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
Chelmsford
7.15: Mayfair Gold
The unexposed Moonspirit looks interesting on handicap debut being related to several AW winners, while course-and-distance winner Tahasun is likely to go well given that she looks much better on the AW than on turf. Hey Lyla shouldn't have a problem with the longer trip on breeding and is another to consider, but MAYFAIR GOLD holds particularly solid claims. Her record over course and distance reads 212 and her latest second could hardly be working out better with the first and third having gone in since.
David Bellingham
Dundalk
2.10: Queen Maedbh
An unchanged mark of 91 following her Fairyhouse second gives QUEEN MAEDBH a possible edge over several useful older rivals, notably Dandyville, a course-and-distance winner on his final two 2022 visits, and Harry's Bar whose win in this race last year was obtained off 4lb higher. Hispanic has off-putting form figures but should not be written off.
Alan Sweetman
Lingfield
3.50: Desert Falcon
Sir Mark Prescott improvers often run up a sequence and therefore it's worth sticking with DESERT FALCON, who is two from two this term. Restrict, assuming he's able to continue his progress back from a break, is feared most ahead of handicap debutant Resolute Man. A few others also have possibilities.
Steve Boow
Newcastle
7.30: Reflex
The unexposed REFLEX showed improved form in a first-time visor on his all-weather/handicap debut at Wolverhampton recently and can prove too strong for Indication Rocket and the more exposed Masham Moor.
Colin Russell
Nottingham
4.30: Northern Spirit
Brian Ellison's NORTHERN SPIRIT has to be of strong interest after finishing best of the rest at Yarmouth behind last weekend's Shergar Cup winner Dark Trooper. Mick Appleby runs two unexposed sprinters in Billyjoh and Johnny James, who are feared in that order.
