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

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

Handicappers' nap

Mister Whitaker (1.55 Carlisle)

A 150+ chaser who scored at the 2018 Cheltenham Festival, he can take advantage of his novice status over hurdles on his debut for new connections.

Ace tipster

Battle Of Actium (2.05 Ludlow)

Has left Joseph O'Brien but lands in a weak-looking race on British debut and remains with potential over fences.
Keith Melrose

West Country

Great Ocean (5.05 Newton Abbot)

Considered a leading prospect by Philip Hobbs and brings experience to the table from his point-to-point days. Yard won a bumper at the last meeting here.
James Stevens

Speed figures

Haunted Dream (6.10 Wolverhampton)

Had plenty in hand when scoring at Chelmsford a week ago and the improving grey can make short work of his penalty.
Dave Edwards

Eyecatcher

Present Chief (3.40 Carlisle)

Good opportunity to register a first success over fences after his encouraging third at Worcester on his chase debut last month.
Dave Randall

Our analysts from Raceform find eyecatchers at all meetings in the UK and Ireland, every day. Essential subscribers can read their expert view on every race

Dark horse

Frow (5.30 Wolverhampton)

David Brown's string is in good form and Ray Dawson, who has twice ridden him to success in five rides including over course and distance, is back in the saddle.
