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…
13:50 York – Shagraan (Racing Post)
There are pace influences all across the track so the high numbers may not prove as disadvantaged as sometimes can be the case on a straight track. That will be a tonic to supporters of Pilgrim, Pocklington and Bergerac, each of whom has something to recommend them. It would seem more prudent to side with those drawn low to middle, though, and the three to appeal most are the flourishing Jordan Electrics, Jm Jungle and SHAGRAAN (NAP). Jm Jungle ran well from a modest draw in this race last year, and has been bubbling away as though a big run is imminent, but Shagraan got his act together at Goodwood and can make light of his 5lb rise. He’s had only ten runs and a strong race at this trip could prompt another jolt of improvement.
15:00 York – King’s Gambit (The Scotsman)
Los Angeles and KING’S GAMBIT have been notably progressive, while Deira Mile produced a big career best in the Derby last time. They may be the principals, but Illinois and Space Legend need respect, and slight preference is for King’s Gambit given the 5lb he receives from Irish Derby winner Los Angeles, who’s second choice. A strong finish at Royal Ascot makes this first attempt at 1m 4f appealing.
17:00 Carlisle – Rebecca’s Girl (Scottish Sun)
Jalaybee is interesting on his first run for a new yard as his 2yo best, notably a close second to the now 109-rated Givemethebeatboys, is well in advance of anything his rivals have achieved. The betting should be revealing on his stable debut. Mambha and Strike Rate are possibles but REBECCA’S GIRL is tentatively preferred after her promising stable debut last week.
17:30 Carlisle – Bowman (Spotlight)
Last year’s winner Redarna seems sure to be on the premises again along with C&D scorer JKR Cobbler, while Carnival Zain and Oso Rapido (second choice) are both weighted to have a say too. But BOWMAN is thriving for his current yard and can bag a second success on the back of an excellent third at York last time out.
