16:50 Redcar Tips — Monday 20th April 2026

For the 16:50 at Redcar, our confident main selection is **Hill O Rue** (EVS). This four-year-old, expertly handled by Kevin Ryan, enters the race in career-best form, having delivered a commanding victory last time out. That recent win is a crucial trend, showcasing a horse who is thriving and full of confidence, ready to build on that success. Furthermore, a closer look at his profile reveals remarkable consistency; he’s been placed in three of his last five runs, demonstrating his ability to be competitive in a variety of contests.

Carrying an Official Rating of 64, and with jockey Oisin McSweeney in the plate, this young four-year-old still has significant scope for further improvement. A recent win at this stage of his development suggests he’s only going to get better, and we fully expect him to continue his upward trajectory here. The EVS price perfectly encapsulates his clear credentials and makes him a formidable proposition.

For punters seeking an each-way alternative, **Nicator** warrants consideration and could prove to be value for a minor placing.
