Nap of the day: best horse racing tips for Monday's three meetings

Monday's best bets from the Racing Post's unbeatable Spotlights team

Ayr

3.20: Duyfken
Serious Ego has been in fine form recently but preference is for the progressive DUYFKEN, who was a good third at Kelso on his reappearance.

Chelmsford

7.30: Urban Sprawl
Being effectively ahead of the assessor with a rise in the weights almost certainly impending, URBAN SPRAWL can open his AW account. Court Of Session, who has a solid chance, is second choice ahead of Keyser Soze who returned to form last time.

Lingfield

2.05: Chandlers Bay
An open race with some interesting prospects, not least CHANDLERS BAY, who did well to get as close as he did on his final qualifying run at Plumpton and is likely to come into his own now handicapping. Celtic Ned and Nordic Tiger also fall into this bracket, while Tintintin should come on for his Cheltenham run, when nearly 8l behind Artistic Endeavour but without that one's fitness edge.
