Nap of the day: best horse racing tips for the day's five meetings
Friday's best bets from the Racing Post's unbeatable Spotlights team . . .
Exeter
3.35: Wiseguy
Coco Mademoiselle is greatly feared as her Worcester form looks strong and that was her first run over fences. Beachcomber also hinted at better to come on his chase debut, Bangers And Cash has the class to threaten off top weight, while Egbert will go well if on a going day and he had one of those on his reappearance last season. However, the course-and-distance handicap that Wiseguy won here last November (after a break) took a bit of winning and he wasn't the only horse from his yard whose light dimmed during the second half of the season.
Alistair Jones
Hexham
1.02: Kelce
Return Fire, Gipsy Lee Rose and Gibberwell enter calculations (in that order of preference) as they have performed well in this race previously. However, unexposed chaser Kelce is 3lb ahead of the assessor and may prove difficult to beat.
Steve Boow
Fontwell
1.25: Samazul
With further improvement a possibility, Samazul is taken to follow up his reappearance success. Call Off The Dogs, who has done well here this season, is second choice ahead of Sir Rock and Leading Swoop.
Steve Boow
Dundalk
6.30: Sakti
Ger Lyons became the latest addition to the Breeders' Cup roll of honour last weekend, and he has more than one serious chance here. It would be no surprise if Vivienda could run a big race on her debut at this level, but the one to beat should be the consistent Sakti, who's only win came on this surface and who has been consistent at this level. Cloud Cover and Red Viburnum are respected, while Iseult Of Ireland could be best of the Ballydoyle trio.
Justin O'Hanlon
Newcastle
6.45: Too Much
Golden Duke (second choice) and Haworth Star can go well but Too Much fairly bolted up on her first crack at sprinting here three weeks ago and can make light of a 7lb rise.
