Monday's free racing tips: expert selections from the Racing Post team

Handicappers' nap
Arzaak (5.30 Southwell)
Capable Fibresand sprinter on his day and returns to Southwell on a potentially advantageous mark.
Simon Turner
If you rate the ratings, you can have our handicappers' view on every race as part of our Members' Club Essential package
Newmarket nap
King Carney (3.50 Pontefract)
Stayed on well when winning on soft ground at Nottingham last time and should enjoy this stamina test.
David Milnes
Eyecatcher
Global Exceed (7.30 Southwell)
Didn't get much luck after missing the kick at Newcastle last month but was an eyecatching third back from a 73-day break.
Raceform
Our analysts from Raceform find eyecatchers at all meetings in the UK and Ireland, every day. Essential subscribers can read their expert view on every race
Ace Tipster
Prince Of Harts (4.00 Windsor)
Thrashed by Flashcard when last seen in July, but race worked out exceptionally well. Had no problem with bad ground in the spring.
Paul Kealy
Speed Figures
Freyja (3.50 Pontefract)
Has scored twice over 7½f at Beverley recently and can make her presence felt in this better contest over a mile.
Dave Edwards
Spotlight nap
Arrowtown (4.50 Pontefract)
Ran up a hat-trick on similar ground in autumn last year. Performed well at York last time and has strong claims on these terms.
Jonathan Doidge
Racing Post Spotlights are the industry standard for horse-by-horse pre-race previews and tips. You can access them for all races by subscribing to Members' Club Essential
Dark horse
French Flyer (8.00 Southwell)
Dropped to a career-low mark and performed with credit on his sole AW start. His sire Pour Moi has had two winners from 12 runners at Southwell so it would be folly to dismiss his chances at an each-way price.
David Revers
Must-have stat of the day
Ralph Beckett has sent just two horses to the 3.50 at Pontefract, a Listed event for juveniles, and both won. He bids to maintain his unbeaten record in the race with Wyclif.
