Thursday's free racing tips: our team pinpoint their punting fancies

Handicappers' nap

Maskada(3.10 Fakenham)

Warwick juvenile winner who is back in calmer waters after a decent run in Grade 1 company last time. Could prove well-treated on her handicap debut.

Newmarket nap

Barbelo (1.15 Southwell)

Richard Spencer's grey ran a decent third to two smart types at Wolverhampton last time and has since moved well on Warren Hill.
David Milnes

Eyecatcher

Cap Du Nord (2.35 Fakenham)

Fiddled his fences at times when last seen and got caught a little tapped for toe off the home turn. He ideally wants better ground and is on a fair mark.

West Country nap

Eden Du Houx (3.55 Wetherby)

Has undergone wind surgery since his last outing and can make a winning return to action.
Andrew King

Ace tipster

The Flying Sofa (1.25 Fakenham)

Has generally kept good company this season, running well without winning. Drops markedly in grade now.
Keith Melrose

Speed figures

St Just (6.30 Newcastle)

Had a bit up his sleeve when opening his account at Lingfield last month and can follow up off a 6lb higher mark.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Dino Boy (2.10 Wetherby)

Point winner who showed improved form to win over course and distance on chase debut and ran to a similar level in defeat at Wincanton last time. Open to improvement and has solid claims in this company.

Dark horse

Cap Du Nord (2.35 Fakenham)

Placed in a competitive Sandown handicap last time out when he appeared to not get home on testing ground. Could improve down in class on a better surface.
