Monday's Nap of the Day Selections
Our top tipsters return with their best bets for Monday'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 naps.
Alan Kelly's Nap of the Day Tip
Roger Varian’s ACCENTUATE looks the one to beat in a strong second division, having chased home a useful type at Newbury and previously finished third in a hot Ascot novice where the form has worked out well. With that depth of form and clear scope for improvement, he sets a high standard, though Almekarem could be interesting in the first division if the market vibes are positive.
Horse: Accentuate
Trainer: Roger Varian
Race: 8:00pm Windsor
Odds: 10/11 with bet365
Charlie McCann's Nap of the Day Tip
SHADOWS IN THE SKY was no match for Harrys Hope over fences at Warwick last week, but ran a big race despite some sketchy jumping, finishing just over a length behind a well-handicapped rival. If Alex Chadwick can get him into a good rhythm back over hurdles, he has the engine to go close.
Horse: Shadows In The Sky
Trainer: James Owen
Race: 5:20pm Southwell
Odds: 11/8 with bet365

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 Nap of the Day?
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.
