Horse Racing Tips: Nap of the Day, best bets around the tracks and daily Request-A-Bet

Matt Brocklebank provides the tips from around the tracks on Thursday with the Nap running at Carlisle.
Dan Skelton's SNIPE looks the one to be on in the Phil Gowling Memorial rhino.bet Handicap Chase at Carlisle. The lightly-raced seven-year-old won twice during his first season over fences, including first time out this time last year, and while a bit below par when set a stiff task on his final outing in February, he's likely to come out firing again this season given the yard is seemingly going through the gears. He seems fine on all types of ground and should still have plenty more to offer from his mark of 124, just 6lb higher than when scoring impressively at Aintree (soft) on Boxing Day last year.
ADMIRALTY HOUSE - 4.40 Wincanton
ADMIRALTY HOUSE lacks a recent run but a lot of Alan King's jumpers appear to have hit the ground running and he could be worth chancing despite the 21-month layoff. He won a juvenile hurdle at Kempton (almost exactly) two years ago and filled the runner-up spot in his two subsequent appearances. He's been eased a couple of pounds in the ratings following his time away and might be able to take full advantage, especially as the forecast strong pace on here should help a free-going sort like him.
FISCAL POLICY - 6.30 Southwell
Ruth Carr's FISCAL POLICY looks worth another chance off his revised mark of 71, having got no sort of run over this course and distance at Southwell earlier in the month. Raised just 3lb for his half-length victory at Pontefract in September, the chestnut son of Profitable got no run whatsoever in his follow-up bid, ultimately being brought home in his own time after being hampered around a furlong from home. The reopposing Spirit Of Applause was also caught up in the same traffic in that race and finished ahead of Fiscal Policy in third, but the latter is fancied to turn the tables with a clear passage.
PROFITMAN - 6.15 Chelmsford
Stall nine of 11 may not be absolutely ideal but otherwise PROFITMAN has plenty going for him and is fancied to get the job done on balance. He won twice over this trip back in the spring, including once at this track, and was back to form with a neck second over course and distance late last month. He's gone up 1lb to 55 but was placed off 59 (when sent off 4/5 favourite) at Wolverhampton earlier in the year so it would be surprising if the assessor has him exactly where he wants him.
