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

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

The Punt nap

Caught the eye over course and distance last time when beaten a little more than two lengths in fifth, and is better off at the weights with the winner here. He was a comfortable course-and-distance winner in January and the return of Ryan Sexton, who was aboard that day, looks a big plus.

Eyecatcher

Elforleather (3.00 Lingfield)

Although beaten almost eight lengths as favourite on his handicap debut, the Jack Channon-trained three-year-old was up against a couple of very well-handicapped rivals and is entitled to build on that return.

Handicappers' nap

Resplendent Grey (4.08 Wincanton)

Has failed to build on the promise of his Chepstow reappearance behind the smart Captain Teague, but is down to a good looking mark and should run well for the in-form Olly Murphy.

Speed figures

Robber's Bridge (4.38 Wincanton)

Gained an overdue first success on testing ground at this track last month and the Simon Earle-trained six-year-old should not be inconvenienced by this longer trip.

Dark horse

Busby (2.20 Newcastle)

Lost his way last year but encouragement to take from two runs at this track this year and he has come down to a workable mark.

West Country nap

Royal Mer (3.38 Wincanton)

In-form chaser who has flourished since dropping in trip and being ridden prominently. Handles testing ground and can complete the hat-trick.
