Horse racing tips: Wednesday, July 2
Harry Reynolds' selections NAP: Alzahir (7.23, Epsom) 1pt win @ 4/5 with William Hill ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Other: Dandy Style (2.03 Thirsk) 1pt win @ 2/1 with William Hill ⭐⭐⭐ Odds provided by William Hill and correct at the time of writing. Stars denote strength of selection (max 5). If you already have a William Hill account and are looking for a new bookmaker to use for this week's racing, check out more free bets from the best betting sites, reviewed by our experts. 7.23 Epsom – Class 3 Handicap (6f) Jennie Candlish saddled four winners from seven runners to end the month of June, one of which was the impressive ALZAHIR (NAP) at Chester on Saturday. A half-brother to the multiple Group-race winner Suedois, Alzahir was once rated as high as 100 when trained by John and Thady Gosden. It's fair to say that he's now back on an upward trajectory after losing his way for a while, readily scoring off a mark of 90 on the Roodee. The five-year-old gelding is quickly turned out again under a 5lb penalty, which is completely negated by Warren Fentiman's handy claim. Running off the same rating here, with the handicapper sure to give him a hike in the weights, the son of Sea The Stars looks to have a good bit in hand on his rivals. 2.03 Thirsk – Class 5 Restricted Novice Stakes (6f) Kevin Ryan's Tropical Dreamer is more than likely to attract plenty of attention at the head of the market, but he could have his work cut out under a 7lb penalty against DANDY STYLE. Both horses are going up to 6f from the minimum 5f, but the selection should be much more street-wise following his debut effort at Carlisle. The form of that race could hardly be working out any better, as the three runners who beat Dandy Style home have all won since. The forecast faster ground in North Yorkshire should also be in favour of Bryan Smart's colt, given his sire Dandy Man was successful on it several times throughout his career. Paul Mulrennan takes the ride, which is a big positive in itself. Only two jockeys have won more races at Thirsk in the past five years than Mulrennan, with his mounts also showing a profit of +45.41 to a £1 stake during that time. It all looks set up for a big run from Dandy Style, who could have a bright future ahead of him. Selection: Dandy Style 1pt win @ 2/1 with William Hill Today's UK and Irish racing (Flat unless stated) Thirsk 2.03-5.48 Worcester (NH) 2.15-5.25 Tipperary 5.05-8.20 Chepstow 5.30-8.45 Epsom 6.20-9.00 What does NAP mean? NAP is a word used in betting circles to describe a prediction that a tipster thinks has a particularly strong chance of winning. Many horse racing tipsters pick out a 'NAP of the day', which is their favoured selection from all the races across the different meetings. The term NAP derives from the French card game Napoleon. When players of this game thought they had a particularly strong hand that they would win with, they would shout 'Napoleon'. What is an each-way bet? An each-way bet is a popular type of wager, particularly with horse racing fans. It is essentially two bets, both of which have the same size stake. An each-way bet features one bet on the selection to win and the other bet on the selection to place. So a £10 each-way bet will cost you a total of £20. There will be one £10 bet on the selection to win and another £10 on the selection to place. It's a popular bet because it offers punters the chance of a return, even if the horse in question fails to win. Bookmakers will pay out at a stated percentage of the odds for a place finish, for example one-fifth of the starting price (SP) for finishing in the first three. The more runners there are in a horse race, the more places will be on offer. In races that feature lots of runners, the horses will be available at bigger odds, making an each-way bet a wise choice.

Horse racing tips: ‘Excellent young jockey can bang in another winner' – Templegate's red-hot NAP
TEMPLEGATE tackles Wednesday's action hungry for winners. Back a horse by clicking their odds below. ALZAHIR (7.23 Epsom, nap) Jennie Candlish's five-year-old was in sparkling form at Chester when winning over this distance with plenty up his sleeve. That was just four days ago and he ran well here over a stretching seven furlongs last month. His excellent young rider's claim takes off the 5lb penalty and he'll go close. EMILY POST (4.03 Thirsk, nb) Wasn't beaten far at Wetherby last time and has had a welcome nudge down the weights from the handicapper. She is best over this distance and has won stronger races than this. She won't be far away for trainer Michael Dods. STINTINO SUNSET (8.30 Epsom, treble) She ran close to her best when just denied at Windsor last time and is back from the same handicap mark in what looks a weaker race. EASY PEELER (5.13 Thirsk, Lucky 15) She tanked along when winning a decent contest at York last time and a 4lb rise is fair for a filly who looks sure to improve under Jason Hart.

Pictured: Woman who died when she was kicked in the head by a horse in tragic accident
Jockey turned strapper Peta Tait is being mourned by the Australian racing industry after she died in a freak accident at a leading stable on Tuesday morning. Peta Tait couldn't be saved by paramedics after she was kicked in the head by a horse while working as a stable hand at Cranbourne Training Centre in south-east Melbourne. Tait was struck by the horse at around 7.30am while in the stables of trainers Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young. The 'much loved' 43-year-old was remembered as an 'incredible person' by her employers in a statement made on Wednesday. 'It is with tremendous sadness that Busuttin Racing confirm the passing of much loved team member Peta Tait following a tragic accident at our Cranbourne stable yesterday morning,' the statement read. 'At this time our thoughts are with those nearest and dearest to Peta, her immediate family and many friends, both inside and outside of the racing industry, as well as her team of colleagues of whom she had maintained strong personal and professional relationships. The 43-year-old (pictured) has been remembered as an 'incredible person' who became a highly regarded member of the racing community she was a part of for almost 30 years 'Peta was an incredible person who was dedicated to her role and will leave a long-standing legacy. We are heartbroken by her loss.' Tait had been a highly regarded member of Victoria's racing community for almost 30 years. She started working as a jockey aged just 16 and rode 48 winners and more than 120 place-getters before retiring in 2019. Tait also worked as a stable employee and track rider from 2006, in addition to being a strapper on race days. Racing Victoria CEO Aaron Morrison also paid tribute in a statement. 'On behalf of the Victorian racing industry, I would like to extend our heartfelt condolences to Peta's family, friends and work colleagues on the tragic news of her passing,' Morrison said. 'This terrible accident serves as an untimely reminder of the thousands of unsung heroes working in stables each day to provide the best possible care to our racehorses. 'Like all within our industry, Peta loved horses and she forged a career working with them, helping numerous trainers prepare their horses as a trackwork rider or strapping them on raceday. 'She was also a popular member of the picnic racing circuit, enjoying the unique thrill of competing in races as an amateur jockey and doing so with success.' Paramedics performed CPR on Tait after responding to a call at about 7.50am but were unable to save her, Victoria Police told Daily Mail Australia. 'Police will prepare a report for the coroner following the death of a woman in Cranbourne on 1 July,' the statement read. 'Emergency services were called to a training facility on Cemetery Road just after 7.30am following reports a woman had been kicked by a horse in stables. 'CPR was performed but the yet to be formally identified woman has died at the scene. 'The death is not being treat as suspicious and WorkSafe has been notified.'
