Last time out, our nap Gavriel was beaten. On to today.
Here are today's Twister Tipster IQ selections, built from our IQ ratings and checked against my own reading of the form.
🏇 NAP: Handani (13/2)
4:42 Leopardstown, Bahrain Turf Club October Handicap
Stake: 1 pt each way
Each way terms: 1/5 odds, 5 places with Unibet.
Handani is our top-rated runner in this handicap flat, with an IQ rating of 80 and a 35% IQ chance (confidence: High). He has won over this trip before, and comes from a stable that's flying right now, and has won on good ground, and has won at this distance. Best price 13/2 with Unibet at the time of writing.
