Each and every day of the racing year we bring you a bumper NAPs table to give you the inside scoop on all the plays you’ll need that day.
WELCOME TO PADDY POWER NEWS!
Don’t know what a NAPs table is? We’ll tell you! It’s an independently run competition involving the cream of the British and Irish racing press whose positions in the table are based on their profits to Level Stakes. And just like all sports competitions worldwide, those doing best are towards the top of the table.
So, we decided to put that golden guide to the test and use it to steer you towards what could be a savvy Lucky 15 (4 horses, 15 bets). The four you’ll see below are the selections of some of the top-performing tipsters in the table. Let’s get to the bets.
15:20 Uttoxeter – Farouk De Cheneau (Racing Post, Lambourn)
FAROUK DE CHENEAU has just six career starts. Won final French outing in July 2019 and, on second start back from a long absence, shaped much better when runner-up at Wincanton in April.
15:40 Ascot – Bay Bridge (Sheffield Star, Fortunatus)
BAY BRIDGE went 4-4 last year during highly progressive 3yo campaign, culminating in Newmarket Listed win, and his form went to the next level on last month’s return when bolting up in the Group 3 Brigadier Gerard at Sandown (1m2f, good). On that latest evidence he should be winning a Group 1 sooner rather than later and this exciting 4yo holds strong claims.
16:20 Ascot – Bashikirova (Daily Record, Garry Owen
BASHKIROVA has come a long way in a short space of time, winning four of her six races. Further improvement when gaining decisive success in Group 3 Princess Elizabeth Stakes at Epsom (8.5f, good) 11 days ago, leading inside the final 1f. Versatile in terms of the ground and more progress required up further in grade but that’s not out of the question.
17:00 Ascot – Legend Of Dubai (On The Nose, Expert Eye)
Lightly raced and well-bred colt, LEGEND OF DUBAI got off the mark in 1m4f novice event at Ffos Las last summer (sole 3yo start) then coped very well with the drop back to 1m in Newmarket handicap (good) on reappearance, dashing clear for an impressive win. Should improve further and handle an 11lb rise and is greatly respected.
