Monday's free racing tips: best bets to start the week from Racing Post staff

Handicappers' nap

Song Of The Hunter (2.50 Hereford)

In the lead and seemingly heading for a career-best figure when falling at the second-last on his handicap debut over course and distance last month. Can gain compensation under a talented conditional.

Newmarket nap

Blow Your Horn (7.15 Wolverhampton)

Entitled to come on for his fourth over course and distance before Christmas and has since impressed in his work on the Al Bahathri Polytrack.
David Milnes

Ace tipster

Grand Turina (2.40 Doncaster)

Has had her problems, but last month's third was a huge step up on her reappearance effort and that gives her a fine chance if she stays on her first run beyond 3m.
Paul Kealy

Speed figures

Truckers Pass (2.05 Doncaster)

Has proved costly to follow in finishing runner-up in all three starts under rules but it could pay to keep faith in the Philip Hobbs-trained seven-year-old.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Perfect Rose (4.45 Wolverhampton)

Ex-Mark Johnston maiden who ran her best race for current connections when a close second over course and distance last Monday. The stop-start pace wasn't ideal there and she holds leading claims off the same mark.
Graham Wheldon

Dark horse

Muay Thai (5.15 Wolverhampton)

Solid return from a break when fourth at Kempton last time. Can take a step forward with that run behind him and he should be competitive at this level off a 2lb lower mark.
