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

Dandy Khan

2.07 Lingfield – 15/8
Trainer: J R Boyle
Jockey: Billy Loughnane

Dandy Khan made a slow start to her career but she’s really turned a corner now, landing a quickfire Lingfield doubleand showing she’s only just beginning to progress. Crucially, she escapes a penalty for the win last time out, leaving her looking extremely well-treated for another winnable contest.

She’s got the plum inside draw (stall 1), represents a yard in red-hot form, and has the services of Billy Loughnane — who rides Lingfield better than most and has been excellent tactically around here. The race looks no stronger than her previous two assignments and the hat-trick is very much on for this improving filly.

Why it’s the NAP:
Form, draw, trainer form, track suitability and a generous mark. Everything lines up.

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

Palace Boy

5.30 Wolverhampton – 14/1
Trainer: F Brennan
Jockey: Oscar Palmer (7lb claim)

Palace Boy hasn’t been seen since May 2024, which explains the big price — but he’s 2-from-2 at Wolverhampton, and crucially was competing in higher-class company on his last few starts. Today he drops into a much easier race and makes his debut for a new yard.

The 7lb claim of Oscar Palmer is a huge help, he’s drawn perfectly in stall 2, and this race isn’t the strongest on paper. If he’s anywhere near race-fit, Palace Boy has genuine winning claims at a big price — a proper Dark Horse selection.

Why he’s the Dark Horse:
Course record, class drop, big jockey claim and a perfect draw. Backable at double-figures.

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

1️⃣ Sergeant Pep – 1.07 Lingfield – 4/1

T: C G Cox | J: Rossa Ryan
Ran well on seasonal debut in Class 3 company and now drops into a weaker race off a handy mark. Back on the AW, back to his ideal trip and partnered by Rossa Ryan. A big run looks likely.


2️⃣ Dunnet Head – 1.45 Musselburgh – 5/1

T: L Russell & M Scudamore | J: P W Wadge
Ignore the form figures — he’s much better than that. Returns to fences, which is a big positive, and is extremely well-treated on old ability. Jockey is in great form and this race is very winnable.


3️⃣ Crossbeau – 3.25 Fontwell – 9/4

T: Tim Vaughan | J: Sean Bowen
Won nicely on return after 500+ days off and should improve fitness-wise. The 6lb rise is manageable and this is slightly easier than last time. Bowen booked — major chance.


4️⃣ Gustav Graves – 8.00 Wolverhampton – 9/2

T: D Shaw | J: Joanna Mason
A Wolverhampton specialist who’s been in the frame in his last three. Only beaten a short head last time and remains on a workable mark. Expect him to stalk and pounce late. Big chance.
