Best horse racing tips for Saturday: Sunracing’s top picks for today’s racing at Goodwood, Chelmsford, Thirsk, Newmarket, Doncaster, Lingfield and Hamilton
Don't miss out on Sunracing's best bet and each-way shot at all of Saturday's meetings
IT'S absolutely chocka with racing all over the country on Saturday and there are seven meetings to sift through.
The Sunracing team have been through the cards and have tips for every meeting across the country.
Goodwood
Best bet
3.00 Sun Maiden - Sir Michael Stoute threw his three-year-old filly in the deep end at Royal Ascot last time after she bolted up in a Salisbury novice and she ran a great race to finish third. This contest is easier and there's almost certainly more to come considering where she's stabled.
Each way
3.40 Pettochside - Never got into a handicap over five furlongs earlier in the week but this test should suit much better. Loves the course and will get a good tow into the race under smart claimer Hollie Doyle.

Chelmsford
Best bet
2.45 Sacred Path - Won a maiden at the course last time out by a mile and although she was entitled to, it was still impressive. John Gosden's filly will surely progress again and although a mark of 85 is no gift, she can defy it on the way to better things.
Each way
3.55 Nakhaytak - Produced an encouraging performance last time in a Wolverhampton novice and an opening mark of 70 looks more than fair. Can do the business for a trainer that had Group 1 winner earlier in the week.
Thirsk
Best bet
2.50 Orion's Bow - Drops down to a Class 4 for the first time since he was successful in June 2016 and that can help him rediscover the winning thread. A level above these at his best and will take some stopping off a falling mark.
Each way
3.25 Calvados Spirit - Was a tad disappointing last time out but on his second behind Escobar after a wind operation he could be good enough to land this. Only had two starts since joining Richard Fahey and the top trainer can probably eke a little more out of his five-year-old.

Newmarket
Best bet
2.05 Crimson Rosette - Likely to take lot of beating on her form so far this season, particularly her second to God Given in a Group 3 at Haydock last month. Charlie Fellowes has his string in good order and this one can do the business.
Each way
2.40 Princess Power - A very competitive nursery can go the way of Nigel Tinkler's dual winner, who has won his last two and is progressing quickly. Likely to be a bigger price than he should be.
Doncaster
Best bet
4.05 Gulf Of Poets - Hasn't been seen since running a cracker in a competitive Wetherby handicap back in May after notching two wins in decent races elsewhere. Should be refreshed now and prove hard to catch.
Each way
4.40 Naadirr - A very decent performer back in the day ran a belter in a Group 3 in Italy back in May. That followed a handicap win at Doncaster and although he's had a break he should be able to make his presence felt here.

Lingfield
Best bet
7.35 Dr Doro - Slightly strange that trainer Ian Williams opts to fit his five-year-old with a visor considering she showed a fine attitude to win last time. However, he is a shrewd man and his mare should have more to come on her second start back from a lengthy break.
Each way
6.05 Peace And Plenty - Showed some decent form for the grade off much higher marks last season but has been disappointing since then. However, now off a very low rating and has had a wind operation and gets a first time tongue-tie.
Hamilton
Best bet
6.50 Nuns Walk - Won well last time out and should be capable of going in again off a four pound higher mark. Rachel Richardson is good value for her claim and can strike on this consistent sort.
Each way
8.50 Sioux Frontier - Won at the track on his penultimate start but was unable to land a blow last time out. However, capable of better returned to the scene of his victory and still looks on a decent mark.
