Today’s Horse Racing Tip

This is a good contest to kick off our daily racing tips with. QUEEN POWER is one of the key contenders in the field. She won the Group 2 Dahlia Stakes 11 days ago.

She is the only one in the field besides FREYA who is match sharp having had a recent run.

But it looks a fairly even match between Queen Power, PASSION and SILENCE PLEASE, the latter two both from Aidan O’Brien.

PASSION had a busy 2020 and collected an excellent third-place finish at Group 1 to end the campaign. That was at Ascot on Champions Day in October.

She perhaps would prefer a slightly longer trip but PASSION can’t be counted out totally because of that. She is definitely one of the big dangers and is the highest-rated runner in the field.

Passion is a quote of 5/2 to overturn the field at York on Thursday* (betting odds recorded 21:14 GMT on 12th May 2021 at Betway).

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

The Dante Stakes is the big one of the day. HIGH DEFINITION is the 6/4 favourite for the contest* (betting odds recorded 21:14 GMT on 12th May 2021 at Betway).

This is a very strong renewal of the race so will the Derby-bound runner have things all his own way? As a 2-year-old, High Definition produced stellar runs to make it two wins from two.

His ceiling of potential is super high. But he missed an engagement 11 days ago at Lingfield. So he is not match sharp as this is his reappearance.

The big player that is match fit is HURRICANE LANE who scored at Newbury on his reappearance a month ago. He looked very good in that one, building on a winning debut as well for Charlie Appleby.

So he could have a big say from 5/1* (betting odds recorded 21:14 GMT on 12th May 2021 at Betway). Hurricane Lane just made it in as our horse racing tip for the Dane on Thursday.

Another is GEAR UP who makes his reappearance. There is a lot to like about his claims. He won the Acomb here as a juvenile, as well as Group 1 at Saint-Cloud.

So the credentials are there and if the ground softens, he should be right in the thick of it from 11/2* (betting odds recorded 21:14 GMT on 12th May 2021 at Betway).

Another that is perhaps worth keeping on side is MEGALLAN. The trip should really bring the best out of him.

He arrives with two runs under his belt in this campaign, both very good efforts in a listed company, winning the latter.

So he’s in form and a threat from 7/1 as well* (betting odds recorded 21:14 GMT on 12th May 2021 at Betway).

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

This is a very strong race and the two front runners for the contest appear to be ACKLAM EXPRESS and WINTER POWER.

The former has been producing some excellent form. He was last seen in a Group 1 Sprint at Meydan back in March.

It was a fantastic run and as he was on his own in third over the last couple of furlongs, the competitiveness in this race is likely to pull more from him.

Acklam Express is definitely at the top of the pecking order for the West Stakes. There is also a previous course and distance victory for him.

The thing that just tips us towards him over Winter Power is that his rival hasn’t run since October. So there is a chance that she will need this competitive run to get his season going.

Sge signed off the previous campaign with back to back wins. She is a fantastic filly, make no mistake and she has the tongue tie on for the first time.

If she had had a reappearance urn, we may just have tipped her.

But it is 15/8 shot ACKLAM EXPRESS who is our racing tip for the Westow* (betting odds recorded 21:14 GMT on 12th May 2021 at Betway).

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

NYE BEVAN is probably going to be the one to take aloof the beating at Even money in this one* (betting odds recorded 21:14 GMT on 12th May 2021 at Betway).

On his penultimate run, he earned a course and distance win. He went straight back out on an appearance this year and delivered another win.

That latest effort was at Worcester a week ago. He stays at the same mark and with form and that in mind, it’s hard to pass him over.

The big threat in the field for him is OLYMPIC HONOUR who has a 5lb claimer on his back in Isabel Williams. Olympic Honour Was second to Nye Bevan at Worcester a week ago.

If he can get back anywhere near that kind of performance, then he should be a lock for a place finish. We don’t quite see him turning the tables on his rival.

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

We have a mother’s strong favourite for Thursday’s horse racing tips that we just cannot overlook.

This is AADDEEY at 4/6* (betting odds recorded 21:14 GMT on 12th May 2021 at Betway).

The gelding comes up a couple of pounds for a longer trip on the day. That little extra looks like a good fit for him.

Academy was last seen 25 days ago when he collected a runner up spot in a Newbury handicap.

That was after a 6-month break so he should be that much better for it. That reappearance run saw him produce a career-best.

RODRIGO DIAZ looks to be the bigger challenger as he comes in for his reappearance run. He was on the up last season, winning an all-weather hat trick to sign off with. This is a tougher ask than anything he faced in that run.

Today’s Horse Racing Tip

Today’s final horse racing tip is WITHOUT REVENGE who could have something to offer from 15/2* (betting odds recorded 21:14 GMT on 12th May 2021 at Betway).

There was a decent reappearance run from him at Sundown three weeks ago. So he should strip a little fitter for that.

He got off the market in handicapping as a Glenfield novice at the 1m trip last November. Without Revenge is coming up on a trip for this one. He is no forlorn hope for this one.
