Nap of the day: best horse racing tips for the day's five meetings

Monday's best bets from the Racing Post's unbeatable Spotlights team. . .

Kempton

6.00: Clipsham La Habana

Being unexposed over 7f and an interesting type returned to the all-weather Clipsham La Habana could well record a first win since joining Alice Haynes. Forever A Diamond, back at her likely optimum trip, is second choice ahead of Al Ameen and Soar Above.

Laytown

4.35: Dream Today

Successful over 7f at the 2022 fixture and in this race last year, Dream Today can exploit a mark 10lb below his current 83 AW rating on his second start for Jack Davison. The selection's former trainer Ado McGuinness could go close with Dontspoilasale. Recent turf form gives Dynamic Force a clear chance.

Thirsk

2.15: Magic Love

Although Fallen Soldier is worth considering, having shown improved form on his handicap debut when upped in trip, the choice is Magic Love who has shown promise in a couple of fair races at Newbury and starts his life in handicaps at a fairly lowly level.

Windsor

1.35: Hello Zabeel

The six-year-old Hello Zabeel has less inspiring seasonal form figures than many but it could be that he needs a break between his races. Harry's Halo and Lahina Bay are hard to knock in their current form and feared in that order.

Worcester

2.25: Issuing Authority

Frere d'Armes usually contests much stronger races than this and has slipped to a very tempting mark, but he has something to prove at the moment. Stablemates Chance A Tune (second choice) and Bagheera Ginge have good claims but there is still a bigger performance in Issuing Authority who, for very different reasons, has not enjoyed a favourable tactical scenario in his last two races.
