Lucky 15 Tips today

15:45 Chester – City Streak
17:18 Clonmel – Pont Audemer

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.

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) today. The four you’ll see below are the selections of some of the top-performing tipsters in the Table. Let’s get to the picks…

Chester-Racecourse

14:40 Chester – Alder (Luke Tucker)

ALDER has a Dante, Derby and King Edward VII entry. Third of five in Group 2 at Leopardstown (1m, soft) on final 2yo start. Resumed with further improvement against useful sorts in a conditions event at Cork (1m2f, good to yielding) three weeks ago, having to be switched just inside the final 2f before sealing the issue in tidy style. The form pick and he looks promising.

15:15 Chester – Changingoftheguard (Tipman)

CHANGINGOFTHEGUARD is a front-runner who easily made all in Chester Vase (1m4f, soft) 12 months ago. Fifth of 17 in the Derby at Epsom (good; sole run in cheekpieces) next time and scraped home in front when 11-10 in the Group 2 King Edward VII at Royal Ascot (good to form) 13 days later. Absent since (reportedly due to hairline fracture) but a leading contender if resuming in good form.

15:45 Chester – City Streak (Robin Goodfellow)

CITY STREAK advanced his RPR with every start last year, including when runner-up in a C&D handicap on penultimate outing (good to soft). Made a solid return on AW three weeks ago and looks one of today’s principals.

17:18 Clonmel – Pont Audemer (The Irish Sun)

PONT AUDEMER is up 16lb after landing a gamble in a handicap hurdle at Limerick in January. Has run at least as well in two handicap starts since and up another 2lb for finishing third in a Navan handicap hurdle in March. Handicapper not making it easy but unlikely to be far away once more.
