Today's best bets, by Will Hayler
Sir Bumble (3.10) ran the race of his life on this day at Wincanton last season when second at a big price. He subsequently reverted to type and totally lost the plot formwise but clearly has ability and a move to join the excellent Andy Haynes might just be the catalyst for a revival his fortunes at Worcester today. At this morning's price of around 8-1, I reckon it's worth paying to find out.
Tipping competition, day four
The tipping on here yesterday was almost as high-quality as the banter. There were plenty of doubles, including those achieved by WalthamstowLad, FinsburyPark and MrPositive, who all had Jacarado (8-1) and The Snail (11-2). If you can keep up that form through the jumps season, lads, it'll be a long winter for everyone else.
Today, we'd like your tips, please, for these races: 3.20 Newbury, 4.05 Wincanton, 4.45 Worcester.
This week's prize is a copy of the latest thriller from the Dick Francis stable, Even Money, which is now out in hardback and begins with a murder at Royal Ascot.
As ever, our champion will be the tipster who returns the best profit to notional level stakes of £1 at starting price on our nominated races, of which there will be three each day up until Friday. Non-runners count as losers.
