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…

14:25 – Newmarket – Lake Forest – Morning Star

No Nay Never half-brother to seven winners and cost 130,000gns as a yearling; well on top at the finish in Haydock novice event (6f, good to firm) on debut four weeks ago; LAKE FOREST brings lots of potential to this higher level and looks interesting.

15:25 – Carlisle – Slainte Mhath – The North

SLAINTE MHATH is a progressive sprinter when there’s give in the ground and turned in best effort to win at Hamilton last week (2lb well in, despite penalty), after which her trainer confirmed the key to her is soft ground; big chance if the ground turns in her favour.

17:55 – Epsom – Alhambra Palace – Cambridge Evening New

Down the field in his three qualifying runs but he was sent off a warm favourite for his handicap debut at Leicester two weeks ago and showed improvement, still looking green but keeping on well down the middle of the track to finish a half-length fourth (less than a length seperated the first six home); ALHAMBRA PALACE is 1lb higher today but stepping up in distance could prompt further progress.

19:25 – Leopardstown – Lord Vader – On The Nose

Solid efforts in handicaps last twice; LORD VADER was no match for Alanya in the Ladies Derby at the Curragh; can improve here and odds suggest good each-way value.
