Friday’s Best Tips

MY NAP NEEDS A WINNER! Racing on Friday from Gowran Park, Fontwell, Hexham, Ascot, Newcastle and Dundalk. Daily Double pays 5/1!

NAP – My best tip of the day

Newcastle 7.45 Melfet (5/4)

Well bred colt who still looked a little rough around the edges before powering clear impressively to win at Kempton on reappearance a fortnight ago; can improve again and looks one to keep firmly on side.

I’m looking forward to seeing MELFET out again following that impressive Kempton romp. That was his first start for 275 days and despite still showing signs of inexperience he ran on strongly to win by 5 lengths. His debut run has worked out notably well since producing 5 winners from just 8 runs and he is clearly a nice prospect in the making. That visual impression last time was backed up by the clock and with further improvement to come he should be able to follow up here. Poker Face made a bright start winning on debut at Pontefract but strictly on the clock he has ground to make up with the favourite. Alnilam also clearly has a nice future but already sports cheekpieces.

NAP

Newcastle 7.45 Melfet (5/4)

Ascot 3.45 Secret State (7/4)

Progressive colt who made it four in a row again defying a big weight at Glorious Goodwood; excellent second in the Great Voltigeur at York last month; wind op since and could still do better again.

Stepping up in trip again SECRET STATE should be hard to beat here. He ran well to finish second to an improving Deauville Legend at York and has undergone wind surgery since. He should have more to come after just 6 starts and looks the one to beat in this field. Giavellotto has to be respected as he won nicely at Newmarket and then bumped into Eldar Eldarov and New London in the St Leger. He is on the upgrade like the selection and I expect them to battle it out. If you wanted a saver I’d say back the reverse forecast. Lionel was a horse I had high hopes for earlier in the season but things haven’t panned out for him and he is hard to back for this despite switching to John and Thady Gosden.
