Saturday's free racing tips: six horses to consider putting in your multiples

Saturday's best bets ranked in order of confidence by our top tipsters

Dark horse

Applaud Now (4.56 Leicester)

Ran well in a couple of strong maidens on the all weather, notably at Wolverhampton behind a subsequent Finals Day winner. Was poorly drawn for his handicap debut at Lingfield and this looks a better opportunity.
Rob Sutton

Eyecatcher

(2.55 Ripon)

Would have gone close at Lingfield on his penultimate start with a clear run and will find this a lot easier than the Queen's Cup at Musselburgh last week.
Marcus Buckland

Ace tipster

(2.05 Haydock)

Beaten a similar distance in last season's Spring Cup before obliging at odds of 66-1 just over a week later and a 3lb drop to 93, his lowest rating in nearly six years, makes this game nine-year-old a cracking each-way bet.
Robbie Wilders

Handicappers' nap

Boardman (2.05 Haydock)

Back to the mark from which he completed a hat-trick last May and shaped well from a poor draw on his reappearance last month.

Speed figures

Nube Negra (3.00 Sandown)

Sidelined since a lacklustre fourth over course and distance in December, he earlier romped home at Cheltenham and can again show his true colours.
Dave Edwards

Newmarket nap

Warm Smile (8.20 Wolverhampton)

May not have got home last time at this track but is back in trip and has been showing up nicely in her work on the Limekilns.
