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

Sunday's best bets from the Racing Post's unbeatable Spotlights team . . .
Chelmsford
4.25: Mountain Road
Abraaj takes on much better company in his bid to make it 4-7 on the all-weather this year, but in his current mood and with no stamina doubts he cannot be dismissed. Hedonista and Blow Your Horn could go well and so could Cinnodin if the return to the all-weather galvanises him, but the vote goes to MOUNTAIN ROAD (nap) whose record here reads 211 and who showed his wellbeing with an emphatic success at Newmarket last time.
David Bellingham
Sligo
4.50: Flicker Of Hope
An interesting clash between FLICKER OF HOPE (nap) and I Am Spider Man who both come here in rude health. The latter is up 10lb for a decisive course win over 2m4f and has to prove his stamina over this trip. There are no such concerns for the selection after his win over 3m at Wexford and he can complete a hat-trick as long as there is a little bit of ease in the ground. Sphagnum, who likes it here and ran well over fences last time, isn't out of it.
Mark Nunan
Market Rasen
4.35: Jerrash
The Bowen yard won this last year with one in form and JERRASH (nap) got his career firmly back on track at Bangor nine days ago. He could still be well handicapped despite the 8lb rise. Flic Ou Voyou hinted at a return to form over a trip too far at Cartmel and he's an interesting alternative. Before Midnight is preferred of the others.
Alistair Jones
Limerick
4.40: Mayo For Sam
Though she has been busy lately and is up another 4lb for her Ballinrobe second, MAYO FOR SAM (nap) stands out on current form and can win if repeating that effort. Struck By Churchil was a beaten favourite at Tipperary four days ago but might tighten up for that run. Just Another Eagle might improve for this step up in trip.
Tyrone Molloy
Ayr
5.20: Braes Of Doune
Most of these have something to prove whereas last year's winner BRAES OF DOUNE (nap) was a good second over a mile here in May last time. He can go one better now back up in distance. Mr Boson could be best of the rest following a fair fourth on his stable debut at Chepstow, while Visitant also ran well last time (albeit over 1m6f) and first-time blinkers could be a plus for Millbuie.
