Today’s Horse Racing Tips – August 8th
There are six scheduled meetings in Britain and Ireland on a busy Thursday, with flat fans having cards from Brighton, Chepstow, Leopardstown, Sandown and Yarmouth to get stuck into. Fast summer ground remains the order of the day on the turf, and big summer holiday crowds are assured at the seaside venue in particular as their popular festival week continues. Jumps fans have big fields to study at Sligo, with the action getting underway at 5.05pm.

Today’s Daily Nap
Mumayaz
Brighton 3.30 (UK time)
Tony Carroll’s handicapper has been inching down the weights for making little impact in warm contests at the top tracks, and a drop in class and return to Brighton can spark him back into winning form. He ran a blinder here over six furlongs in June, looking a very unlucky loser in the run, and these fast conditions clearly suit him ideally.
Odds: 5.50
Today’s Value Angle
Tataeo
Brighton 4.00 (UK time)
James Ferguson’s unexposed handicapper overcame adversity to win at Lingfield in May, and has held his form since in slightly stronger company at the top tracks. He should get the strong pace he needs to aim at with a couple of confirmed frontrunners in the line-up, and can weave his way through up the final climb for home under Ray Dawson.
Odds: 9.00
