Racing Tips Today - 20th March 2026

Friday’s racing tips come from a varied five-track spread, with Newbury and Musselburgh providing the jumps action while Lingfield, Wolverhampton and Dundalk keep the all-weather side ticking over into the evening. There is plenty for punters to get stuck into, from competitive handicaps at Newbury to ITV4’s Friday Night Live card at Wolves, and the NAPs table has thrown up a lively mix of short-priced confidence and a couple of bigger-priced swings.

Today’s NAPs Table Top 3

The NAPs competition has a familiar feel at the top today, with Newbury dominating the strongest fancies and the leading three tipsters all siding with runners from the Berkshire card. Paul Nicholls’ Captain Bellamy heads the table leaders’ selections, while Helnwein has attracted support from several respected judges in the 3:00. Times Are Green is the outlier in the top three, but that bigger price makes him the interesting one if you want a swing at some value rather than just following the obvious market principals.

Templegate & Other Big Name NAPs

The newspaper names are split across Newbury and Musselburgh today, and there is a decent bit of overlap in the stronger races. Templegate goes with an improving chaser at Newbury, Newsboy sides with a well-fancied Musselburgh hurdler, and Robin Goodfellow lands on one of the more obvious Newbury contenders. If you like to look for consensus before placing your bets, Helnwein and Dearkeithandkaty are the pair that stand out most from the major names.
