Why will horse racing NAP of the Day Sonigino win?
A 4lb rise for his course and distance win earlier in the month may not be enough to stop SONIGINO going in again at Chepstow races today for Ditcheat. This five-year-old gelding is part-owned by Sir Alex Ferguson and bested a couple of mares here 19 days ago.
Sonigino won twice in France before joining Nicholls. Off the back of that, his new connections pitched him in at Listed level during Haydock’s Betfair Chase card on stable and UK debut last November. The son of It’s Gino was far from disgraced when running up to top betting sites‘ market expectations in third.
Nicholls soon sent Sonigino handicapping. While he didn’t better that reappearance effort, the pick of his form and horse racing results reads reasonably well. A fifth place effort behind subsequent Grade 2 scorer Tommy’s Oscar and Geronimo, who has won five times over fences this year, doesn’t look too shabby.
With Sonigino settling better on his return to action, and Nicholls boasting a 28 per cent strike rate with his Chepstow runners in the last five seasons, everything looks in place for a big run. He just had to be our horse racing NAP of the Day for 26 October. A £10 punt on Sonigino with 888Sport returns £23.75 at his current odds.

Timeforatune overpriced on hurdles debut at Chepstow
Given Nicholls’ fine record at this venue, TIMEFORATUNE looks a big price to win his hurdles bow earlier on the card. This six-year-old Yorgunnabelucky gelding showed plenty of ability in bumpers last season, winning three of his four starts including one here. Timeforatune then completed a hat-trick in a Listed race at Cheltenham.
Back in third that day was Aucunrisque, who has landed five of his seven subsequent starts including a Grade 2 novice hurdle at Kempton Park races and his chase debut around Uttoxeter. Timeforatune had to give weight all-round on his final National Hunt Flat race outing in another Listed event at Newbury, so a line can be put through that.
Nicholls brings a 32 per cent strike rate with his runners over the last fortnight into today, so the yard has made its customary fine start to the core jumps season. All of the best horse racing betting sites know that, yet Timeforatune looks overpriced to win on reappearance here.
Given connections, and his fine bumper form, he rates the NB bet to our horse racing NAP of the Day, Sonigino. A £10 bet on Timeforatune with 888Sport returns £55 at his current odds. New customers who sign up and put such a wager on qualify for £40 in bonuses with more information to follow…
