Sandown (15:00)
👑 Nostrum to Win
📊
Racing Rating: 20
Friday’s free horse racing tip comes in the 15:00 at Sandown, where we have NOSTRUM coming in with a Racing Rating of 20.
A lightly raced four-year-old colt who is making his return today after an eight-month break. An impressive start to his career, with his first win coming here at Sandown on debut back in 2022, it was a sign of things to come. Going on to win Group 3 and Listed events both at Newmarket, he has won three of his six career appearances in tough races. Running well in defeat on two of those starts, he finished third in the Group 1 Dewhurst at Newmarket and second in a Group 3 at Goodwood before finishing 6/6 at York’s Ebor festival last time out. Racing prominently and looking a threat, he finished lame and will be looking to bounce back to his winning ways on his first start since.
Nostrum is the one to beat here today after his eight-month break, and he’s the sort who runs well when fresh, winning his Listed event at Newmarket after a nine-month absence.
Friday’s Free Horse Racing Tip of the Day
Our horse racing expert has been hard at work researching every runner at every UK track this afternoon, and they have picked out their favourite horse from the entire day of racing, COGITATE, who will be featuring in the 13:50 at Sandown.
Sandown (13:50)
👑 Cogitate to Win
Impressive Newbury maiden winner COGITATE appeals despite racing from a lofty handicap mark of 93. The son of Churchill beat a now-rated 107 horse that day and could be ahead of his current rating. He had a tough task on seasonal reappearance at Southwell, facing 2000 Guineas hope Night Raider, who looks a genuine Group performer this season, but ran on encouragingly. It’s worth taking a chance that there could be more to come second-time-out against a few of these, who may need the run.
