Saturday's free racing tips: punting pearls from our top team

Handicappers' nap

Dame Freya Stark (7.00 Lingfield)

Looked a handicapper with much more to offer when off the mark at Yarmouth last time. That form has been franked and fancied to follow up.

Newmarket nap

Jubiloso (3.00 Sandown)

Looked very unlucky when boxed in with nowhere to go at Goodwood last time and Sir Michael Stoute's filly has since impressed on the Al Bahathri.
David Milnes

Eyecatcher

Jubiloso (3.00 Sandown)

Should have won the Group 3 Oak Tree Stakes at Goodwood last time, but she took too long to switch out in the home straight and had to settle for third. That was over 7f but a return to a mile looks ideal and she can atone.

Irish Angle

Linger (5.45 Down Royal)

A last-fence faller over fences at Tramore last time, the Joseph O'Brien-trained six-year-old was a good winner at the Galway festival on his most recent Flat start and can strike up in trip in the Ulster Cesarewitch.
Tony O'Hehir

Ace Tipster

Desert Icon (2.05 Beverley)

More progressive than his form figures imply and only beaten by a likely Group horse last time. Stiff 1m2f unlikely to pose a problem and this isn't the most competitive race for the money.
Keith Melrose

Speed Figures

Solid Stone (2.25 Sandown)

A beaten favourite over a mile at Yarmouth on Sunday, he should appreciate this step up in trip and be given a chance to make amends.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Dame Freya Stark (7.00 Lingfield)

Held in three novices at up to a mile but related to several winners at this sort of trip so no surprise to see a much improved display last time when winning a 1m2f handicap debut at Yarmouth. Up 6lb but this front-runner should have plenty more to offer.
Stuart Redding

Dark horse

Gracious John (1.50 Sandown)

Has dropped a fair way in the weights, a stone below his last winning mark, and ran an eyecatching race on debut for Ian Williams last time. Angus Villiers takes off a handy 7lb.
David Revers

Must-have stat of the day

Harry Bentley rides Chester well – he has a record of 7-18 there since the start of 2018 for a £1 level-stake profit of £29.25. Four of his winners were for Ralph Beckett and he rides Dirty Dancer for that trainer (1.35).
