Nap of the day: best horse racing tips for the day's five meetings
Tuesday's best bets from the Racing Post's unbeatable Spotlights team
Listowel
4.25: Old Faithful
Call it a premier nursery or a rated race, it seems most Irish trainers still don't want to know about this type of contest. He faces some likeable rivals but Old Faithful could easily be lobbed in here off an effective mark of 84.
Mark Nunan
Newcastle
8.00: Patontheback
It's reasonable to expect another good run from Slippin Jimmy but the one in prime form is Patontheback, who has been placed twice on turf since last month's emphatic course-and-distance win and is sure to be suited by today's return to Tapeta. Class-dropper Ramiro also has possibilities.
Chris Wilson
Redcar
3.00: Pepsi Cat
Preference is for Pepsi Cat, who holds a solid chance on recent form and remains unexposed over 5f. Emeralds Pride, another in-form filly, is second choice ahead of Opal Storm, who has low mileage and may build on her Carlisle win. Garifullina may show improvement, while plenty of the others also have possibilities.
Steve Boow
Uttoxeter
4.55: Sacchoandvanzetti
Presenting Pete was too strong for Sacchoandvanzetti over course-and-distance three weeks ago but the likely slower ground, combined with a pull in the weights, can enable Fergal O'Brien's runner to turn the tables today. Ragamuffin (second choice) and Democritus also arrive in good form, while Ibbenburen, Howling Milan and Heross Du Seuil have all been given a good chance by the handicapper.
Chris Wilson
Yarmouth
5.10: Battista
Plenty are in with a shout. Dual course-and-distance scorer Queen's Company (second choice) brings very solid credentials and the consistent pair Forest Demon and Tarbaan must also enter calculations. Panning For Gold and Bold Ribb offer potential on their first go over this trip but Battista appeals as very much one to keep on the right side of in handicaps and he gets the vote.
