Today's Horse Racing NAPs
Our top tipsters return with their best bets for Saturday's racing - Alan Kelly, bringing nearly five decades of tipping expertise, and Charlie McCann, former talkSPORT racing correspondent with deep industry insight, reveal their horse racing nap for today.
Alan Kelly's Horse Racing Nap - Saturday, July 19th
Eve Johnson Houghton's HAVANA HURRICANE, winner of the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot, looks the one to beat in the £250k Super Sprint, especially off a mark of 100 and carrying just 8st 13lb.
Horse: Havana Hurricane
Trainer: Eve Johnson Houghton
Race: 3:30pm Newbury
Charlie McCann's Horse Racing Nap - Saturday, July 19th
AL RIFFA shaped well in first-time blinkers when second to Rebel's Romance in the Group 2 Hardwicke at Royal Ascot, and now steps up to 1m6f with cheekpieces back on for the Curragh Cup. A Group 1 winner over 12f, he looks the class act in the field and, with stamina in the pedigree, should prove hard to beat if seeing out the trip.
Horse: Al Riffa
Trainer: Joseph O'Brien
Race: 4:15pm Curragh

What is a Nap of the Day?
A Nap of the Day is a selection put up by a tipster as their most confident bet - the one horse they think has the best chance of winning.
How do you Choose a Horse Racing NAP?
When choosing their Nap of the Day, our expert tipsters consider several factors, which include:
- Form: A horse’s recent form is a good indicator of its chances of winning. They look for horses that have been running consistently well.
- Course Record: A horse’s record at the track where it is running is also essential - some horses perform better at certain tracks than others.
- Ground Conditions: The ground conditions can affect a horse’s performance - some horses prefer soft ground, while others prefer firm ground.
- Draw: The draw can also make a difference, especially in sprint races, so this factor comes into play regularly on the flat.
- Trainer: A trainer’s record is another essential factor to consider - are their horses running well - do they have a strong record at the track?
- Jockey: Finally, a jockey’s ability can significantly impact a horse’s performance, and some horses get on better with a particular jockey onboard.
