Expert Steve Mullington gives his daily racing tips, including a NAP, NB and a Longshot. Scroll down now to find out horse racing tips Wednesday 8th June at Hamilton, Fontwell & Wexford...


Today's NAP (Best Bet)

8.20 Hamilton – Chookie Dunedin

The Keith Dalgleish-trained Chookie Dunedin is in the form of his life at the moment and is well fancied to take this 6f handicap at Hamilton.

Already boasting 13 victories from his 78 career starts thus far, the gutsy seven-year-old was last seen giving a 13-strong field a series beating over seven furlongs at Ayr.

Regular jockey Ryan Sexton takes another 5lb off his back which makes him one of the most attractive horse race bets online on Wednesday.

Of the others, the only conceivable danger appears to be from Jordan Electrics who is a course and distance winner.

Today's NB (Next Best)

1.35 Fontwell – Our Three Sons

He may be at the veteran stage now but Our Three Sons is enjoying a little purple patch of form in this sort of grade and can pick up top honours here.

Trained by Charlotte Fuller and ridden by Page, the eleven-year-old had a productive month in May, winning at Plumpton then running another blinder at Southwell the time after.

Horse Racing Tips Wednesday 8th June


Rated 97, Our Three Sons has the standout form in this field of just seven runners, and it would come as a surprise if he doesn’t dominate proceedings.

Those of you looking for a forecast banker should perhaps consider Age Of Wisdom for the Moore’s.

Today's Longshot

4.55 Wexford – Trans Wood

It was June 2018 when Trans Wood tasted his last and sole success at Listowel, but the ten-year-old definitely has an outside squeak in this 2m 4f handicap chase.

Racing off just 10st 10lbs when you include Philip Donovan’s claim, the veteran could well capitalise on his last run at Limerick where he was fairly prominent for most of the race. 

He looks certain to be overlooked by many punters down there at the bottom of the handicap, and should be trading around the 16/1 to 20/1 mark come the off. I make him an each-way dark horse for sure.
