Todays NAP of The Day

Ronald Fletcher Baker Novice Stakes - Windsor

Sharp Move

J: Tom Marquand T: WIlliam Haggas
Race Winner
5/4

Reason for Tip

This impeccably bred colt, by champion sire Frankel out of a Bated Breath mare, makes a highly anticipated return tomorrow in the Ronald Fletcher Baker Novice Stakes. He showed immense promise on his second start in November, bolting up to win a Newcastle maiden by an impressive seven lengths. Although he returns from a 221 day absence tomorrow, he represents the elite yard of William Haggas, which is currently operating at a stellar 21% strike rate. With world class jockey Tom Marquand booked to ride, connections clearly expect a bold showing. He has to carry a penalty for his previous victory, but he possesses clear star quality and remains the standout class horse in this nine runner Class 3 field. Sharp Move is a very exciting prospect who looks poised to resume his progress with a dominant performance over this trip.

⭐ NAP of the Day

Carnival Queen

4.40 Wolverhampton – 11/10
Trainer: Charlie Appleby
Jockey: Billy Loughnane

Carnival Queen is a beautifully bred filly who cost 350,000gns and shaped with plenty of promise on debut here back in October. She was noticeably green that day, slowly away and unsettled, but that effort is easily forgiven given the profile of this Appleby runner.

It’s very common for horses from this yard to take a significant step forward on their second start, and with the greenness already out of the way, she looks primed to improve markedly. The trip remains the same, conditions are ideal, and Billy Loughnane retains the ride — a jockey who boasts an excellent strike-rate at this venue.

When Loughnane rides for the Appleby yard, they have combined to win 43% of races over the last two seasons, which is a huge statistic in this context. Carnival Queen looks to hold a clear class edge over today’s rivals and is taken to justify favouritism.

Showcasing Star

J: Pat Cosgrave T: Charlie Johnston
Race Winner
16/1

Reason for Tip

This unexposed 3yo gelding, by Showcasing, is a fascinating contender as he makes his handicap debut in the Class 4 Try Unibet’s New Smartview Racecards Handicap. He put together a highly consistent sequence in the spring, finishing a close second on all three of his All-Weather starts at Newcastle and Wolverhampton. You can safely draw a line through his latest run on soft turf at Chester, as the testing ground was clearly against him. Reverting to his preferred All-Weather surface tomorrow, he should find conditions much more to his liking. Running off an opening mark of 77, he remains completely unexposed on polytrack and represents the powerhouse stable of Charlie Johnston. With veteran jockey Pat Cosgrave in the saddle, Showcasing Star has excellent prospects of bouncing back to form and looks ready to make a major impact on his handicap debut at a big price too.

🎯 Dark Horse

Jack The Boss

1.38 Hereford – 16/1
Trainer: Donald McCain Jnr
Jockey: Theo Gillard

This is a wide-open handicap with several bookmakers paying five places, and Jack The Boss looks overpriced at 16/1. A winner on debut in a junior hurdle at Wetherby, he showed ability early in his career and is far better than recent form suggests.

He refused on seasonal debut but returned lto at Sedgefield where he clearly needed the run. That effort can be forgiven, and he should strip much fitter today making his handicap debut off a workable mark. The McCain yard are ticking along nicely, and Theo Gillard is a strong booking in races of this nature.

With proven ability and expected improvement, Jack The Boss could easily outrun his odds and looks a solid each-way contender at a big price.

Alfred Wincham

J: A Mullen T: P Neville
Race Winner
2/1

Reason for Tip

This beautifully bred 4yo gelding, by legendary sire Dubawi out of a Manduro mare, makes an intriguing Flat racing debut tomorrow. He started his career in style back in May, comfortably winning his sole National Hunt Flat race at Down Royal by five and a half lengths under Anthony McCann. Following that impressive debut, he was sold for 80,000gns and moved to the capable hands of trainer Patrick Neville. Tomorrow, he tackles the Danny O’Neill Birthday ‘Confined’ Maiden Stakes over a staying distance of one mile and four furlongs. In a small five-runner field, his class and proven stamina are major assets. Ridden by Andrew Mullen, Alfred Wincham looks to have a highly promising future on the Flat and stands out as a strong contender to make it two wins from two career starts in what appears to be a very winnable Class 3 contest.

Slack Alice

J: S Bowen T: M Bowen
Race Winner
2/1

Reason for Tip

This progressive mare looks to continue her upward trajectory in the Class 5 Racing TV Profits Returned To Racing Novices’ Handicap Hurdle. After putting together a series of solid placed efforts, including a promising third at Ludlow, she made a decisive breakthrough last time out at Market Rasen on June 12. Ridden by Sean Bowen, she Relished the step up in trip to comfortably secure her maiden victory by six and a half lengths. Although she has to contend with a 7lb rise in weights tomorrow, she remains highly progressive and looks more than capable of handling the extra demand. Crucially, the trainer-jockey partnership of Mickey and Sean Bowen is in exceptional form, boasts a 40% strike rate together over the last fortnight. Back on favorable good ground, Slack Alice is strongly fancied to deliver another win.

Preventapest Handicap - Ffos Las

Port Erin

J: Billy Loughnane T: A W Carroll
Race Winner
13/2

Reason for Tip

This experienced 6yo gelding, a son of Le Havre, looks to bounce back in the Class 5 Preventapest Handicap over a mile. While he has struggled to find his best form in his two starts this season at Goodwood and Nottingham, he was a highly prolific performer last year, racking up three victories over this distance at Sandown, Haydock, and Kempton. Port Erin is a previous winner at Ffos Las and is now dropped back down to a very attractive mark. A key positive for his prospects tomorrow is the eye-catching booking of the exceptionally talented jockey Billy Loughnane by trainer Tony Carroll. If allowed to dictate the pace from the front as he has done so successfully in the past, Port Erin possesses the class and course familiarity to capitalise on this lower grade and secure a welcome return to the winner’s enclosure.

Unibet More Extra Place Races Fillies' Handicap - Kempton

Dream Illusion

J: Dylan Hogan T: M Herrington
Race Winner
5/1

Reason for Tip

This in-form filly, by Oasis Dream, represents excellent value in the Class 5 Unibet More Extra Place Races Fillies’ Handicap. She has enjoyed a highly productive 2026 campaign, securing three wins on the All-Weather, including two over a mile at Southwell. She proved her versatility last time out on June 4 by running a superb second of ten over seven furlongs on Good to Firm turf at Wetherby, only beaten by a neck. Although she faces a challenging widest draw in stall 14 on her Polytrack debut tomorrow, her current sharp form and proven ability at this level make her a serious threat. Back on an artificial surface under jockey Dylan Hogan, who knows her well, Michael Herrington’s filly has all the right credentials to overcome the draw and deliver a highly competitive and positive performance in this contest.

🍀 Lucky 15 Tips Today

Cobblers Boy

12.55 Haydock – 9/4
Trainer: Dan Skelton
Jockey: Tristan Durrell

Cobblers Boy remains very unexposed with just three career starts and form figures of 821. He made all to win at Warwick lto and looks the type to progress again. Although he returns from a break, his runs are usually spaced and he has shown he goes well fresh.

The Skelton yard know how to have them ready, conditions look ideal, and Tristan Durrell continues to impress in the saddle. A major threat in this field.

Bad

1.50 Ascot – 4/1
Trainer: Ben Pauling
Jockey: Ben Jones

Bad has been a model of consistency, winning twice at Kempton before running a huge race in the Paddy Power Gold Cup lto at Cheltenham. He was only beaten by the hill that day and now drops back slightly in trip to a more suitable distance.

He enjoys Ascot, jumps well, often makes the running, and represents a yard in good form. Ben Jones retains the ride and everything points to another big performance.

Mondo Man

3.35 Ascot – 11/4
Trainer: Gary & Josh Moore
Jockey: Caoilin Quinn

Mondo Man has yet to win over hurdles, but his ability is undeniable. He was only beaten by a smart rival on seasonal return at Lingfield and should strip fitter for that run.

Previously competing in Grade 1 and Grade 2 company, he now finds himself in a very winnable contest. He’s already run well at Ascot and today’s conditions look ideal. Big chance.

Maywedance

8.15 Wolverhampton – 5/1
Trainer: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies
Jockey: Hector Crouch

Maywedance finally got her head in front lto at Kempton and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see her kick on now confidence is gained. This is a weaker race and she has a top jockey booking in Hector Crouch, who has an excellent record at Wolverhampton.

Expected to race prominently again and has every chance of following up.
