first big competitive flat race of the year, the Irish Lincoln. Orandi won this race last year and arrives here six pounds heavier. That is not too steep, and Ryan Moore is an interesting booking. Whip Cracker has hit the post a few times in big handicaps and champion jockey Oisin Murphy has come across to ride. Richard Hughes is in flying form, and he charge stands a good chance. Pink Oxalis won a bi

Live action on ITV this Saturday with seven races from Uttoxeter and Kempton including the Midlands Grand National. 13:50 UTTOXETER The JP McManus owned Thanksforthehelp took home a top-class handicap over in Ireland not too long ago and despite not producing the same quality in their last four starts since he's got plenty of talent and runs off an attractive mark for trainer David Pipe. Former course and distance winner Below The Radar has been pretty consistent and can thr
