ITV Racing tips: one key runner from each of the eight races on ITV on Saturday

1.45 Kempton
Ladbrokes Magnolia Stakes, Listed, 1m2f

Global Giant returns to shallower waters after finishing down the field in the $20 million Saudi Cup last month for John and Thady Gosden and he renews rivalry with the William Haggas-trained Faylaq, who he beat in the Listed Steventon Stakes last season.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Global Giant

Didn't take to dirt in Saudi latest but smart and consistent overall; the one to beat


The Punt Daily: Tom Collins' free horse racing tips on Saturday afternoon


Unibet Doncaster Mile, Listed, 1m

Trainer Roger Varian bids for his third successive victory in this with Father Of Jazz, but the market is headed by Montatham, who runs in the colours of the late Hamdan Al Maktoum for Haggas, and Bounce The Blues, a two-time winner when trained in Ireland by John Feane.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Montatham

Big improver last year and well worth a second go in Listed company

Ladbrokes Rosebery Handicap, 1m3f

The race features a fascinating clash between Al Zaraqaan, unbeaten in three starts in 2020, and Almighwar, who bids to bounce back after finishing fourth at the track on his most recent start. Dark Pine arrives in good form for David Loughnane and Stevie Donohoe.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Al Zaraqaan

Won all starts since debut, the latest 1m4f Lingfield handicap in December; leading claims


Graeme Rodway's banker at Doncaster on Saturday


Unibet Spring Mile, 1m

The shortest-priced winner of this handicap in the last ten years was Petrus, who struck at 7-1 last season for trainer Brian Meehan. The field is typically competitive this year and the market is headed by Acquitted, who makes his first start of the season for Hugo Palmer.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Anythingtoday

Best form has come over 1m2f plus but this trip is worth a go and he's on a handy mark

BetVictor Novice Handicap Hurdle, 2m3f

Chris Gordon has equalled his best seasonal tally of 30 winners and has a good chance of extending his record with Mount Windsor, who bids for a fifth victory in a row. His chief danger could be One True King, who finished third at Ascot on his most recent start.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: One True King

Back in form on latest outing and may yet resume the progress he made in late 2020

Unibet Lincoln (Heritage Handicap), 1m

The Lincoln signals the beginning of the Flat turf season and it has attracted a suitably strong line-up, including Haqeeqy, who will be partnered by 7lb claimer Benoit de la Sayette, and Eastern World, winner of a Meydan handicap last time for trainer Charlie Appleby.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Eastern World

Scored comfortably at Meydan six weeks ago; trainer won this race in 2016 and 2019


Saturday's free racing tips: six horses to consider for your multiple bets


EBF BetVictor 'National Hunt' Novices' Mares' Hurdle, Grade 2

Cheveley Park enjoyed a number of high-profile winners at the Cheltenham Festival and have a great chance to enjoy more Graded success with Rose Of Arcadia, trained by Colin Tizzard. The biggest danger could be Misty Whisky, a two-time winner this season.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Hunny Moon

Confidence-boosting Wetherby win last time and might be better handicapped than some

3.45 Doncaster
Unibet Cammidge Trophy, Listed, 6f

Brando was narrowly denied his first British Group 1 when beaten a nose in the Champions Sprint on his penultimate start and is the oldest in the field for this Listed contest. Also prominent in the betting is Just Frank, a model of consistency for Les Eyre last year.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Mr Lupton

Not at this very best last season but still showed some strong form, and goes well fresh
