Saturday tipping: our experts with their best bets of the day

Handicappers' nap

Star Alexander (2.20 Bath)

Shaped like a sure-fire future winner on last month's debut. In calmer waters now and should be hard to beat.

Burning up the gallops

Mekong (3.00 York)

Ran a storming race when second to Dee Ex Bee on his comeback and has since impressed on the Al Bahathri.
David Milnes

Eyecatcher

Mekong (3.00 York)

Prefers ground with cut but ran a great race to finish less than two lengths behind Dee Ex Bee on good to firm in the Henry II Stakes. He can confirm the form with Austrian School, who was behind him at Sandown.

Ace Tipster

Fantasy Keeper (2.35 Sandown)

One of the few in the field who relishes soft ground, he ran well at Goodwood on Sunday and will have a big chance if getting a clear run.
Paul Kealy

Irish Angle

Turnberry Isle (5.45 Limerick)

Despite disappointing on his recent handicap debut, this son of Galileo is worth another chance in this mile contest based on some decent juvenile form last season.
Tony O'Hehir

Speed figures

Luxor (3.35 York)

Won decisively on easier ground at Newbury last year and although well below par on reappearance is worth another chance.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Just Wait (5.35 Sandown)

Showed improved form when winning in clear-cut style at Doncaster in May. Despite being below form at Pontefract, when going for a quick double, she made late headway suggesting that this second attempt at 1m6f is a good move.
Richard Austen

Dark horse

History Writer (3.15 Sandown)

Course and distance winner who can be forgiven his latest run at Epsom when appearing to not handle the track. Returning to this venue with conditions to suit, he can go well for the in-form David Menuisier.
Olly Eden

Must-have stat of the day

Frankel is 10-24 (42%) with his 3yo runners at Sandown (+£11.24 to £1 level stakes). New King goes in the 1m1f handicap at 4.25.
