1.10pm Wetherby Tip: Palamon

The ITV coverage opens with the Position Payout at bet365 Handicap Chase, an eight-runner Class 3 over two miles and three and a half furlongs. Tanking Along has won the last two starts and is near the top of the betting, while Kahavari and Koukeo both look capable of going well off marks of 118 and 117.

Palamon is our selection for Dan Skelton and Harry Skelton. Palamon was beaten favourite last time, but has been placed in two of the last three starts, has won twice over this distance and has three wins from 17 runs on this ground. The Skelton yard is in top form with 16 winners from 77 runners in the last 14 days, and the tongue tie and blinkers stay on. The price was 2/1 this morning, and three of the tipsters we follow are on, including the Sheffield Star’s NAP.

Value pick: Geryville (each-way) is a three-time course-and-distance winner and has been placed in two of the last three starts. We make the fair price 12/1, so the 14/1 this morning is worth taking with three places paid.

1.25pm Ascot Tip: Dance And Glance (NAP)

Only five go to post for the Ascot Underwriting Novices’ Limited Handicap Chase over two miles and three furlongs. Jet To Vegas won last time and is the favourite at 2/1, napped by three of the tipsters we follow, while Glynn Brae carries top weight and The Gray Ghost was second last time.

Our Ascot NAP is Dance And Glance for Anthony Honeyball and Rex Dingle. Dance And Glance has already won at Ascot and over this distance, has four wins from eight runs on this ground and has been placed in two of the last three starts. Honeyball’s yard has three winners from eight runners in the last 14 days. Our model gives a 32% chance, which makes the fair price 9/4, so the 11/4 this morning looks a fair bet. The Racing and Football Outlook and racing-daily.com both nap the same horse, and Dance And Glance is in our Lucky 15 today.

1.45pm Wetherby Tip: Kateira (NAP)

The bet365 Montagu Mares’ Hurdle is a four-runner Listed race over two miles. Kateira and La Conquiere are the two who stand out on ratings, with Ooh Betty and St Irene completing the field.

Kateira is our Wetherby NAP. She is a course-and-distance winner, has won four times over this trip and has two wins from three runs on this ground. She is the top-rated mare in the race, Harry Skelton rides for his brother Dan, and our model makes her a 45% chance, the strongest of any of our selections on the ITV races. She is also the Racing Post’s NAP.

Value pick: St Irene has won three of her eight starts around this trip, has three wins from five runs on this ground and has been placed in two of her last three. We make her fair price 11/2, and she was 10/1 earlier this morning. With only four runners, check your bookmaker’s each-way terms before backing her that way.

2.00pm Ascot Tip: Vanderpoel

The Sodexo Live! Handicap Chase is a competitive 12-runner Class 2 over two miles and a furlong, worth £52,030 to the winner. Haas Boy is the 4/1 favourite and a course-and-distance winner, and Gabriel’s Getaway is the Racing Post’s NAP.

Vanderpoel is our tip for Ben Pauling and Callum Pritchard. Vanderpoel is a course-and-distance winner, has won four times over this trip, has a win from three runs on this ground and has been placed in two of the last three starts. This is a first run since a wind operation, and The Guardian makes it their NAP. The price was 9/2 this morning.

Value pick: Gore Point (each-way) has won seven of 17 starts around this trip, has four wins from 10 runs on this ground and won last time out at Newton Abbot. Anthony Honeyball’s yard is in form, and we make the fair price 8/1 against 12/1 this morning. BetUK are among the bookmakers paying four places on this race.

2.18pm Wetherby Tip: Take No Chances

The bet365 Hurdle, registered as the West Yorkshire Hurdle, is a four-runner Grade 2 over three miles. Strong Leader is the main danger at 6/4 for Olly Murphy and Sean Bowen, a course-and-distance winner and the top-rated runner on official ratings.

We’re siding with Take No Chances for the Skelton team. Take No Chances has won at Wetherby before, has two wins over this distance and has three wins from nine runs on this ground, and gets weight from Strong Leader. The yard’s 16 winners from 77 runners in the last fortnight adds to the case. Our model gives a 35% chance, and the price was 5/4 this morning.

2.33pm Ascot Tip: Viroflay

The Sodexo Live! Regal Encore Handicap Chase is a Premier Handicap over just under three miles, with 10 runners and £56,950 to the winner. Califet En Vol is the 11/4 favourite for Nicky Henderson and is napped by the Racing Post and the Weekender, while Queensbury Boy has two NAPs too.

Viroflay is our selection for Paul Nicholls, ridden by Lucas Murphy. Viroflay won last time out at Newton Abbot, has won over this distance before and has four wins from seven runs on this ground, a solid profile for a race like this despite carrying top weight. The price was 7/2 this morning and our figures give a 20% chance.

Value pick: Somespring Special (each-way) has seven wins from 18 runs on this ground, has won over this distance and has been placed in two of the last three starts. This is a first run since a wind operation. We make the fair price 11/1, and the price was 20/1 this morning, with three places paid.

2.55pm Wetherby Tip: Pic D’Orhy (Next Best)

The bet365 Charlie Hall Chase is the feature of the day, a six-runner Grade 2 over three miles with £56,950 to the winner. The Real Whacker is the popular pick with the tipsters, a course-and-distance winner napped by four of them, while Handstands is the Daily Mirror’s NAP and Twinjets and Hitman add Paul Nicholls firepower.

Pic D’Orhy is our Next Best at Wetherby and our tip for the big race. Pic D’Orhy is the top-rated runner in the field, has seven wins from 12 runs on this ground and has been placed in each of the last three starts. Harry Skelton rides for the in-form Dan Skelton yard, and both the Racing Post and the Yorkshire Post have it as their NAP. Our model gives a 36% chance, and the price was 11/8 this morning.

3.15pm Down Royal Tip: Heart Wood

ITV head to Northern Ireland for the BetVictor Champion Chase, run in memory of Envoi Allen. It’s a seven-runner Grade 1 over three miles on Yielding ground, worth €96,000 to the winner. Romeo Coolio, who won four in a row before being pulled up last time, shares favouritism for Gordon Elliott and Jack Kennedy, with Banbridge, Affordale Fury and Haiti Couleurs all rated close to the top of the field.

Heart Wood is our tip for Henry de Bromhead and Darragh O’Keeffe. Heart Wood has been placed in each of the last three starts, has won three of five starts around this trip and has two wins from eight runs on this ground. Heart Wood was beaten favourite last time, but is one of the highest-rated runners in the race and is our Next Best at Down Royal. The price was 11/4 this morning.

Value pick: Fleur In The Park won last time out at Gowran Park and has two wins from 11 runs on this ground. We make the fair price 9/2 against 6/1 this morning. BetUK are paying three places on this race, one more than usual for seven runners.

3.30pm Wetherby Tip: Filibustering

The Each Way Extra at bet365 Handicap Hurdle is a four-runner race over two miles. Race To Base is the 6/4 favourite after finishing second last time.

Filibustering is our pick for Harry Derham, with Harry Skelton riding. Filibustering carries top weight as the highest-rated runner, has won four times over this distance and has three wins from nine runs on this ground. With placings in two of the last three starts, our model gives a 33% chance, and the price was 13/8 this morning.

Value pick: Klitschko has four wins from 11 runs on this ground, has won four times over this trip and has been placed in two of the last three starts. We make the fair price 9/4 against 3/1 this morning, and Klitschko is in our Lucky 15.

3.43pm Ascot Tip: Trustintimes

The ITV coverage ends with the Lavazza Handicap Hurdle, a 16-runner Class 2 over two miles and £32,676 to the winner. Nap Hand is the Racing Post’s NAP, and Williethebuilder won last time and carries top weight.

Value pick: Hamlet’s Night (each-way) has won twice over this distance and is one of the higher-rated runners in the field. James Owen’s yard has nine winners from 50 runners in the last 14 days, and we make the fair price 16/1 against 18/1 this morning. bet365 are paying five places on this race.
