Turning seven today, Tommy’s Oscar has hit some real form this winter with consecutive wins at Haydock and Doncaster. A course and distance winner, the Oscar gelding represents trainer Ann Hamilton and her husband Ian, who owns this horse. A 3lb rise in his rating is offset by the booking of a 7lb claimer, so Tommy’s Oscar rates the NAP of the Day this Saturday for his hat-trick. Read even more reasons to back him as the top Bet of the Day with our tipsters making a detailed case.

Why will NAP of the Day Tommy’s Oscar win?
A magnificent servant to his modest connections, Tommy’s Oscar proved he stayed further at Haydock, so won’t be lacking the stamina for a battle. Hamilton boasts an incredible 50 per cent strike rate with her Musselburgh runners over the last five seasons. Backing them blind would have yielded a tidy £15.13 profit off a £1 level stake.
Tommy’s Oscar has won six of his 11 hurdles outings, placed in a bumper and ran a number of fine races in Irish Points. He completed a hat-trick around this time last year with a 10-length romp over course and distance. That followed wins at Sedgefield and Newcastle. Although now almost two stone higher in the weights, Tommy’s Oscar has earned a lofty mark of 150 on the track.
He was far from disgraced when runner-up in the Scottish Supreme Trial here or when sixth in the Morebattle Hurdle over 2m 2f at Kelso. Tommy’s Oscar then landed his next start there and came a fine third in the Grade 2 Scottish Champion Hurdle. He had Welsh Champion Hurdle hero and Christmas Hurdle runner-up Glory And Fortune in-behind down the field.
As Tommy’s Oscar has kept on improving and comes here seeking a hat-trick, horse racing betting sites fear him. Tom Midgley now takes the ride and a valuable 7lb off with his claim. Taking it into account, Tommy’s Oscar is 4lb below his last winning mark. A £25 punt on him returns £93.75 if he wins at his current price. Should Tommy’s Oscar fail to land the hat-trick, then QuinnBet refund losing stakes as a free bet.
