Horse Racing Tips: Nap of the Day

Matt Brocklebank returns to preview the Bank Holiday Monday racing.
TIRIAC might just consent to settle a little better now he's had the two runs to take the sting out of him, having again raced freely early on at Leicester last week. He's only ever won a maiden but that doesn't really do him justice as he was a good third here at Windsor off a 3lb higher mark in October and holds every chance on that piece of form with Amazonian Dream. The cheekpieces (off so far this term) are back on and his yard is in fine form so there's loads to like including his ability to handle soft ground.
HOSTELRY - 3.40 Beverley
It's well worth sticking with HOSTELRY at Beverley. She stayed on strongly to make a winning seasonal return at Thirsk and backed that up with a very solid third at Ripon, finishing just a length and a half behind the red-hot (subsequent winner) Do I Dream. Ruth Carr's mare has been nudged up another couple of pounds but is evidently in great heart and she's eased in class here, with a good draw to boot (stall four).
IRISH LULLABY - 3.50 Warwick
IRISH LULLABY rates the banker bet on the Bank Holiday card at Warwick. A well-bred daughter of Nathaniel who was rated 96 and Listed-placed on the level for Jessica Harrington last year, she made a promising start over jumps at Market Rasen late last month and this looks a pretty straightforward task if going the right way from that introductory outing.
HOTAUGUSTNIGHT - 4.00 Bath
HOTAUGUSTNIGHT made quite an encouraging start for her new stable when fourth over this course and distance last week and, with the cheekpieces worn for some of her best efforts for previous connections back in place, she looks worth another chance off the same mark. There's not much pace on in this event and Luke Morris - who takes over from Finley Marsh in the saddle - should be able to dictate the pace which make the Camelot filly hard to pass on ground we know she'll handle.
GALAHAD QUEST - 4.05 Kempton
Jumping remains a bit of an issue but GALAHAD QUEST could certainly win this if putting in a reasonable round of fencing, having slipped to an attractive mark and had wind surgery since his last outing at Newbury in March. He was well held there but had shaped relatively well on his first two starts of the campaign and good ground will play to his strengths at Kempton. He won on good ground - off this exact mark of 127 - at Warwick last February and he might be in for a productive summer.
