Horse racing tips plus best bets at Newbury, Newmarket, Thirsk, Bangor and Chelmsford

RED VINEYARD (2:45) can bear fruit for Team Muir & Grassick in the London Gold Cup at Newbury. The three-year-old wasn’t particularly fancied ahead of his debut in a Ffos Las maiden in September. However, he looked a nice prospect when comfortably accounting for the useful Ladypacksapunch . The colt then found Group 3 company too much when only sixth behind Light Infantry at Newbury. The son of Slade Power bounced back with a smooth defeat of Al Kareem on his return at Sandown. That was a strong contest so this pacey type can deny some promising rivals under Tom Marquand.

HIERARCHY (1:35) can take control for Hugo Palmer in a tricky renewal of the Carnarvon Stakes. The sprinter built on some good efforts when chinned by Wings Of War in last year’s Mill Reef here. The colt put in another decent shift when sixth in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint at Del Mar. The three-year-old looked better than ever when chasing home Go Bears Go on his return at Ascot. The son of Mehmas will be fighting fit so he can resume winning ways for his thriving connections.

ESHAADA (2:10) can make her class tell for in-form Roger Varian in the Al Rayyan Stakes. The filly stayed on the upgrade when just denied by Loving Dream in the Ribblesdale at Ascot.
