Thursday's free racing tips: our experts give their best bets of the day

Handicappers' nap

Fox Hill (5.55 Leicester)

Created a good impression at Thirsk last week when a comfortable winner of an easier race. Strong claims under a fixed penalty.

Newmarket nap

Ahdab (8.25 Leicester)

Kieren Fallon does the homework on this three-year-old who ran into decent newcomer Astro King at Wolverhampton last time.
David Milnes

Ace tipster

The Detainee (8.10 Bath)

Well handicapped on last year's form and did not shape as badly as the distance beaten suggests last time in March.
Keith Melrose

Spotlight nap

Indian Sounds (5.10 Bath)

His wins for Mark Johnston came at 6/7f but he's unexposed at this trip and went close off a career-low rating at Thirsk last week. On same mark here and a big player if he can repeat the same form.
Steve Boow

Speed figures

Establish (6.40 Bath)

Has reached the frame in three of his four starts, made a pleasing return at Lingfield recently and Roger Varian's colt can belatedly relinquish his maiden tag.
Dave Edwards

Dark horse

Zephyrina (6.55 Leicester)

Less exposed than most of these and did best of those who raced in the rear at Pontefract on her reappearance. The third from that race has won since and she may have more to offer with that run under her belt.
Simon Giles

View from France

Tepeka (10.40 Longchamp)

Shaped well when placed at this level the last twice and the trip should be in his favour.
