13:57 Newbury Tips — Friday 17th April 2026

Our confident selection for the 13:57 at Newbury is the highly touted **Romeo Guest**, trained by the shrewd Jack Channon. Priced at a prohibitive 1/10, he looks exceptionally difficult to oppose on Good ground, with conditions ideal for him to showcase his talent. Romeo Guest breaks from stall 1 in this ten-runner contest – a crucial advantage. Historically, a low draw at Newbury has proven significant, allowing horses to secure a prime rail position and conserve energy, which can make all the difference for a hot favourite looking to dictate proceedings.

While Romeo Guest is expected to win comfortably, for those seeking an Each-Way alternative with better odds, **Rickys Rocket** offers some appeal. He has shown glimpses of ability that could see him sneak into the places. Our focus, however, remains firmly on Romeo Guest. He's primed to deliver a polished performance and is fully expected to justify his short price with a dominant display.
