Friday's free racing tips: six horses to consider putting in your multiple bets
Friday's best bets ranked in order of confidence by our top tipsters
Handicappers' nap
Dragon Bones(3.05 Cheltenham)
Unbeaten in four completed starts over obstacles last season and rates the clear pick on hurdle figures.

Ace tipster
Guard Your Dreams (4.15 Cheltenham)
Competed in some of the hottest handicaps of last season and caught the eye on a couple of occasions, most notably when flying home for sixth in the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury and taking seventh in the Coral Cup here. He wound up with a good third to My Drogo in a Grade 1 at Aintree and can outclass these rivals off top weight.
Graeme Rodway
Eyecatcher
Go Dante (5.25 Cheltenham)
Well backed and skipped clear when successful on his debut in a Wincanton bumper in March and fancied to build on that promise here on his hurdles debut.
Dave Randall

Speed figures
Fresh (2.40 Doncaster)
Has performed really well in some hot handicaps this season and richly deserves to take the lion's share of today's prize.
Dave Edwards
West Country
Marquis Of Carabas (4.50 Cheltenham)
Coming off a huge break but looks very well handicapped and has good form at the track and on similar ground. Trainer won this in 2016 and 2019 and booking of Derek O'Connor is another boost.
James Stevens
Dark horse
Saint Sonnet (4.15 Cheltenham)
Ran well for a long way in last season's Paddy Power Gold Cup when well fancied. Reverted to hurdles afterwards and finished the season with a respectable third at Ayr. Still only a six-year-old, time is on his side and it would be a surprise if he's not better than his current mark of 139.
