Free, honest horse racing tips — driven by data

I’m David Shaw and this is my attempt at horse racing tips done properly: driven by data, tracked in full, and completely free. Every morning my model rates every runner on the UK and Irish cards on recent form, the market and speed figures, and the horses that stand out become the tips above — led by the Nap of the Day, my single most confident pick.

What I think sets this apart from most tipster sites is simple: nothing is hidden. The one selection I’ve found a genuine, out-of-sample edge on is the Nap; everything else I publish for interest and label clearly where it isn’t a proven money-maker. You can check my rating for every runner in every race, and every past pick — win or lose — on the results and pick record pages. More about how it all works →

Frequently asked questions

What horse racing tips do you post each day?

Every day I post a Nap of the Day, a Daily Double and a Daily Trixie, a set of value picks and a Lucky 15 — plus my rating and rank for every runner in every UK and Irish race.

Are your horse racing tips free?

Completely free. There is no premium tier, no paid tipster service and no catch — just the tips, the full ratings and an openly tracked record.

What time are today's tips posted?

They're published every morning and lock once posted, so what you see stays put for the day. The Nap of the Day also goes out free by email and on X before racing.

What makes these tips different from other tipster sites?

They're generated by my own data ratings rather than opinion, and every pick is settled honestly at Starting Price with the losers shown. Most tipster sites quietly hide their losers — this one publishes the whole record.

Do you cover Irish racing as well as UK?

Yes — I rate every runner across both UK and Irish cards every day, and the tips can come from either.
