Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Tele Red is our selection for this ten-furlong Class 4 at Nottingham, and his progressive profile earns the nod over Naples, who sits on the same rating of 84. With the ground soft and the trip a proper test, a horse on an upward curve looks the sounder choice than one who may have already shown his best. Naples is the obvious danger as an equal on figures, while Arbaawy and Night Patrol, both on 81, are narrowly behind and cannot be dismissed. Tele Red gets the vote.

Ivan Furtado 1/11
Winner last time out and a fourth two starts back, she arrives fresh after 30 days and has run on today's going before. Against that, only one win in her last six outings and a 140 lb burden from stall one, while our rating of 79 ranks her fifth of nine.

Third last time out and a second three starts back show Now Maybe is in the frame often, though he is winless in his last five and has run over today's trip only as experience. Carrying 139 lb from draw 7, he rates sixth of nine on our figures.

Royal Poetry was only sixth last time and unplaced the start before, so the recent form is hard to love, and 54 days off adds fitness doubt. On the plus side, she has run over today's trip and going, and won four starts back, though 136 lb from draw 2 is a lot to carry.

Arbaawy arrives in cracking nick, runner-up on his last two starts and fresh from a run just 13 days ago, with experience of both today's trip and going. Our rating of 81 ranks him third of nine, but he remains without a win in his last six, and that is the main risk.

Tele Red comes into this on the up after a second last time out just nine days ago, and he has run over today's trip and on this going before. Winless in his last five, he is still our pick on overall profile, with a rating of 84 backing that up.

Night Patrol bids to build on a fourth last time out and a third two starts back, returning after 16 days with experience of today's trip and going, and our rating of 81 ranks him fourth of nine. The main risk is that he's yet to win in his last five starts.

Steph Hollinshead 0/9
Top-rated of the nine on our figures (84), Naples is fresh from a 12-day turnaround and has run over today's trip and going, though the main risk is that he's been unplaced in his last three outings and is yet to score in recent starts.

Love You Back has been consistent, finishing second last time out, a winner two starts back, and placed in each of his last five outings, but he has to carry 128 lb from stall nine after 37 days off. Our figures rank him eighth of nine, so he is hard to fancy despite having run over today's trip and going.

Lady Hornblower arrives a two-time winner, successful last time out and two starts back, and has run over today's trip and going, but she finished 7th, 3rd and 8th in the three runs before that, and our figures rank her last of nine. She carries 127 lb from draw 3.
