13:47 – Nora Canty Mares Maiden Hurdle
Race Details: 2m | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places | | jumps
This looks a fairly informative mares’ maiden rather than a throwaway opener, with a couple bringing solid placed hurdle form and one or two lurking as possible improvers. Salsinha sets the standard on the figures after her recent second and she has the profile of a mare who should be winning this sort of race sooner rather than later. Willie Mullins fields both Poetisa and Wonderful Everyday, and while the market will take them seriously, neither arrives with quite the same straightforward appeal as the favourite. Hillhead Runner has enough back form to get involved if bouncing back, while Tumbling In is the type who could step forward again after only two starts. It is not impossible to solve, but there are enough unknowns to make the each-way angle worth considering.
Top Selections
1. Salsinha – 5/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Darragh O’keeffe | Trainer: Henry De Bromhead | Form: 1434-2 | Rating: 125 | Topspeed: 116
Salsinha brings the clearest and strongest recent hurdle form into the race. That latest second reads well in the context of an ordinary maiden, and her overall profile suggests she has been knocking firmly on the door rather than flattering to deceive. A mark of 125 and topspeed figure of 116 put her comfortably on top of what has been achieved so far, and this sharp enough 2m on decent ground should hold no fears. Henry De Bromhead’s mare does not need much guesswork attached to her, which is more than can be said for several rivals. At 5/4 she is no giveaway, but she is the one they all have to beat here. Bet type: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Tumbling In – 12/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Sean Flanagan | Trainer: E McNamara | Form: 43- | Rating: | Topspeed:
Tumbling In makes some each-way appeal in a race where a few of the obvious dangers are either short enough or a little frustrating. She has only had two starts and the bare form of 43- says she has at least shown ability without being knocked about by experience. In this sort of mares’ maiden, that can be a useful angle because there is room for a chunk of improvement from one season to the next. Sean Flanagan is a positive booking for a yard that can place one to pick up prize money in these events, and 12/1 looks fair if she can take the expected step forward from her return. Bet type: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Salsinha is the percentage call and makes most appeal as the win bet given she sets the form standard by a clear margin. For those looking beyond the favourite, Tumbling In is the each-way punt at double-figure odds in a 14-runner field. Poetisa and Wonderful Everyday are the obvious dangers, while Hillhead Runner could outrun her price if returning to her better efforts.

14:22 – Southern Waste Management Mares Handicap Hurdle
Race Details: 2m | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places | | jumps
This looks a fairly workable mares’ handicap rather than a deep one, and there are a few with something to prove. Mo Ghille Mar arrives off a win and is the obvious starting point despite top weight, while Western Princess is interesting for Willie Mullins off a lowly mark if putting that latest fall behind her. Diamond Tipp has bits of form that make her competitive, but she ended last season on a flat note, and several others such as Mollys Star and Cool Summer need to find a little more than they have shown recently. Over 2m on this ground, a clean jumper with tactical speed should be well served, and that may well be enough to separate the principals from the rest in what looks a slightly trappy but not especially strong contest.
Top Selections
1. Mo Ghille Mar – 9/4 with Bet365
Jockey: G B Noonan | Trainer: John Joseph Hanlon | Form: 0606-1 | Rating: 113 | Topspeed: 90
She is the one coming here with momentum after getting her head in front last time, and in a race where plenty have either gone stale or are returning with questions to answer, that counts for plenty. A mark of 113 looks fair enough judged on that latest effort, and while carrying 166lb is no gift around Listowel, this is not packed with unexposed lurkers. Hanlon’s mare is only five, so there is every chance there is a bit more to come, and her profile is simply more convincing than most of these. At 9/4 she is not a giveaway, but she still makes the most sense as the solid win play.
Bet: WIN
2. Western Princess – 7/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Brian Hayes | Trainer: W P Mullins | Form: /835-F | Rating: 103 | Topspeed: 76
There is a bit more risk attached here, but there is also upside from a mark of just 103 for a Mullins-trained mare in a race of this standard. Her recent form figures are untidy enough, and the fall last time is obviously not ideal, yet she had shown signs beforehand that she was capable of getting involved off this sort of rating. With just 158lb on her back and Brian Hayes booked, she does not need to improve massively to hit the frame in a 10-runner handicap lacking depth. Available at 7/2, she is not exactly hidden, but she still looks the best each-way alternative to the favourite.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Mo Ghille Mar is the straightforward win bet because she brings the best recent piece of form into a race where reliability is thin on the ground. Western Princess is the each-way punt, chiefly because her mark gives her a chance if she jumps round cleanly. Diamond Tipp is the obvious danger if back to her earlier consistency, while Mollys Star is not dismissed at bigger odds.

14:57 – Join Racing TV With A Free Trial Now Handicap Hurdle
Race Details: 2m | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places | | jumps
This looks a properly competitive little handicap rather than a race full of lurking plot jobs, and the market has it about right with only a handful making serious appeal. Putapoundinthejar is the obvious one on raw ability but he does come here needing to prove he can translate a lofty mark into a win in this sphere. Wholelotofbusiness appeals as the solid yardstick after a respectable comeback third, while Becasse remains interesting for Henry De Bromhead despite that latest unseat. Bossing It is the lurker at the foot of the weights after a much better effort last time and could easily get involved if building on that. In a nine-runner field over this sharpish trip, a clean round and tactical position are likely to decide it.
Top Selections
1. Wholelotofbusiness – 4/1 with Bet365
Jockey: G B Noonan | Trainer: Eoin Christopher McCarthy | Form: 2120-3 | Rating: 128 | Topspeed: 113
He makes plenty of appeal in a race where some of the principals still have a question or two hanging over them. That return to action when third reads well enough in the context of this contest, and his earlier 2120 spell showed he was holding his form in decent handicaps. Off 128 he looks workable, his Topspeed figure is strong for the grade, and he arrives here with fewer negatives than most. McCarthy also runs Fast Felix, but this one looks the yard’s more convincing option on current evidence. At 4/1, he’s not being missed, but he still rates the percentage call. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Bossing It – 8/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Josh Williamson | Trainer: David M O’Brien | Form: 07P0-2 | Rating: 131 | Topspeed: 117
He’s the each-way angle because that latest second was a big step back in the right direction and hinted that he may just be coming to hand now. The standout here is the weight: he gets in with just 140 and that can be a serious asset in a race where several rivals are lumping plenty more. His overall profile is patchy, no point pretending otherwise, but the ability is there and a Topspeed of 117 says he’s capable of being very competitive if reproducing it. In a nine-runner race with three places on offer, 8/1 looks fair for a horse who could easily outrun his price. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Wholelotofbusiness is the straightforward win play; he brings the most reliable recent profile and looks set for a big run again. Bossing It is the each-way punt, largely because of that feather weight and the promise of his latest second. Putapoundinthejar is the obvious danger on class, while Becasse is respected if avoiding errors, but both make slightly less appeal from a punting perspective.

15:32 – John B. Keane Beginners Chase
Race Details: 2m 3f | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places | | jumps
This doesn’t look a deep beginners’ chase on paper and, for all there are seven declared, it revolves heavily around Whispering Willow. Gavin Cromwell’s 5yo brings the standout rating, the best topspeed figure and arrives on the back of a win followed by a solid placed effort, which is a fair bit stronger than most of these can boast. Tropical Image is the obvious one to give chase on the figures and gets in off a lower weight, while Knockbrack Rambler is the one at a bigger price if taking to fences sparks some life. The rest have plenty to prove on recent form, with exposed profiles and modest ratings making this feel more like a race for the favourite to lose than a fiendish punting puzzle.
Top Selections
1. Whispering Willow – 4/7 with Bet365
Jockey: Keith Donoghue | Trainer: Gavin Cromwell | Form: 086-13 | Rating: 99 | Topspeed: 92
He is the class angle and, frankly, hard to oppose. A mark of 99 puts him clear of these, and that 92 topspeed figure is miles in front of anything else in the line-up. The recent form also stands out: he got his head in front before following up with a respectable third, and that level is more than enough to make him the one they all have to beat if he takes to chasing in straightforward fashion. Keith Donoghue is an eye-catching booking and Cromwell doesn’t waste bullets in races like this. At 4/7 he is no giveaway, but he still looks the most solid win proposition in the race. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Knockbrack Rambler – 17/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Phillip Enright | Trainer: Brendan Maurice Walsh | Form: P858P- | Rating: 83 | Topspeed: 70
You have to forgive plenty, because the recent form figures are hardly pretty, but this is not a race loaded with dependable alternatives and he is one of the few at a workable each-way price who could outrun the market. That topspeed of 70 is respectable enough in the context of this field, and an opening chase assignment against modest opposition could easily bring about some improvement. Phillip Enright is the sort of rider you want in a race that may turn tactical, and at 17/2 with only seven runners he makes more appeal than several shorter-priced rivals with equally shaky profiles. He’s not bombproof, but he looks the value each-way play. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Whispering Willow is the clear win bet and the one to keep things simple with, as his figures tower over this ordinary beginners’ chase. For those wanting something at a price, Knockbrack Rambler is the each-way punt in a race lacking depth behind the favourite. Tropical Image is the obvious danger if running to his mark.

16:07 – John J. Galvin Chase
Race Details: 2m 3f | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places | | jumps
This is a compact but pretty informative little chase, and the market has understandably centred on Blood Destiny and Jesse Evans. Blood Destiny brings the sexy profile from Closutton and is the obvious class act if returning in the same mood, while Jesse Evans sets a solid standard on the figures and rarely runs a bad race in this sort of company. Classic Getaway is the other Mullins runner and is interesting back in a small field where his jumping may come under less pressure, while Eagle Fang looks the one most likely to nick some place money if the principals underperform. It is not a deep race, but it is not a gimme for the favourite either, because there is enough battle-hardened opposition here to punish any rustiness.
Top Selections
1. Jesse Evans – 11/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Sam Ewing | Trainer: Noel Meade | Form: 2225-3 | Rating: 163 | Topspeed: 144
He makes plenty of appeal in a race where the favourite may end up a shade shorter than he ought to be. Jesse Evans has the best rating in the field, the strongest Topspeed figure too, and his profile is that of a seasoned, reliable operator who keeps turning up and running to his mark. That latest 3 suggests he has come back in decent heart, and this 2m3f on good ground looks right in his lane. Sam Ewing knows him well, and Noel Meade’s veteran has fewer questions to answer than most. At 11/4, he looks the percentage call against a Mullins hotpot returning from a break. Bet type: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Eagle Fang – 5/1 with Paddy Power
Jockey: Philip Byrnes | Trainer: William Durkan | Form: 1572-2 | Rating: 151 | Topspeed: 124
If you want an each-way play in a six-runner race with two places on offer, Eagle Fang is the sensible one. He lacks the raw class of the top pair on official figures, but his recent form reads well enough and that latest second says he is arriving here in nick. As a 6yo, he still has a bit more scope than some of these exposed older chasers, and he doesn’t need to improve massively to get involved if one of the Mullins runners blows out. Philip Byrnes takes over for William Durkan, and 5/1 feels fair for a horse who looks the likeliest to hit the frame and could do better than that. Bet type: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Jesse Evans is the win play because he brings the most dependable combination of form, rating and race fitness. For those wanting a saver at a bigger price, Eagle Fang is the each-way punt with two places available and a solid recent run behind him. Blood Destiny is the obvious danger on pure ability, while Classic Getaway is not one to dismiss if he gets into a rhythm early.

16:42 – Beasley Engineering Hunters Chase
Race Details: 2m 7f | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places | | jumps
This is a proper hunters’ chase rather than a penalty kick, with a solid favourite in Solitary Man but enough depth behind him to make things interesting. Emmet Bolger’s runner arrives off a win and his figures stack up well, especially on topspeed, but he does have to concede weight all round. What Path looks the chief threat after shaping well on his return, while Hunt Away is the unexposed one in the line-up and could still have a bit more to give at this trip. Ambitious Fellow has the back-class to get involved if taking to this sphere smoothly, and Asphalt Cowboy comes here in good heart after scoring last time. It’s a competitive race, but not an impossible one to solve.
Top Selections
1. Solitary Man – 2/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Mr J M Halford | Trainer: E Bolger | Form: 3494-1 | Rating: 135 | Topspeed: 122
Solitary Man is the one they all have to beat. That latest win put him right at the head of the pecking order here and, crucially, his overall profile is more reliable than most of these. A mark of 135 is solid in this company, and the standout topspeed figure of 122 tells you he has the raw ability to dominate if reproducing it. Bolger knows exactly how to place one in this discipline and Mr J M Halford is a capable partner. At 2/1 he is no giveaway, but in a race where several rivals come with caveats, he still makes plenty of appeal as the most likely winner. Bet type: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. What Path – 9/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Mr J Dunne | Trainer: Ian O’Connor | Form: 5P/S-2 | Rating: 136 | Topspeed: 74
What Path looks the each-way value against the favourite. He returned with a second last time and that effort suggested plenty of ability remains intact after a stop-start spell. His rating of 136 actually edges him above the market leader on the figures, and although his topspeed number does not scream certainty, this sort of race often turns on stamina and resolution rather than pure pace. The 9/2 on offer is fair because he has enough class to make the frame and, if the favourite underperforms under top weight, he is the one I could see picking up the pieces. He appeals as a sensible each-way punt in a race with three places on offer. Bet type: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it straightforward: Solitary Man is the win bet because he brings the strongest recent form and the best speed figure into the race. For an each-way alternative, What Path makes more appeal than the other dangers at around 9/2. Hunt Away is the one to note as a danger if building on limited but promising form, while Ambitious Fellow is interesting on old ability.

17:17 – Bryan MacMahon (Pro/Am) INH Flat Race
Race Details: 2m 4f | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places | | jumps
This looks a fairly interesting closing bumper rather than a deep one, with the market understandably focused on the obvious trio of Caman Hill, Thelittleballerina and Minnatrix. Caman Hill arrives off a winning debut and sets the standard on bare recent evidence, while Thelittleballerina already has a win on the card and appeals as a mare still going the right way. Minnatrix has the highest rating in the field and would be a major player if putting that latest fall behind him. Behind them, Martymill has bits of form but needs to step forward again, and the rest look like they have plenty to prove on what they’ve shown so far. Tactics and stamina over this 2m4f will matter, but it still feels like a race the principals should dominate.
Top Selections
1. Thelittleballerina – 2/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Mr J Dunne | Trainer: Ian Patrick Donoghue | Form: 31- | Rating: 117 | Topspeed: 54
She makes plenty of appeal in a race where proven bumper form is worth plenty. That 3-1 profile tells a straightforward story: she learned from her debut and came forward to get her head in front next time, which is exactly what you want to see from a progressive sort in this sphere. A mark of 117 puts her right in the argument and, while Caman Hill is the more fashionable one after a debut win, Thelittleballerina brings a slightly broader base of form to the table. At 2/1 she is hardly missed, but she still looks the percentage call to run her race and go very close. Bet: WIN
2. Minnatrix – 5/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Mr J W Hendrick | Trainer: Eoin Christopher McCarthy | Form: 2-F | Rating: 124 | Topspeed: 83
Minnatrix looks the value angle if you’re playing beyond the obvious favourite pair. The bare form figures need a second glance: he showed ability when runner-up and then failed to complete, but his 124 rating and 83 topspeed are the standout figures in the field. That says there is substance there, and in an ordinary enough contest for the grade he does not need to be spectacular to hit the frame. The question is whether he settles and finishes the job this time, but at 5/1 he makes much more each-way appeal than some of the shorter ones. If the fall has not left a mark, he is very dangerous. Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
The win bet is Thelittleballerina, who looks solid, progressive and less of a leap of faith than some of these. For an each-way punt, Minnatrix stands out on ratings and raw ability if bouncing back cleanly from that latest mishap.
