Racing Tips – Top Tipster Steve Mullen’s best racing selections for Friday, August 11
Steve Mullen guides you through Friday's racing from Brighton, Haydock, Musselburgh, Wolverhampton and Newmarket
HAYDOCK
5.40
OMOTESANDO enjoyed soft ground and a proper test of stamina when beaten a neck at Carlisle last time out.
The handicapper has left his mark alone despite that near miss and he’s won here before. Provided four days off is enough between races, he should go close.
KASHMIRI SUNSET relished the 1m5f distance when winning at Ayr last time on his debut for trainer Iain Jardine.
He’s got just 1lb more on his back here and has gone on soft ground before. He should be right there again on just his third start on the level.
6.45
EXHORT made a really nice start to her career last month when beaten a neck on debut at Doncaster.
She would have won in a few more strides and there was a fair way back to the third horse home. She wouldn’t have to improve much to get off the mark.
7.15
VEEJAY was a game winner on his last visit to Haydock where he built well on his Salisbury debut win.
There was some give in the ground that day so he should cope well with these conditions. He was sent to Goodwood last time and got the worst of the heavy conditions there.
He wasn’t asked too many questions by his rider and he can bounce back here.
🏇 Mullen's star bet 🏇

NAP Haydock (6.15) - Kashmiri Sunset: 'Won on his debut for trainer Iain Jardine and should be right there again'.
7.45
Hugo Palmer is more than capable of getting one ready for their debut so his WHITE MOCHA gets the nod over Neeraan.
He should have no problem with this trip as staying will be his game over time. Obviously the betting will be a useful guide.
8.20
AYRESOME ANGEL has been knocking on the door with a close effort at Nottingham last time out. That was on the back of a solid third over course and distance last month.
She doesn’t mind getting her toe in and looks well handicapped on a mark of just 65,
