Todays NAP of the Day

16 Apr 16:10 - Newmarket

Newmarket

Hassaleh

J: William Buick T: Charlie Appleby
Race Winner
5/4

Reason for Tip

Three year old Hassaleh is a very nicely bred Night Of Thunder filly from the Appleby yard who is capable of improving greatly from the rather green debut run at Windsor. Not seen since that run in June last year and make course debut at Newmarket today and there has already been market confidence from 11/8 into 5/4. Well drawn in stall 3, open to plenty of further progression and is one of the stand out horses in this field today. Represents a top yard and has a fantastic jockey aboard in William Buick. Yard have a fantastic record here and are also running at a 45% strikerate in the last two weeks. Buick and Appleby have a 30% win rate when pairing at this track. Likely winner today.

⭐ NAP of the Day

Crown The Future

7.00 Wolverhampton | 7/4
T: Jack Morland | J: Neil Callan

Lightly raced three-year-old Crown The Future sets a solid standard in the 7.00 at Wolverhampton and looks a standout betting proposition.

He made a strong impression on handicap debut here in November, winning with ease and plenty in hand. A disappointing effort at Newcastle followed when stepped up in trip, but that run came too soon after his win and over a distance that didn’t play to his strengths.

The return to Wolverhampton, combined with a drop back in trip, looks ideal. This is not a strongly contested race and the booking of Neil Callan, who partnered him to victory previously, is another positive.

Why it’s the NAP:
✔ Proven at the track
✔ Still improving
✔ Conditions firmly in his favour

Verdict: Looks the most likely winner on the card.

Asmeralda

J: Oisin Murphy T: J & T Gosden
Race Winner
10/1

Reason for Tip

Asmeralda is one of the most unexposed horses in this race with only one run so far. That debut was at Kempton before Christmas and won nicely. Beautifully bred Night of Thunder filly who is potentially a very nice horse in the making. Will be fine off the break and both trip and ground are suitable. Well drawn in stall 4 and represents a yard who’ve won this six times including last year. Oisin Murphy booking is notable and he has a good record for the Gosdens. This filly has a big chance today and a rather nice price too. Should be heavily involved and certainly not written out of winning this.

Tara Iti

J: Oscar Palmer T: F Brennan
Race Winner
18/1

Reason for Tip

Eight year old Tara Iti was a smart horse a couple of years ago and notched up no less than eight wins over hurdles for the Moore and Owen yards but has been off the boil for a little while and now resides with the Brennan yard and has yet to make an impact for new yard. However, as a result Tara Iti is very well handicapped and well below highest winning mark and the mark has become a little hard to ignore. Can act over this trip and the ground is in her favour. This really is a wide open race and the change of track to Hereford may be enough to spark a little revival. Good apprentice aboard in Oscar Palmer who has notched multiple wins lately and with a bit of fortune Tara Iti looks capable of placing off this mark at a big price and a win would be a bonus.

🎯 Dark Horse

Rainbow Sign

3.10 Lingfield | 14/1
T: Mark Pattinson | J: Pat Cosgrave

At double-figure odds, Rainbow Sign makes plenty of appeal in the 3.10 at Lingfield.

The eight-year-old enjoyed a productive spell last season, highlighted by a win at Brighton followed by a close second, and he remains on a very workable mark based on that form. Two below-par efforts since can be forgiven and he now drops into classified company, which represents a significant ease in grade.

With an experienced jockey in Pat Cosgrave booked and a race lacking depth, it would be no surprise to see Rainbow Sign bounce back to something close to his best.

Why he’s interesting:
✔ Class drop
✔ Well handicapped
✔ Big odds in a weak race

Verdict: Capable of outrunning his price and hitting the frame — or better.

Different Opinions

J: Pierre-Louis Jamin T: K R Burke
Race Winner
9/2

Reason for Tip

Hannon trained horse at the head of the market but looks a little vulnerable and so a chance is taken on Burke trained three year old Different Opinions. Ran well on debut before regressing slightly on second start lto at Southwell. However, on pedigree this drop in trip is a big positive and looks a likely improver today. Well drawn in stall 4 and the Burke yard have a very strong record at this course, particularly with their three year olds. Pierre-Louis retains the ride and he is riding well at the moment along with having a good record for this yard at this course. Lots of positives today and Different Opinions looks to have a real chance here at a nice price.

Hawk Mountain

J: Ryan Moore T: A P O'Brien
Race Winner
7/2

Reason for Tip

Craven Stakes time at Newmarket and Hark Mountain is an impressive Ballydoyle colt who’s not really put a foot wrong last year as a two year old. Form of 5111 including the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster and very much the form pick for this race. Does need to answer the fresh question mark but the yard have a good record and know how to prime horses returning from a break. Trip should still be fine as a three year old and whilst best form thus far has been on testing ground, unexposed on good and on pedigree doesn’t look a negative. Well drawn, very much in form and progressive and represents a major yard with a world class jockey aboard in Ryan Moore. Leading player and looks to have an excellent chance.

Sailor Batt

J: Connor Beasley T: T D Barron
Race Winner
5/1

Reason for Tip

Three year old Sailor Batt might be a maiden still after 9 runs but has gone close on a number of occasions and looks primed for a big run on return to turf today. Form this year is 253 and does act on grass so no reason he won’t be heavily involved again today. On a very workable mark and both ground and trip are ideally suited. This is not a strong race and won’t take a great deal of winning. Yard probably overdue a winner and have booked an inform jockey in Connor Beasley. Sailor Batt is unlikely to be far away here and looks capable of taking this.

Sherborne

J: Freddie Gingell T: J Tizzard
Race Winner
7/4

Reason for Tip

Hattrick seeking Sherborne comes into today in very good form. Has looked better and better over fences of late and easily defied a 7lb rise to win again in fine style lto at Ascot. Has gone up another 8lb but in the form this 10yo is in, hard to discount frankly. Ideal trip on perfect ground and Sherborne looks set to produce another big run. This race is a little warmer than recent ones but returns to a course he’s ran well at previously and for a trainer who have a very good record here. In form and talented jockey aboard in Freddie Gingell who has won more than a third of his rides in the last two weeks and also boasts a 30% strikerate at this track. Yes the mark has gone up again, but the hattrick is very much on and Sherborne is taken to get the job done again.

🍀 Lucky 15 Tips Today

🐎 Lightonthewing

1.00 Hereford | 9/2
Veteran chaser who showed he retains plenty of ability when winning at Wincanton last time. A 7lb rise is a concern but he has won off higher marks in the past and conditions are ideal.


🐎 Jackson Street

2.40 Lingfield | 3/1
Things clicked when winning over C&D last time and he’s only 3lb higher today. Well drawn in stall 2 and this looks a weaker race than many he’s contested recently.


🐎 Bollin Thou

3.00 Hereford | 11/4
Low-mileage eight-year-old who won impressively at Uttoxeter on New Year’s Eve. Remains on the upgrade and the booking of Sean Bowen is a major positive.


🐎 All Moonshine

6.00 Wolverhampton | 2/1
Unexposed youngster from the Balding yard who has improved sharply with racing. Won well last time and further progression looks likely despite conceding weight all round.
