Nap of the day

I'm back in situ at Betfred HQ after a week off and my number one priority is to get back to tipping winners for Nap of the Day followers.

Wolverhampton is the destination for Tuesday's attempt, as my attention begins to turn tow the flat season.

It's rare I'd back a debutant, especially a filly starting out in a four-runner affair on the all-weather, but it's easy to make an exception for TICKER TAPE at Wolverhampton on Tuesday.

John & Thady Gosden's three-year-old is a daughter of Time Test out of Crimson Ribbon, making her a half-sister to Ascot Gold Cup hero Courage Mon Ami.

She's also related to Listed winners Danielle (rated 114) and Lion's Pride (108). Crimson Rosette (103) and Purple Ribbon (102), too.

It's a classy pedigree and if the selection, who like the majority of her siblings is owned by the legendary Anthony Oppenheimer, is anywhere near as good as those mentioned, she ought to take a good bit of stopping in this 1m½f fillies' novice stakes.

It rates an ordinary field, headed by the 79-rated Lizzana for Marco Botti.

The three-year-old daughter of Saxon Warrior caught the eye on debut over course and distance in September and she opened her account in good style in a Class 2 contest at Kempton the following month.

However, with the benefit of hindsight the opposition wasn't the strongest that day and she was receiving weight - as much as eight pounds - from her closest rivals.

The runner-up, Shebara for Andrew Balding, was beaten on her next two starts, earning an opening mark of 76 - while Myrrh (third) and Court Of Stars (fourth) were hardly ripping up trees before their visit to Surrey.

Lizzana must concede five pounds to Ticker Tape, which could prove a very, very difficult task if the latter lives up to her profile.

Ammoony, the other filly in this field with form in the book, also has a penalty to shoulder. A couple of pounds, to be precise. Her back-to-back defeats at Leicester do little to inspire in regards to her chances here.

There's lots to like about the other newcomer in the field, Sayidah Aleen for Jack Channon, but once again if Ticker Tape is as good as I'm suggesting, it's a big ask.
