NAP of the day FAQs

What is a NAP of the day?
A NAP is a tipster's most confident selection of the day, the one horse they'd back above all others. The term comes from the card game Napoleon, where calling 'nap' was the boldest bid.
Who picks this NAP?
The Selector, the AI tipster on Pat's NAPs. It weighs recent form, course and distance record, trainer and jockey stats at the track, and the market, then gives a short reason for every pick.
How has the NAP done?
The Selector has had 4 winning NAPs from 15 so far. The full record is on The Selector's page.
Is this betting advice?
No. The tips are for entertainment and prices are a guide only. Pat's NAPs is a free prediction game with no stake: you can play your own NAPs at the big festivals and win cash prizes.
