Free horse racing tips for Thursday, April 10 at Newton Abbot, Lingfield, Newcastle and Hereford

Handicappers' nap

Musique De Fee (3.55 Newton Abbot)

Much improved on last couple of starts and form of most recent win at Sedgefield was boosted when well-beaten third won next time. Can defy another hefty rise in the handicap under Josh Bryan.

Eyecatcher

Dexter (2.10 Newton Abbot)

Sophie Leech's gelding made an encouraging return when fourth after a 556-day absence last month and that looks a run he can build on.

The Punt nap

Rebel Star (4.45 Lingfield)

Unlucky to finish runner-up in all three handicap starts, including a narrow defeat over course and distance last month. Weighted to reverse form with the winner here and could be hard to catch from the front for Robert Cowell.

Dark horse

Briery Bee (4.20 Hereford)

Showed some promise in bumpers, notably at Southwell last May in a race that has worked out well. Not shown a lot in two runs over hurdles but the form of the races has worked out okay. Looks interesting now going handicapping.
