Spotlight Lucky 15 tips: four horses to back on Friday

The best four Spotlight tips to include in a Lucky 15 bet today . . .

What is a Lucky 15?

A Lucky 15 is one of the most popular multiple bets among horseracing punters and the clue is in the name as a Lucky 15 consists of 15 bets on four selections in different events. That equals four singles, six doubles, four trebles and a fourfold accumulator. The beauty of the Lucky 15 is that only one selection of four must win to guarantee a return and the majority of bookmakers will offer incentives to play the bet.

Djelo 12.40 Newbury
Rallied well to win at Aintree (2m, soft; first two clear) last month on chase/seasonal debut and the form has a very solid look to it; should improve further over fences and warrants respect up 7lb.

Nickle Back 1.50 Newbury
Mixed results over hurdles last season, failing to add to an impressive earlier win; however, has taken very well to fences this term, winning handicaps at Warwick (2m4f, good) and Stratford (2m3f, soft) by an aggregate of 43l; brings a respectable rating to this higher grade and is a very nice prospect for Sarah Humphrey; interesting, given his recent dominance.

Kandoo Kid 2.25 Newbury
Unfortunate to bump into well-treated Nickle Back (declared 1.50) on chase debut; solid second in C&D contest (good to soft; off 6lb lower) since, beaten by only a neck and pulling well clear of remainder; looks capable of going one better.

Ed Keeper 3.35 Newbury
Placed in two maiden hurdles on soft before winning one at Bangor (2m3f, good to soft) in March, prevailing in a good scrap with the front two drawing 21l clear; 7-2, tongue tied when good second of 11 in novice handicap at Ascot (2m3f, soft) four weeks ago, always close up and front two clear; up 6lb but looks set for further progress and well worth a go at this trip.

How to calculate your Lucky 15 returns

How much your bet returns will depend on how many selections win, and their respective odds. For example, if two of your selections win then you can expect to be paid out on two single bets, and a double of the two selections. If three selections win then you can expect to be paid out on three singles, three doubles and a treble, and so on. If you're still not sure how much your bet will return, you can work out your returns using our free bet calculator.
