Saturday's free racing tips: six horses to consider putting in your multiples

Saturday's best bets ranked in order of confidence by our top tipsters . . .


Eyecatcher

Godwinson (3.15 Newbury)

Better than he showed in a good Kempton novice on his last start in August. This well-bred type is open to improvement on his handicap debut.

Handicappers' nap

First Street (2.25 Ayr)

Has faced some stiff tasks since winning last season's Gerry Feilden off an official rating of 146, but has dropped to a tempting mark of 143 and should make a bold bid to resume winning ways.

The Punt nap

Favour And Fortune (2.25 Ayr)

Sixth in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle, the form of which was franked at Aintree last week. The Alan King-trained six-year-old looks potentially well treated for his handicap debut.

Speed figures

Mr Vango (3.35 Ayr)

Recorded a standout time when routing his rivals in an Exeter marathon in February and ran as well as could be expected in the National Hunt Chase at Cheltenham. Lightly raced and progressive, he can make the long journey from Wantage worthwhile.

West Country nap

Bampton Star (1.40 Bangor)

Improving type who is seeking a hat-trick over fences. Strong stayer at this distance and should have more to offer.

Dark horse

Stay Away Fay (3.35 Ayr)

Grade 1 winner over hurdles and looked just as good over fences when winning his first two starts. Bubble well and truly burst last time at Cheltenham when running no race and being pulled up, but had excuses and has always shaped like a thorough stayer. Despite shouldering top weight here, he has more than enough ability to make his presence felt.
