Best horse racing tips for Thursday: Sunracing’s top picks for today’s racing at Newcastle, Newmarket, Nottingham, Leicester and Hamilton
Don't miss out on Sunracing's best bet and each-way shot at all five meetings today
THURSDAY is a busy one with five cards to get stuck into - and we've picked out our best bets for each meeting.
There is plenty of quality action on show as the Northumberland Plate Festival begins up at Newcastle.
Newcastle
Best bet
1.30 Dutch Coed: Was a surprise 40-1 winner at Hamilton last time out but that didn't look like a fluke and off a 6lb higher mark has the potential to be better than these.
Each-way
4.15 Leader's Legacy: 1-1 on Tapeta and found the trip stretching him last time. Back over a mile and returned to synthetics he can strike with a capable claimer on board.
STEP UP Billesdon Brook could tackle longer trip at Glorious Goodwood
Newmarket
Best bet
2.40 Spring Romance: Is on a roll at the moment and although he's tackling a higher grade today, he should have more to come. His most recent win was impressive and a 7lb higher mark won't be enough to stop him.
Each-way
5.00 Medieval: Top weight was useful a couple of seasons ago and struck on the Rowley at Newmarket last season. He's dropped to a winning mark and the lower grade can help him return to winning ways.
Nottingham
Best bet
4.35 Tallinski: Silvestre de Sousa takes over from a claimer on board Brian Ellison's sprinter and after a good second last time, he can go one better here. He's off a mark 4lb lower than when last successful and can strike once again.
Each-way
5.10 Kingstreet Lady: In-form five-year-old has been narrowly beaten on her last two starts but isn't handicapped out of things. Has improved for her current trainer and looks capable of getting back on the scoresheet.

Leicester
Best bet
7.50 Choral Music: Successful in three of her last four outings, Jonathan Portman's progressive sprinter could be too good her these once again. It's always worth following fillies in form and she can chalk up another win.
Each-way
8.50 Broad Appeal: Was too keen at Newbury on his latest start but if conserving a little bit more energy then he can win for the first time on turf. It could be a good afternoon for Portman.

Hamilton
Best bet
8.40: Economic Crisis: Loves it at Hamilton and comes into the race off the back of a good victory at Ayr last time out. Harrison Shaw takes off a valuable 5lb and this one could follow up.
Each-way
7.00: On The High Tops: Not won for a long time but showed his best form for a while when just losing out in a similar race at Beverley last time out. Can go well off a very low mark.
