Expert Steve Mullington gives his daily racing tips, including a NAP, NB and a Longshot. Scroll down now to find out horse racing tips Friday 10th June at Newton Abbot, Sandown and York...
Today's NAP (Best Bet)
6.51 Newton Abbot – Sebastopol
On official ratings the Tom Lacey-trained Sebastopol is a class above his rivals here and should take all the beating in this 2m ½f affair.
Sebastopol was last seen running third to N’golo in the Swinton hurdle at Haydock which was a fair enough result given that his previous six runs had all been over regulation chase fences, and he had taken to that sphere really well.
Lacey has switched him back to the big obstacles once again here and I can see the eight-year-old dominating from the front.
Forecast backers may want to consider Leapaway for the runner-up spot given that he filled the same spot behind our nap back in April at Chepstow.
Today's NB (Next Best)
2.20 Sandown – Liangel Hope
The Ontoawinner-owned Liangel Hope is having a fruitful three-year-old season thus far and can put up another bold show today under William Buick.
Trainer David O’Meara has been in cracking form this last fortnight or so and it is rare for any of his stable to underperform at the present moment.
Jockey William Buick is a class act too which makes Liangel Angel a really solid each-way proposition for any punters placing their horse racing online bets at Sandown on Friday.
A danger on paper could come from Alan King’s Reversion who has been gelded and tackles handicap company for the first time.
Today's Longshot
4.05 York – Ugo Gregory
Ugo Gregory showed glimmers of his old self at Beverley a fortnight ago and has lent himself to being a speculative each-way bet given his attractive weight in this field.
The six-year-old grey gelding has been a fairly prolific winner for Tim Easterby, winning 8 of his 45 starts and placing on 10 other occasions.
He was a course and distance scorer here last October and jockey Dave Allan has already partnered him to four of his victories.
An open affair like this usually requires more than one selection and a few each-way pennies will also be going the way of Wobwobwob who looks like a winner waiting to happen.
