Racing Tips Today - Friday 20th February 2026
Friday’s cards give us a proper spread across the UK and Ireland, with jumps racing at Ffos Las (13:52), Warwick (14:05) and Exeter (14:14), plus evening all-weather action at Dundalk and Southwell, which is broadcast on ITV. The highlight is Constitution Hill's flat debut, which has brought more eyes than ever to the AW track.
Racing tips today centres on the NAPs leaderboard first, then the big newspaper names, before we round things off with the two stories punters are talking about heading into the weekend.

Racing News Round-Up
