Free horse racing tips for Friday, July 11 at Newmarket, York and Ascot

Handicappers' nap

Sayidah Dariyan (2.45 York)

This progressive filly took her form up a notch when finishing fourth in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot last month under today's rider Billy Loughnane. She sets the standard eased two grades and should find York to her liking judged on her prominent run style.

Eyecatcher

Real Dream (3.00 Newmarket)

The Ian Williams-trained gelding was flying quite high in Listed company last time but went down narrowly, having had to be switched for a run. He's 6lb well in after that and Tom Marquand takes over.

The Punt nap

Emperor Spirit (5.20 Newmarket)

Hasn't been seen since August, but his record after breaks of 300 days or more reads 12 (beaten a nose) and he returns on a good mark for his new trainer Michael Keady.

Speed figures

Regalian (1.50 Newmarket)

Has bettered his previous speed figure each time he has run and further improvement can be expected over this slightly longer trip.

Newmarket

Crepe Suzette (3.45 Ascot)

Shaped as if this trip would suit when second at Salisbury last time and has since worked well on the Al Bahathri.

Dark horse

Nighteyes (2.45 York)

Ran a blinder to be fourth in the Group 1 Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot  at 100-1. Had some good form as a two-year-old here at York and is interesting dropping back in grade.
