Horse Racing Tips: Nap of the Day and best bets from around the tracks

YORK TOWER - 15:40 Thirsk (NAP)

He’s low mileage, in good hands and YORK TOWER is fancied to show his true colours stepping up to a mile-and-a-half for the first time.

He didn’t run badly in a better race than this on handicap at Epsom during the Derby Meeting but back on a sounder surface and in calmer waters looks ready to confirm his previous promise.

PHANTOM GOLD - 15:55 Worcester

He caught the eye on handicap debut at Southwell last time and PHANTOM GOLD looks very interesting in this.

Jennie Candlish’s charge finished strongly when second to easy winner Prettylady and despite a four pounds rise still looks well treated. He’d seemingly been brought along with handicaps in mind and should be hard to beat.

GOLDWORK - 18:22 Epsom

He was back to form at Newmarket last time and GOLDWORK looks ready to resume winning ways.

Switched back to a sprint trip, he finished third behind Sea Cookie at Newmarket, faring by far the best of those who raced on the far side. He was rallying at the finish too, has form on downhill tracks and races from an unchanged mark.

POST RIDER - 20:18 Bath

Recent course-and-distance winner Swiped will be popular in this, but it might be worth chancing POST RIDER against him.

The selection is dropping down into Class 5 company for the first time since winning at Newmarket in October, races from a reduced mark which allows her to slot into this 0-75 from the ceiling rating. She’ll go to the front, and shaped as if she was on the way back in an amateur riders’ race at Goodwood last time.
