Horse Racing Tips: Hooper to strike for Henderson at Stratford
It's a relatively quiet day's racing across the UK & Ireland with four fixtures taking place on Sunday, and three of those on offer are National Hunt meetings, so Jumps fans will get a treat today. The action begins at Sligo at 13:35 over the sticks, while there's alternative jumping action at Stratford and Perth, with Fairyhouse hosting the solitary Flat card. We preview the action here and pick out some of the most eye-catching best bets tipped up by our host of newspaper tipsters...

Nicky Henderson will head to Stratford this afternoon with the two-times course winner Hooper, who is currently a 4/1 chance for the 15:46 event, and the six-year-old has proven popular with our racing tipsters as three of them have napped the Henderson charge. Third at Uttoxeter last time out in May, Hooper will attempt to bounce back from that effort and the likes of Lambourn from the Racing Post and Paul Kealy from The Weekender are backing the Seven Barrows inmate to prevail today.
The most popular selection amongst the racing tipsters lines up at Fairyhouse at 16:15 and the Henry De Bromhead-trained Star Girls Aalmal is currently an 11/8 market leader for that event and a whopping seven tipsters have napped the three-year-old for the Group 3 Brownstown Stakes. Fourth in the Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot last time out, the daughter of Elzaam should find today's task a little easier and the likes of Andrew Bladen from the Wolverhampton Express & Star and Ian Gaughan from The Irish Herald are backing the De Bromhead raider to outclass her rivals.
Lucinda Russell's Maifalki is a red-hot 5/4 favourite for the 17:15 at Perth, and that charge is another that has proven popular with the tipsters, as three of them are backing the warm order to prevail,, while another couple of horses that have been napped by three people include the Ger Lyons-trained Affogato who will be another leading player in the aforementioned 16:15 at Fairyhouse, with the Danny Brooke-trained Fearless another napped three times, and that 5/2 shot runs in the 16:05 at Perth.

Flying high at the top of the naps table is Expert Eye from On The Nose, who has a stunning profit of £51.05 and the red-hot tipster heads to Fairyhouse's 16:50 event for the best bet of the day. Five runners will go to post for the 1m 4f contest and Expert Eye is backing the Mick Halford-trained Rihani, who is still a maiden but has shown glimpses of ability, and at 15/8 has a great chance of finally tasting a first win.
Melissa Jones from the Mirror Online is in hot pursuit of the long-time leader and she has a profit of £36.68, but she won't be able to eat into the lead too much today as she has put up the 8/11 favourite Of Corse I Can as her best bet of the day, and that raider looks the one they all have to beat in the 16:56 at Stratford.
Punters looking for some bigger prices could well side with the Michael Scudamore-trained Karlie, who runs in the 16:21 at Stratford and is currently a 16/1 chance for that event, and is the best bet of Rory Delargy from The Irish Field, while another couple of horses napped at double-figured odds include Icee B M A, who is a 16/1 chance for the 16:30 at Sligo and 16/1 player The Riverrunsdeep, who runs in the 15:05 at Fairyhouse.
