Friday's tips: our experts with their best bets for the final day of Cheltenham

Handicappers' nap

Mohaayed (2.10 Cheltenham)

Hasn't shown much since his seasonal reappearance, but is of interest off his reduced mark on his first run following a wind op.

Eyecatcher

Arafi (7.30 Southwell)

Caught wide without cover for much of the way last time and this was a more than respectable start to her career.

West Country nap

Umbrigado (5.30 Cheltenham)

Connections reach for the cheekpieces for the first time and it is hoped they will have the desired effect.
Andrew King

Ace tipster

Front View (5.30 Cheltenham)

Represents last year's winning team and boasts strong claims on handicap debut off a mark of 135. Wasn't beaten far by Envoi Allen in November and proved he stays this trip last time.
Tom Collins

Newmarket nap

Claudius Secundus (2.20 Lingfield)

James Tate’s colt was a decent second on debut at Kempton last month and has thrived since.
David Milnes

Speed figures

Allmankind (1.30 Cheltenham)

Has not put a foot wrong over hurdles and this unbeaten trailblazer can stretch his winning sequence to four.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Al Boum Photo (3.30 Cheltenham)

Jumped soundly when winning this decisively last year and the way he saw it out suggests stamina shouldn't be an issue on soft ground.
Mel Cullinan

Irish angle

Latest Exhibition (2.50 Cheltenham)

The Paul Nolan-trained seven-year-old struck at the Dublin Racing Festival last month and the extra two furlongs here should be right up his street.
Tony O'Hehir

Dark horse

Thatsy (2.10 Cheltenham)

Squeezed for room at a crucial time in a Leopardstown handicap last time out before finishing strongly. Gordon Elliott's gelding should appreciate the likely strong gallop and remains unexposed.
Olly Eden

Must-have stat of the day

Gina Andrews has four wins and four places from sixteen rides over fences at Cheltenham in the last five years, for a £1 level-stakes profit of £48.75. One of her wins was on Kalabaloo and that mare has solid each-way claims in the Foxhunter at 4.10.
