Saturday's free racing tips: six horses to consider putting in your multiple bets

Saturday's best bets ranked in order of confidence by our top tipsters . . .

Handicappers' nap

Portsmouth (1.25 Epsom)

Ran out a comfortable winner over the extended mile here on handicap debut, before just failing to defy a penalty stepped up to today's trip at Goodwood. A further 3lb higher here, but the Goodwood form has worked out particularly well and he can add to trainer Andrew Balding's excellent record in this race.

Eyecatcher

Bubbles Wonky (1.25 Epsom)

Tim Easterby's runner shaped well at Catterick on reappearance and is a likely improver.

The Punt nap

Ziggy (5.15 Epsom)

Returned from 451 days off the track with a fine second behind a stablemate in a 1m2f handicap here last month. He was no match for the winner, who franked the form when winning his next start, but he was entitled to need the run and the return to this longer trip looks a good move by trainer Harry Eustace.

Speed figures

Ancient Wisdom (4.30 Epsom)

Group One winner as a juvenile, had his wings clipped in the Dante but improvement is anticipated and he can give Charlie Appleby his third Derby success.

Dark horse

Macduff (4.30 Epsom)

Battled hard behind Arabian Crown at Sandown and this son of Sea The Stars should be better up in distance. Epsom dries out quickly, so he should have his ground.
