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

Handicappers' nap

Rolling Dylan (1.15 Ludlow)

Dropped in the handicap after a couple of ordinary runs on Cheltenham's cross country course but could go well on the pick of his form on more conventional tracks.

West Country

Bolving (2.15 Ludlow)

Frustrating of late but has the ability to land a race such as this with Bryan Carver in the saddle.
Andrew King

Eyecatcher

Rainyday Woman (3.45 Ludlow)

Out of a useful stayer, the five-year-old mare posted a fine debut effort when third and ought to sharpen up a lot for the run.

Ace Tipster

Marble Moon (1.15 Ludlow)

Dual course winner whose last two starts can be excused. Returns to this track in a winnable race for the grade.
Keith Melrose

Newmarket nap

Raining Fire (6.15 Kempton)

James Fanshawe's chestnut is improving and stayed on nicely when second at Wolverhampton last time. The son of Kitten's Joy has since moved well on Warren Hill.
David Milnes

Speed Figures

Reckless Endeavour (2.00 Newcastle)

Is on a lengthy losing run but his most recent efforts suggest he could end his drought.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Wasntexpectingthat (2.00 Newcastle)

Won last two over course and distance and navigated through traffic to strike last time, in which he posted a career-best RPR. Up 6lb for that effort but it may not be enough to contain him.

Dark horse

Aubusson (1.15 Ludlow)

Not seen since August but has course form of a win and a second. Stays the trip well and is potentially well handicapped on old form.
