Nap of the day: best horse racing tips for the day's three meetings

Monday's best bets from the Racing Post's unbeatable Spotlights team

Hereford

3.10: Magnificent Ben

Lingfield runner-up Magnificent Ben should be suited by this step back up in distance and is taken to go one better. Kingcormac (second choice) and Supasunrise are other runners who remain unexposed over fences and they may prove the biggest dangers.

Punchestown

2.20: Verdant Place

There is still more to come from the likes of Tramore winner Ahead Of The Posse and possibly from solid performer Champ Royal. Top-weight Gali Flyer sets a good standard on his Leopardstown form, but the one to beat is Verdant Place after an eyecatching handicap debut here in November.

Wolverhampton

6.00: Barenboim

Imperium and Mukha Magic boast 12 all-weather wins between but none on Tapeta, while Pistoletto has done most of his racing over shorter. Barenboim has stamina to prove himself, upped another 5lb and forced into stronger company, but he shapes as though this sort of test will suit and such has been his rate of improvement for this yard he can prove up to the job.
