Today’s Daily Nap

Paint the Dream

Kempton 2:05 (UK time)

Fergal O’Brien’s bold frontrunner routed a competitive field at Newbury last time out, jumping superbly and in command turning for home to win unchallenged. This Grade 2 represents a different test going right-handed, but he is clearly thriving and could soon have these rivals out of their comfort zone under another attacking ride from Connor Brace.

Odds: NA

Today’s Value Angle

Harbour Lake

Kempton 2:40 (UK time)

Alan King’s 7-y-o remains open to improvement over hurdles after just 7 starts, and he has run well in defeat at Aintree and Cheltenham since winning at Market Rasen on his seasonal debut. The softening of the ground is very much in his favour under the excellent Sam Twiston-Davies, and he seems sure to get the strong pace up front he needs to swoop late.

Odds: NA

Odds are best odds available as at 2am January 13th 2022. Odds may now differ.

ITV Racing Tips – Saturday January 14th

Time (UK)	Track	Horse	Analysis
1:30	Kempton	Smarty Wild	Phillip Hobbs chaser often spoils his winning chance with a jumping error at the wrong time, but he has a good record round Kempton and should be nearing his peak after two runs so far this winter.
1:50	Warwick	Complete Unknown	Paul Nicholls has a typically strong hand with his novice chasers this season, and his scopey sort sort win a really strong contest on his chasing debut at Ffos Las in December. He steps up into Graded company at Warwick on Saturday, but should relish the testing ground and remains open to loads of improvement in this sphere.
2:05	Kempton	Paint the Dream	Fergal O’Brien’s bold frontrunner routed a competitive field at Newbury last time out, jumping superbly and in command turning for home to win unchallenged. This Grade 2 represents a different test going right-handed, but he is clearly thriving and could soon have these rivals out of their comfort zone under another attacking ride from Connor Brace.
2:25	Warwick	Knowsley Road	Paul Nicholls chasing type has impressed in winning both of his starts over hurdles so far at Chepstow, and looks ready for this step up into Graded company under Lorcan Williams. He raced with zest from the front when making all last time out (despite looking ill at ease and hanging left on the camber), and those tactics are always a good plan round this sharp left-handed track.
2:40	Kempton	Harbour Lake	Alan King’s 7-y-o remains open to improvement over hurdles after just 7 starts, and he has run well in defeat at Aintree and Cheltenham since winning at Market Rasen on his seasonal debut. The softening of the ground is very much in his favour under the excellent Sam Twiston-Davies, and he seems sure to get the strong pace up front he needs to swoop late.
3:00	Warwick	Wouldubewell	Emma Lavelle’s stayer is unexposed granted an extreme test of stamina, and he shaped a lot better than the bare result in the Welsh National at Chepstow last time out. A more positive ride will be needed round this track in a huge field for this valuable prize, but he has only run six times over fences and can improve past some more jaded and exposed sluggards.
3:35	Warwick	Glimpse of Gala	Charlie Longsden’s mare has probably been running herself into top form this winter, and did really well to win at Kempton last time out in December. The 7lb claimer Bradley Roberts is back in the saddle here (very promising young rider), and all of this reliable handicapper’s best form has come round sharp tracks similar to Warwick.
