Racing tips: Newsboy's Wednesday Nap and Catterick, Kempton, Lingfield, Nottingham picks

Let's go Ed first to Catterick and back KHURUMBI (4.20) to get off the mark on her handicap debut.

The thrice-raced maiden, trained by Ed Bethell, was fourth on his racing debut at Newcastle over six furlongs in November and stepped up on that effort when just three-quarters of a length behind winner Sip and Smile back on the same course and distance in February.

The three-year-old improved again to finish second of 12 to Majeski Man in a six-furlong maiden at Wolverhampton last month. And, although she was no match for the winner, she was nearly five lengths clear of the rest of the field.

With cheekpieces on for the first time today and with capable apprentice jockey William Pyle taking 7lb off, Khurumbi looks on a decent handicap mark to land the Racing Again 20th April handicap.

At Kempton, the Tom Clover-trained JUNGLE RUN (6.00) is the pick in the seven-furlong Visit racingtohelpukraine.uk To Help Handicap.

The three year-old has progressed hugely over the last few months, following up victory at Wolverhampton after four months off in November, with an imperious display at Chelmsford last week.

My selection made virtually all before romping home by seven lengths, easing down, from Henery Hawk. He can win again despite a 6lb penalty.
