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

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

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

13:20 CHELTENHAM I’m not convinced any trainer should have nine of a field of twenty, even if it’s not handicap skullduggery but Willie Mullins sets us a poser within the race here. The impressive-looking Proactif looked strong and professional in winning his second start and first for the Closutton maestro. Highland Crystal and Tuesday’s smart winner Saratoga pulled well clear at Naas and with the fillies’ allowance she looks good each-way value though she is one of a few wh

13:20 CHELTENHAM The two that are likely to head the market, namely Bambino Fever and Oldschool Outlaw have collateral form. Both are obviously talented mares, open to improvement, however there’s a chance both would prefer more rain. It may pay to look further down the market that could run well at a price, and that mare is Kingston Queen. She obviously has a little to find according to the ratings, but her run in the Grade two bumper at Aintree was a very good effort (Oldsc

13:20 CHELTENHAM Ballyfad was very unlucky in a Grade One last time out but he could have questions upped in trip. I’ll Sort That is a Grade One winner and is unbeaten in four over hurdles. He is a fighter who will stay up the hill. No Drama This End has been highly successful so far and was impressive in the Challow last time out. His course and distance form only adds to his claims and he is the one they have to beat. NO DRAMA THIS END (WIN) I’LL SORT THAT (E/W) written by

It's day one of the biggest racing festivals in the world, and we kick off the Cheltenham Festival as the Racing Daily team previews all seven races on Tuesday. 13:20 CHELTENHAM A strong field heads to post in this year’s Supreme Novices Hurdle, and for once, what seems like a fair split in terms of British and Irish chances. Old Park Star has done no wrong this season and rightfully heads the market, he has shown plenty of pace but equally should have no problems climbing

Matt Polley previews two races from Taunton to kick start the week. 15:10 TAUNTON  Postponed Legacy has won three of his last four starts, but still hasn’t reached a mark of a hundred. His limit is unknown. Tilehurst isn’t really bred for this, but shows ability, along with Siam Park who is back hurdling after a tumble over fences. A flyer is taken with top weight Moutarde. He’s been keeping higher company than this, and this track and ground will definitely suit him, and add

Kieran McHugh previews two races this Sunday as he pinpoints a couple of runners he’s backing. 14:50 CARLISLE Hilcrest is a case of ‘what could have been’ and he nearly got his head back in front last time out. He keeps the visor on, but my heart would rule my head more. Tommy’s Oscar was good at Musselburgh, last time out, but this is his first time over three miles in six years. The vote goes to Credo. Despite recent form, he won this race last year and arrives three pounds

Liam Hall focuses his attention on the action from Ayr and Dundalk this Friday to round off the working week with some winners, 15:20 AYR A tricky little maiden hurdle but I'd be expect to see Largy Go be all the rage here. A winning pointer on debut, followed that up with a pleasing second on Racecourse debut and should be more than good enough to take the honours in this contest. Irish raider Dahab was a decent flat horse, lost his way on the flat since joining connections

Alan Morris previews two races this Thursday as he hunts for winners to boost our betting balance. 14.45 HAYDOCK Wal Buck’s won well recently at Kelso and with the yard in better form and a Haydock win under his belt he looks ready to progress further here in a weak race for the grade. A Midlands Grand National entry hints at stable expectations as well. Ki Woo could improve for the better ground and also has potential for improvement. WAL BUCK’S (WIN) 16.00 LINGFIELD Montu i
