Friday's Horse Racing Tips: Haydock, October 18th
Today’s Horse Racing Tips – October 18th
There are six meetings in the UK and Ireland on a very busy Friday, with flat action from Dundalk (AW), Haydock, Newcastle (AW) and Redcar setting punters and bookmakers some varied challenges across the grades. The jumping comes from Fakenham and Uttoxeter, where big fields are the order of the day on testing ground.

Lovely Spirit
Haydock 2.20 (UK time)
Richard Fahey’s progressive juvenile bumped into a smart one when second on her handicap debut at Ayr last time out, and can go one better at Haydock on Friday. She remains open to improvement after just five career starts, and this seven furlong trip with cut in the ground should be ideal under the red-hot Oisin Orr.
Odds: 4.50
Today’s Value Angle
Station X
Haydock 2.55 (UK time)
Brian Smart’s juvenile has improved gradually run to run in six career starts so far, and get off the mark here under Paul Mulrennan. He ran really well when fourth in the mud at Catterick last time out, poorly placed wide, and a positive ride on this flatter track should make him hard to pass on the testing ground.
Odds: 6.00
