Nap of the day: best horse racing tips for the day's four meetings
Thursday's best bets from the Racing Post's unbeatable Spotlights team
Chelmsford
6.10: Kessaar Power
Not many of these are solid. Apart from a modest effort last time, Kessaar Power is an exception with the form of his C&D win and two runner-up efforts during the autumn reading well at this level. The main danger may come from the unexposed Jaamir, who is open to progress now handicapping, while Kitaro Kich and Reel Power also make the shortlist.
David Bellingham
Exeter
3.05: Mister Upton
The 5yo Mister Upton escapes a penalty for last week's win at Hereford, where he had just over 3l to spare in a 13-runner field, and he can follow up. Ileny Royale and Pep Talking (second choice) also arrive in rude health, however, and could still be ahead of the handicapper.
Ben Hutton
Ffos Las
12.57: Followango
All five of these mares make appeal but the suggestion is Followango, who ran well over 2m3f at Lingfield recently and looks interesting on this first attempt at 3m under rules. Flintara ended last season with a commendable run over fences and, if ready to roll after her break, she may provide the main threat.
Chris Wilson
Southwell
2.55: Charencey
Billyb bumped into one over C&D on Saturday and he's a leading contender, while Chola Empire has a strong record over C&D and Lessay still has potential on AW. Bravo Zulu (second choice) is unexposed in blinkers and also still has potential on this surface but Charencey had no luck behind him at Lingfield and could still be well handicapped himself.
