An eight-year-old gelding who has been lightly raced since scoring over course and distance here in July  last year but still holds promising claims at a big price today. Racing three times last year for Jamie  Snowdon over hurdles, Sea The Clouds produced results of 2, 2, 1 with his course and distance victory  coming in a Class 3 affair.  

Lightly raced since with only two appearances, he pulled up in September on his final start for Jamie Snowdon before making the switch to James Moffatt’s yard just eight days ago. Sent straight into action at Cartmel in Class 2 company, where he finished 9th of 12, he is dropping into his usual Class 4 today, and he should show improvement given he now has a race under his belt. One to watch at a big price.

Our first free horse racing tip of the day comes in the 16:18 at Newton Abbot, where we have AL SAYAH, coming in with a Racing Rating of 9.0. 

A five-year-old mare who is back in action over hurdles this year after rounding up 2024 with three  appearances on the flat, landing an easy 8 ½ length win at Bath. Reverting to hurdles last month on her  first start of 2025, Al Sayah made a mistake two from home and was only narrowly beaten when second  at Exeter, but bouncing back earlier this month to score over course and distance by 2 ¼ lengths, she  holds bold claims on her return today. 

Consistent when sent over hurdles, Al Sayah’s last five results have produced finishes of 4, 1, 1, 2, 1 and  with Conor O’Farrell being in the saddle for her two latest performances, this 6lb rise doesn’t look  enough to halt her progress returning to Newton Abbot.

Up next in our free Racing Ratings tips, we are staying at Newton Abbot for the 16:48, where we have  ON SPRINGS, coming in with a Racing Rating of 8.7. 

A 10-year-old gelding who has been successful throughout his career under Ben Pauling, winning five of his 15 appearances over fences, and given his recent form this year when raced in points, he holds solid claims on his chase debut for new connections. Making the switch to Luca Morgan’s yard in April, On  Springs has won all three of his starts in points since making the switch, and given he is returning to good ground over fences today, he needs to be respected. 

12 of his 15 appearances over fences have come on good ground, and considering all five of his wins have come when raced on good ground, today’s conditions are perfect for the 10-year-old on his return  to fences.

Rounding up Wednesday’s free Racing Ratings tips, we are heading to Cartmel for the 19:10, where we  have SEA THE CLOUDS, coming in with a Racing Rating of 9.6.
