Horse Racing Tips: Check out Saturday's best bets
Following a sensational Cheltenham Festival, we focus our attentions on Saturday's racing and the feature of the day will be the Midlands Grand National at Uttoxeter, while there's alternative racing at Fontwell, Newcastle, Thurles, Kempton and Wolverhampton. We preview Saturday's racing and pick out some of the most popular bets from a host of racing tipsters...
Proving hugely popular among our racing tipsters on Saturday is the Jonjo O'Neill-trained Time To Get Up, who is bidding to retain his Midlands Grand National crown at Uttoxeter at 15:35, and the Jackdaws Castle inmate has be napped by a staggering 11 tipsters for the marathon contest at the Staffordshire track. A fine winner of the race 12 months ago, the O'Neill raider is not the only horse napped in the race, as both Supreme Escape and Captain Drake are another brace of runners napped for the event.
Harry Fry will aim to kick on from his Cheltenham Festival success a few days ago and he saddles Boothill in the 15:00 at Uttoxeter, and that contender has proven popular as well as three tipsters have selected that 4/1 shot as their nap of the day, while the Tom Lacey-trained Flashing Glance is a 22/1 chance for the 14:40 at Kempton and is another eye-catching nap for Postdata of the Racing Post.
Time To Get Up
Current naps table leader Farringdon has a clear lead at the top with a fine profit of £48.59 and that tipster heads to Wolverhampton this evening for the best bet of the day and has sided with 8/1 chance Mythical Madness in the 20:00 contest, while the second placed Steve Mullington has picked out 13/8 shot Deeper Blue, who runs in the 13;35 at Fontwell Park.
The form tipster currently is Jason Heavey of The Star, as he napped back-to-back winners, and will be aiming to make it three on the bounce on Saturday and he heads to Uttoxeter for his best bet of the day. Heavey has selected the Nigel Twiston-Davies-trained Beauport in the 15:00 race, and the 100/30 chance will be able to finally get his head in front this season, as he has racked up a trio of second placed finishes in his last three races.
