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

Saturday's best bets from the Racing Post's unbeatable Spotlights team

Naas

12.30: Slade Steel

Supreme Novices' winner Slade Steel was mastered by the Martin Pipe winner in a tactical battle on his chasing debut. He should go one better now at the main expense of Lecky Watson, the selected of four Willie Mullins-trained runners. Staffordshire Knot has an edge over Answer To Kayf on Fairyhouse running, but both horses are capable of getting in the mix.

Plumpton

1.10: Alien Storm

Dubrovnik Harry has steered clear of fences since his first attempt two years ago but his hurdling ability is hugely respected. He could be the danger, but Alien Storm is back at the scene of both his wins and returning to further looks a good move. However, none of these are discounted.

Southwell

2.52: Easter Icon

The vast majority of these have something to prove but Easter Icon is a glaring exception and he can add to his win at Fontwell in August. The step back up in trip is a likely plus for the lightly raced five-year-old Danny's Friend and he is second choice. Kuma Beach is one to watch in the betting on her handicap debut.

Wolverhampton

4.30: My Turn Now

Preference is for course-and-distance winner My Turn Now, who returned from wind surgery with a convincing win at Chelmsford and is still on a fair mark despite going back up 3lb. Suanni was runner-up behind the selection last month and he's feared most ahead of Kyber Crystal, who is still unexposed on the all-weather and was an eyecatching third at Southwell four weeks ago. The in-form four-year-old Darkened Edge also enters the reckoning.
