How we pick our NAP of the day
Our free horse racing tips cover UK and Irish meetings every racing day, published each racing morning with the best available price and written reasoning. The nap of the day is our single top-rated selection. Only one NAP is published per day, anchored on this page at #nap; on quiet cards where nothing clears the threshold we publish none rather than force a pick.
Every runner in scope is scored on a composite of Racing Post Rating (RPR), Official Rating (OFR), Topspeed, its last four finishing positions and the trainer's 14-day strike rate, with small adjustments for a low draw in bigger fields and first-time headgear, and a penalty for a long absence.
The NAP is the highest-scoring horse on that composite. Every racing pick is win-only.
Racing is recorded internally, separate from football. We do not publish a public win/loss record or profit figure. 18+ · BeGambleAware.org.
Race-day NAP and rated selections publish in the morning before the first UK or Irish meeting, with bookmaker odds at time of publication. Coverage focuses on UK and Irish jumps and flat meetings, with all-weather and major European festival days added when value is present.
What does NAP mean?
NAP is a tipster's strongest selection of the day — our model's top-rated horse across all of the day's racing. There is one NAP per race day; everything else is graded as a rated pick, and every racing selection is win-only. NAPs are tracked internally in their own racing ledger, separate from football — we do not publish a public win/loss record or profit figure.
Is horse racing tracked in the same results as football?
No. Horse racing has its own profit-and-loss ledger, tracked independently from football. This keeps the football ROI line clean for readers who only follow football, and The racing ledger is internal, not published.
What stakes do you recommend?
Every racing pick is a 1-unit win bet, no staking grid.
Which UK bookmakers do you reference for racing odds?
Racing odds shown next to each tip are the best win price across the fixed-odds bookmakers in our odds feed when we publish (exchanges excluded). Always confirm the current price with your bookmaker before backing — racing prices move sharply on the morning of the race.
Are racing tips free?
Yes — the NAP and our top racing selections each day are free to view with no signup; members also see additional selections. The racing pillar is funded the same way as the football pillar — through commercial partnerships with UK Gambling Commission licensed bookmakers when readers choose to claim welcome offers.
