Exeter Racing Tips & Predictions – Tuesday 7th April 2026
Seven races at Exeter today and, while the racecard’s missing official distance/going/prize fields in the feed, we’ve still got plenty to work with for proper Exeter racing tips: ratings, topspeed, current form, and crucially a full set of live odds for every race. The standout angle is obvious — there are a couple of short-priced favourites who look properly solid, plus one cracking little three-runner chase where the market might be overreacting.
Course form matters at Exeter, especially on a stiff, honest track that finds out the weak finishers. Our data analysis flags Saint Cyr De Pail as the headline course specialist (6 runs here, 2 wins, 50% placed), while Windance (66.67% placed from 3 runs) has been knocking about the places. There’s also an oddball stat I love: Alderley Charlie is 0-from-4 for wins at Exeter but has a 100% place rate — the definition of “always there, never quite”. Let’s get stuck in.

14:10 – Happy Birthday Fiona Walker Novices’ Handicap Hurdle
Race Details: Distance | Class 5 | Going | Prize Money | Jumps
This is a proper 13-runner Class 5 novice handicap hurdle — in other words, you need a clear idea and a price. The market has latched onto Urban Isle at 3/1 and I can see why: he’s got a workable mark (92) and is the only runner in the top two of the market with a recent topspeed that doesn’t scream “one-paced” (55 is fine for this level). But there are a few with eye-catching figures on our data: Man Oh Man has the best topspeed in the field (93), Vengeance has 87, and Blue In The West posted 84 and has solid Exeter experience (4 runs here). Plenty of these have P’s and poor recent finishes, so I’m prioritising upside and price.
Top Selections
WIN – Urban Isle (Jonathan Burke | Hughie Morrison | Form: 83-587 | Rating: 92 | Draw: | Weight: 161 | Age: 5)
I’m with Urban Isle. At around 3/1 with Bet365 he’s not a “steal”, but he’s the one who looks most like a horse rather than a survivor. Hughie Morrison has strong Exeter numbers in our course data (28.57% win rate), and Burke is exactly the sort of jockey you want in a messy novice handicap: calm, accurate, no panic. The form isn’t pretty on paper, but he’s only five and has more scope than the older exposed types. In this grade, a mark of 92 can absolutely win if you turn up and jump clean.
EACH-WAY – Vengeance (Conor O’Farrell | Jimmy Frost | Form: 06/P45 | Rating: 95 | Draw: | Weight: 157 | Age: 8)
At 7/1 with Bet365, Vengeance makes a lot more each-way appeal than some of the “sexier” names. Our data has him on a hefty topspeed of 87, which is right up there for this field and suggests he’s still capable of running a proper race when things click. He’s not bombproof (that’s putting it politely), but this is Class 5 and plenty of these won’t handle any pressure when it gets serious turning in. If O’Farrell can get him into a rhythm, he’s one of the few who can travel and finish.
Danger: Blue In The West is a course regular and has enough raw speed (topspeed 84) to nick a place if he behaves.

Betting Strategy
Big field, so keep it simple. Urban Isle is the “most likely” winner, but it’s not a race to go mad on. Play Vengeance each-way with 4 places on offer, because he’s one of the few with a proper topspeed figure for this grade. If you’re hunting a pure price angle, Man Oh Man (best topspeed) is interesting but too risky to make a main selection off this data alone.

14:40 – Travel Incentive For British Buyers Novices’ Selling Hurdle
Race Details: Distance | Class 4 | Going | Prize Money | Jumps
This is a seller, but it doesn’t take a genius to spot it’s basically Madame De Labrunie versus the rest. She’s the only one with a proper rating in the field (112) and she’s already shown a level of consistency the others can only dream of. Most of her rivals have either zeros in the form line, non-completions, or missing ratings entirely. In a race like this, I want the horse who has proven she can run to a figure, not one who “might improve”. The only real debate is whether you take the short price or use her as a banker in multiples. For place purposes, Knight Of Magic is the obvious “best of the others” at 10/3, simply because he’s second in the betting and the race doesn’t have depth.
Top Selections
WIN – Madame De Labrunie (Jonathan Burke | Fergal O’Brien | Form: 149364 | Rating: 112 | Draw: | Weight: 145 | Age: 4)
She’s 4/9 everywhere and, honestly, it’s hard to argue. Madame De Labrunie has the best rating (112) and the best topspeed (76) on our data — and it’s not close. Fergal O’Brien knows exactly how to win these sorts of races, and Burke is a serious upgrade in a seller where plenty will be ridden like they’re out for an afternoon. She doesn’t need to improve to win; she just needs to turn up and do her job. For Exeter racing tips, this is your “get out of jail” option.
EACH-WAY – Knight Of Magic (Sean Bowen | James Owen | Form: 8560-P | Rating: | Draw: | Weight: 157 | Age: 7)
I’m not pretending he’s a world-beater, but Knight Of Magic at 10/3 with Bet365 is the most logical each-way play because the rest of these look like they’re here to learn (or to be sold). Sean Bowen is a major positive — he’s busy at Exeter and our data has him placing plenty here (58.74% place rate). With 3 places on the each-way terms, you’re effectively betting against the outsiders completing with any purpose. If the favourite does what she should, this lad can still pick up the scraps.

| Sharp Tor | 50/1 | 40/1 | 40/1 | 50/1 | 50/1 | 50/1 | 50/1 |
Betting Strategy
Either you take the 4/9 as a banker, or you don’t bet the win market at all. I’m fine with Madame De Labrunie in multiples. For a single-race bet, Knight Of Magic each-way makes sense with 3 places — you’re basically asking him to be less awful than a bunch of outsiders.

Race Details: Distance | Class 4 | Going | Prize Money | Jumps
Only five runners, which means no each-way messing — just pick the winner. On our data, Western Cross looks the class angle: top rating in the race (119) and an outstanding topspeed (117) that’s miles clear of anything else on the page. The market has Arnie Moon favourite (best 5/4) after winning last time (490361), and I respect that — he’s in form, Joe Tickle runners can be tough, and his topspeed of 95 is solid. But if Western Cross runs to his best figure, he’s simply the best horse in the race. At 5/2 with Skybet, the price is there to be taken.
Top Selections
WIN – Western Cross (Sean Houlihan | Philip Hobbs & Johnson White | Form: 29344 | Rating: 119 | Draw: | Weight: 161 | Age: 5)
I’m calling it: Western Cross rates the clear pick on numbers. That 117 topspeed is the standout figure of the entire day on this Exeter card, and he’s also top-rated (119). Yes, his recent form reads like an honest sort rather than a serial winner, but this is a small field and that can play right into a strong traveller’s hands — no traffic, no nonsense, just a proper race. Hobbs & Johnson White know how to place one, and at 5/2 with Skybet you’re being paid to oppose the favourite. I’m doing that.

Betting Strategy
Small field: make one strong call. Western Cross win is the bet, and the value is the key — he’s bigger in the market than his rating/topspeed say he should be. If you’re playing forecasts, Arnie Moon is the obvious saver for second, but as a straight bet I’m siding with the numbers.

15:40 – Ludo Sports & Live Lounge “Junior” National Hunt Flat Race (GBB Race)
Race Details: Distance | Class 5 | Going | Prize Money | Jumps
Six-runner bumper, which usually screams “take a view, don’t take a bath”. The market has Horethorne favourite at 13/8 despite no form shown in our feed — that tells you the money is coming on reputation/yard confidence rather than what we can measure today. From the runners with actual numbers attached, Bannerdown is the standout: rating 94 and topspeed 55 after finishing fourth on debut. Jukella has a handy pull in the weights (149) and is 4/1, while Triple Edge posted a 51 topspeed. On a track like Exeter, I want something that looks like it’ll stay and handle a proper gallop, not a flashy type likely to be caught out off the bridle.
Top Selections
WIN – Bannerdown (Tom Bellamy | Keiran Burke | Form: 4 | Rating: 94 | Draw: | Weight: 156 | Age: 4)
Bannerdown is the solid option. He’s 11/4 with Paddy Power and that’s fair when you consider he’s got the best rating (94) in the field and the best topspeed (55) among those with a recorded figure. More importantly, he’s already had a day at the office — that fourth gives him a practical edge over at least one of these. Bellamy is a cool bumper rider and won’t get into a silly duel. In these Exeter bumpers, the one who keeps finding tends to be the one you want, and Bannerdown looks the most reliable engine.
EACH-WAY – Jukella (Robert Dunne | Tom Weston | Form: 6 | Rating: 87 | Draw: | Weight: 149 | Age: 4)
I’ll take Jukella each-way at 4/1 with Bet365. She’s got a lower rating (87) and modest topspeed (40), but that 7lb weight allowance versus the principals could matter if this turns into a test late. Tom Weston does well with his Exeter runners in our trainer notes (20% win rate, 80% place rate), which is exactly the kind of stat I want when the form is thin. With two places on offer, you’re really just asking her to travel a bit better than one or two of the likely improvers.

Betting Strategy
Keep stakes sensible. Bannerdown win is the “form and figures” bet. If you want a bit of cover with the each-way place terms, Jukella each-way makes sense on weight and a trainer with strong Exeter place data. I’m not piling into Horethorne at 13/8 off reputation alone.

16:10 – It Pays To Buy Irish Novices’ Handicap Chase
Race Details: Distance | Class 5 | Going | Prize Money | Jumps
Ten-runner novice handicap chase — these can be carnage, especially if a couple of sketchy jumpers turn it into a scramble. The market is tight at the top, but our data leans strongly towards Carrigmoorna Rowan as the classiest on a figure: rating 108 and topspeed 102. The issue is he’s nine and looks exposed; he’s been running consistently without winning (P24445). Prairie Queen is the in-form placer (344532) but her topspeed is only 64, suggesting she’s grinding rather than quickening. At the very top of the weights, Loki’s Mischief is prominent in the market, but we don’t have a rating or topspeed in this feed. This is a race for measured confidence, not blind faith.
Top Selections
WIN – Carrigmoorna Rowan (Sean Bowen | Ryan Potter | Form: P24445 | Rating: 108 | Draw: | Weight: 166 | Age: 9)
Robin Goodfellow isn’t shy of a punt and he’s sided with Carrigmoorna Rowan — I’m with him. At 9/2 with Bet365 he’s the best blend of market respect and hard data: top-rated (108) and a 102 topspeed that none of the other rated runners match. Bowen is a big positive at Exeter (58.74% place rate in our course notes) and he’s the sort to keep this lad out of trouble. Yes, he’s not been winning, but in novice chases, being solid and straightforward is half the battle.
EACH-WAY – Majestic Moment (Bryan Carver | D Summersby | Form: 045814 | Rating: 101 | Draw: | Weight: 155 | Age: 7)
Majestic Moment at 7/1 with Bet365 is the value each-way swing. He’s got a useful topspeed of 98 and a workable mark (101), and the big thing is he’s shown he can win recently (the ‘1’ in 045814). Carver’s Exeter stats are healthy in our data (16.8% win, 53.6% place), and that matters when others will make rookie errors. If this turns into a messy jumping test, he’s exactly the type who can pick up pieces late and run into the frame.

Note: In the odds feed, some names are formatted slightly differently (e.g. “Lokis Mischief”, “Land Girls Luck”, “Poets Reflection”, “Hellstopatthetop”), so bookmaker columns may appear blank here for those runners.
Betting Strategy
This is the kind of race where you don’t need to get fancy. Carrigmoorna Rowan win is the most defensible bet on figures and rider. Majestic Moment each-way is the value angle at a workable 7/1 with 3 places. I’d keep stakes medium — novice chases can bite you.

Race Details: Distance | Class 4 | Going | Prize Money | Jumps
Three-runner race, and that changes everything: no each-way, no hiding place, and tactics can turn it into a farce if they crawl. The betting says Dyno Dave (6/5) versus Mahler Moon (7/4) with Saint Cyr De Pail the 3/1 outsider. On our numbers, it’s actually Saint Cyr De Pail who’s top-rated (124) and he’s a proper Exeter operator too: 6 runs here, 2 wins, 50% placed. Dyno Dave has the second-best topspeed (107) and is on a fair mark (115). Mahler Moon is rated 118 and arrives off a win last time (P223P1). Brilliant little race — and not as simple as the market implies.
Top Selections
WIN – Saint Cyr De Pail (Ciaran Gethings | Jane Williams | Form: F414U3 | Rating: 124 | Draw: | Weight: 156 | Age: 7)
I’m taking the view that the market has this wrong. Saint Cyr De Pail is 3/1 across the board, yet he’s top-rated at 124 and is the best course specialist in this entire preview: 2 wins from 6 at Exeter and a 50% place rate. Yes, he’s got a “U” in the recent form, so you’re buying a bit of risk — but in a three-runner chase, ability and course comfort can trump “neat profiles”. Jane Williams’ Exeter numbers are solid (19.18% win rate in our trainer notes). If he jumps, he wins.

| Saint Cyr De Pail | 3/1 | 3/1 | 3/1 | 3/1 | 3/1 | 3/1 | 3/1 |
Betting Strategy
With only three runners, keep it to a single win bet. Saint Cyr De Pail at 3/1 is the value call on rating and course record. If you’re risk-averse, you can see why Dyno Dave is favourite, but from a pure “price versus data” angle, the outsider is the play.

17:10 – Totnes And Bridgetown Races Company Ltd Open Hunters’ Chase
Race Details: Distance | Class 4 | Going | Prize Money | Jumps
Hunters’ chase time, and the market is screaming one thing: Macklin. He’s 8/13 best price and has a huge rating edge on our data (131) with a 102 topspeed. Two declared non-runners are listed (Mr Glass, Corporal Jackjones), which tightens the race further. Stumps Or Slips has a serious recent profile (11162F) and carries the big weight (174), while Franco De Port (125 rating) is the obvious danger at 7/2. There are some massive prices elsewhere, including Windance at 50/1 — interesting only because he’s placed in two of three Exeter runs (66.67% place rate), even if he’s not the force of old on our raw numbers.
Top Selections
WIN – Macklin (Mr Joshua Newman | Will Biddick | Form: 1/1/31 | Rating: 131 | Draw: | Weight: 170 | Age: 10)
Macklin is short for a reason and I’m not here to be clever for the sake of it. He’s the top-rated runner by a street (131) and he’s got the best topspeed in the race (102). In hunters, class and proven ability matter more than people like to admit — plenty of these can’t go with a proper horse when the taps are turned on. Newman also has decent Exeter stats in our data (13.95% win, 48.84% place), and he’ll know exactly what he’s got under him. At 8/13 with Betfair, he’s a banker if you’re building bets.
EACH-WAY – Franco De Port (Mr Daniel Williams | Miss Nikki Henton | Form: 33/8/3 | Rating: 125 | Draw: | Weight: 166 | Age: 11)
If you want an each-way option, it’s Franco De Port at 7/2 with Bet365. He’s the only one who looks remotely capable of making Macklin work on the figures — a 125 rating gives him a fighting chance, and he’s got a bit of tactical flexibility in a race where some are exposed plodders. With 3 places on offer, you’re not reinventing the wheel: you’re backing him to do the sensible thing and hit the frame. At the prices, he’s the clear “value place” bet.

Betting Strategy
Macklin is the straight win banker. If you’re playing the race as a standalone and want to reduce variance, Franco De Port each-way with 3 places is perfectly sensible. I’m happy to oppose Stumps Or Slips at 5/1 purely on value — he might run well, but Macklin’s rating edge is glaring.

Summary & Best Bets
That’s the Exeter card: a couple of races you can be bullish about, and a couple where you should accept variance and play the prices. The strongest “numbers meet price” angle on the day is Western Cross at 5/2 — top-rated (119) and miles clear on topspeed (117) in a five-runner race. For Exeter racing tips purposes, he’s my NAP.
Banker is obviously Madame De Labrunie at 4/9 in the seller — she’s the only runner with standout rating (112) and topspeed (76) and looks hard to oppose. The Best Value Bet is Saint Cyr De Pail at 3/1 in the three-runner chase: top-rated (124) and a proper Exeter specialist (2 wins from 6 here). And if you want an Each-Way Special, I’ll stick with Majestic Moment at 7/1 in the novice chase — a recent winner profile and a 98 topspeed gives him a real chance of hitting the frame.
Use these Exeter racing tips to build a sensible staking plan: one confident win bet, one banker, and one each-way value play. That’s how you get through a tricky jumps card without donating to the bookies.
