This is a fairly ordinary beginners’ chase on paper but that does not make it straightforward. Several arrive with bits and pieces of hurdle form, while the chasing profiles are either unfinished or slightly underwhelming. Journey So Far sets the standard on a mark of 113 and it is easy to see why the market has latched on, though he is not one to back blindly after a mixed sequence. A Snow White Park gets a handy weight allowance as a 5yo and looks one of the more interesting unexposed types, while Giant Haystacks and Huntsgrove have enough ability to make this competitive if taking to the discipline properly. In truth, it feels more a race to play value than to trust the obvious one at cramped odds.
Top Selections
1. A Snow White Park – 9/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Danny Mullins | Trainer: Ms Margaret Mullins | Form: 5P94-5 | Rating: 114 | Topspeed: 89
There is enough here to think A Snow White Park can make a winning start over fences. She is the highest-rated runner in the field, gets in with just 159, and her latest fifth was not a bad effort in the context of this race. As a 5yo against older, more exposed rivals, she has a bit more upside than most and Danny Mullins is a positive booking in a contest where fluent jumping could be the difference. At 9/2 she appeals more than the favourite because she does not need to improve a stack to take this, merely settle into a rhythm and use that weight pull to good effect. Bet: WIN
2. Giant Haystacks – 5/1 with Paddy Power
Jockey: Danny Gilligan | Trainer: Ross O’Sullivan | Form: 4075-4 | Rating: 102 | Topspeed: 90
Giant Haystacks looks the sensible each-way play in a race lacking depth. His recent fourth suggests he is coming to the boil, and while his mark of 102 leaves him with a bit to find on pure figures, he has posted a useful Topspeed of 90 and shapes like this 2m5f trip should suit. Ross O’Sullivan’s runner does not have the sexy profile of some of these, but that can work in your favour when the market gets carried away with more fashionable names. Available at 5/1, he is solid enough to hit the frame and would not be a major shock if a couple of the principals fluff their lines over fences. Bet: EACH-WAY
Danger: Journey So Far is the obvious threat on ratings and if Gavin Cromwell’s runner jumps cleanly, he is the one most likely to make the selection work.
Betting Strategy
Back A Snow White Park to win, as she brings the best mix of ability, scope and a handy weight concession. Giant Haystacks makes more appeal as the each-way punt in an 11-runner field with three places on offer, because he looks reliable enough to outrun his price. Journey So Far is the danger, but at the head of the market he is opposable rather than irresistible.

17:20 – Tramore Derby July 7th Beginners Chase
Race Details: 1m 7f | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places (Watering) | | jumps
This looks a fairly informative beginners’ chase for the grade, with the market understandably centred on Endless Talking and Costacurta. The former arrives on the back of a win and has the profile of a 5yo still going the right way, while Costacurta brings smart connections and some solid hurdle form to the table on his first go over fences. Mercury Mission is the one who gives the race a slightly different shape, though, because he already has a proper chase rating and sets a workable standard on the figures. Over this sharp enough 1m7f, slick jumping and tactical speed should count for plenty, so any novicey mistakes may prove costly. It is not an impossible puzzle, but there are enough unknowns with the chasing debutants to make it interesting.
Top Selections
1. Mercury Mission – 9/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Liam McKenna | Trainer: P Cluskey | Form: 17U2-3 | Rating: 122 | Topspeed: 113
He makes plenty of appeal because, unlike some of these, he has already shown useful chase form and his figures are comfortably the strongest on offer. A mark of 122 and Topspeed of 113 give him a solid edge in a race where the two market leaders still have fences to answer. His latest third suggested he was holding his form well enough, and this trip on decent ground should be absolutely fine. At 9/2 with Bet365, he looks the value against less exposed but shorter-priced rivals. If he jumps with his usual fluency, he has every chance of making experience count. Bet: WIN
2. Bannow Blaze – 9/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Brian Hayes | Trainer: Jonathan Fogarty | Form: 72120- | Rating: | Topspeed:
Bannow Blaze is the each-way angle in a race where a couple of the obvious ones may be taking plenty on trust. His hurdle form last season was respectable without being flashy, and the 72120- sequence suggests he was running consistently well before signing off with a lesser effort. Brian Hayes is a positive booking for this sort of test, and if this 6yo takes to chasing in straightforward fashion, he could easily outrun his price. The 9/1 with Bet365 looks fair in an eight-runner field with three places on offer, especially if one or two of the more fashionable runners fail to warm to the job. Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Mercury Mission is the win play because he brings the most convincing chase evidence and sets the standard on the published figures. Bannow Blaze makes more appeal as the each-way punt at a workable price in an eight-runner race. Endless Talking is the obvious danger after his recent win, while Costacurta is respected on stable strength and potential, but both are short enough for horses facing fences for the first time.

17:55 – Walsh King Accountants Handicap Chase
Race Details: 1m 7f | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places (Watering) | | jumps
This looks a proper Tramore handicap chase rather than a race packed with lurkers from graded company, but it is still a tricky little puzzle over this sharp 1m7f. Lady Doyanne heads the market after a solid return, while Stuntman Steve represents a yard that rarely leaves this type of race unattended. Polly Poppins is another with obvious appeal from the foot of the weights, and Femme Magnifique has the figures to be involved if she gets a clean run at it. The shape of the race suggests pace will matter plenty around here, and with several arriving off mixed or patchy recent efforts, it could easily come down to who travels best and jumps slickest. Not the strongest contest on the card, but definitely one where a strong view can pay.
Top Selections
1. Lady Doyanne – 7/2 with Betfair
Jockey: Darragh O’keeffe | Trainer: Henry De Bromhead | Form: 104D6-4 | Rating: | Topspeed:
Lady Doyanne makes plenty of appeal in a race where not many arrive with a particularly convincing recent profile. Her reappearance fourth was the sort of run that often sets one up nicely for a handicap like this, and the De Bromhead team know exactly what is required around Tramore with these nimble, pacey chasers. She is lightly enough weighted for one from a top yard, and as a 6yo there is still scope for a bit more progress over fences. At 7/2, she is not being missed, but she still looks the percentage call if building on that latest effort. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Polly Poppins – 6/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Daniel King | Trainer: Bernard Martin Crowley | Form: 52693- | Rating: 122 | Topspeed: 107
Polly Poppins looks the value angle in the race. She is only six, carries just 140, and her profile suggests she has been running well enough in defeat to make her presence felt in this grade. A mark of 122 gives her a fighting chance, while that Topspeed figure of 107 says she has the raw ability to cope if this turns into a sharper test than some may want. She does not have the sexy profile of one coming here off a win, but these low-weighted, progressive sorts are often exactly the ones to side with in handicaps at Tramore. The 6/1 makes plenty of each-way sense.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Lady Doyanne is the straight win play, chiefly because she looks the one most likely to step forward from her recent run and she comes from the yard you want onside in races like this. Polly Poppins is the each-way punt at 6/1, with her low weight and solid speed figure making her easy to fancy for the frame at least. Stuntman Steve and Femme Magnifique look the main dangers.

18:30 – Success Days At Kilbarry Lodge Stud Mares Maiden Hurdle
Race Details: 2m 5f | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places (Watering) | | jumps
This doesn’t look the deepest mares’ maiden hurdle Tramore will stage all year, but it does feature a very solid favourite and one obvious threat from a powerhouse yard. Poetic Twist sets the standard on what she has already achieved, arriving with a mark of 125 after finishing runner-up on her last two starts and bringing comfortably the best published figures to the table. Luciole Des Bordes is the interesting one against her, with W P Mullins and Paul Townend a combination nobody ignores in this type of race, while Muted Melody has enough experience to get involved again if the principals underperform. Beyond those, most of these look to need major improvement, so this may come down to whether Poetic Twist can finally get her head in front over this longer trip.
Top Selections
1. Poetic Twist – 10/11 with Bet365
Jockey: Sam Ewing | Trainer: Gordon Elliott | Form: 422-2 | Rating: 125 | Topspeed: 121
She is no secret, but sometimes the obvious answer is still the right one. Poetic Twist has the strongest hurdle form in the race by a fair margin, and that sequence of near-misses reads well in the context of an ordinary maiden like this. A mark of 125 puts her clear of the exposed opposition, and her Topspeed figure of 121 underlines that she has already run to a level the others may struggle to match. The step out to 2m5f looks more likely to help than hinder, and if she settles into a rhythm early, she should simply prove too strong. At 10/11, she is short enough but still hard to oppose. Bet type: WIN.
Bet: WIN
2. Luciole Des Bordes – 2/1 with Betfair
Jockey: Paul Townend | Trainer: W P Mullins | Form: 5/224- | Rating: | Topspeed:
If you want to take on the favourite or play an each-way angle in a 10-runner field, Luciole Des Bordes is the only one that makes serious appeal. She has already shown enough in France and Ireland to suggest a race of this nature is within range, and her form figures hint at a mare who has been knocking on the door without quite finishing the job. The Mullins-Townend pairing is an obvious plus, especially in a mares’ maiden where improvement from one run to the next is often sharp. At 2/1 she is hardly hidden from the market, but she still looks the most likely one to chase home Poetic Twist if the favourite runs to form. Bet type: EACH-WAY.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it straightforward: Poetic Twist is the win bet because her form and figures are comfortably the best on offer. For an each-way punt, Luciole Des Bordes makes the most sense as the class yard alternative with place security. Muted Melody is the danger if improving again, but this really looks like a race the favourite should be bossing.

19:00 – Tramore Handicap Hurdle
Race Details: 2m 5f | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places (Watering) | | jumps
This is the sort of Tramore handicap hurdle that looks simple at first glance and then becomes awkward the longer you study it. There are plenty arriving with questions to answer, but a few have solid enough profiles for this grade. Tedworth, Just For One and Zolpharine head the market for obvious reasons, all coming here off efforts that put them right in the mix, while Brianna Lily arrives on the back of a better run and still looks feasibly treated. The big field and five-place each-way terms should make this a properly-run race, and over 2m5f it ought to come down to who settles, jumps cleanly and sees it out strongest. It is not a deep contest, but it is definitely a tricky little puzzle.
Top Selections
1. Tedworth – 9/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Alan O’Sullivan | Trainer: Michael Barry | Form: 6401-4 | Rating: 105 | Topspeed: 97
Tedworth makes plenty of appeal in a race where not many arrive with reliable recent form. He signed off last season with a win and then returned with a perfectly respectable fourth, which suggests he has held his level and remains on a workable mark of 105. That Topspeed figure of 97 is one of the better pieces of evidence on offer here too, and in a race full of runners with patchy profiles, that matters. Alan O’Sullivan knows the horse, and he looks the type to be suited by this test if the race turns into a proper stamina examination. At 9/2, he is not a giveaway, but he is the percentage call.
Bet: WIN
2. Brianna Lily – 11/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Josh Williamson | Trainer: James M Barcoe | Form: 70P-03 | Rating: 105 | Topspeed: 62
Brianna Lily is the each-way angle because she comes here off a solid third and, unlike plenty of these, actually hinted last time that she is ready to capitalise. The nine-year-old is not obviously ahead of the assessor, but she is at least holding her form better than most and this race does not demand anything spectacular. James M Barcoe also runs Evening’s Empire, but Brianna Lily is clearly the more persuasive candidate on current evidence. She should be competitive from this sort of mark if reproducing that latest run, and with five places on offer the 11/2 makes plenty of each-way sense rather than trying to get clever at a bigger price with one of the less trustworthy types.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Tedworth is the sensible win play in a race where recent, dependable form is at a premium. Brianna Lily appeals as the each-way punt, especially with five places softening the risk in a big field. Zolpharine is the obvious danger after last-time-out success, while Just For One is respected despite carrying top weight after that latest win.

19:35 – Graun Hill Suite Hospitality Packages At tramoreraces.ie Handicap Hurdle
Race Details: 2m | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places (Watering) | | jumps
This looks a tight little 2m handicap rather than a deep one, and there are several with plausible cases. Eastmore sets the standard on consistency and arrives with the best Topspeed figure in the field, so it is easy to see why he heads the market. Playtime is interesting back in this grade for Gordon Elliott, though top weight asks a question, while Splashing Out comes here off a solid return and has the profile of one who can be competitive from this mark. Figero is the lurking improver after getting his head in front last time, but that came from a lower base and this is a sharper test against stronger handicappers. In truth, this feels less like a race full of hidden angles and more one where current reliability and race position will decide it.
Top Selections
1. Eastmore – 5/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Philip Byrnes | Trainer: C Byrnes | Form: 1222-3 | Rating: 123 | Topspeed: 120
Eastmore is the percentage call. He was admirably consistent last season, regularly knocking on the door, and his latest third suggested he has returned in good order rather than needing the outing. A mark of 123 still looks workable on the balance of that form, and the standout Topspeed figure of 120 says he has the raw pace for a race like this around Tramore. C Byrnes runners are rarely without a plan, and with Philip Byrnes taking over from a handy racing weight, he should get a good stalking trip. At 5/2 he is not a gift, but he is the one with the fewest doubts and holds strong claims.
Bet: WIN
2. Splashing Out – 11/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Peter Smithers | Trainer: Eoin Griffin | Form: 7687-3 | Rating: 125 | Topspeed: 112
Splashing Out makes plenty of each-way appeal in a race where some of the principals are cramped enough in the market. He had looked out of sorts before his break, but that latest third was a welcome revival and hinted that he is ready to strike if building on it. His mark of 125 is no giveaway, yet his Topspeed figure of 112 suggests he retains enough ability to be very competitive at this level, especially over this trip on decent ground. Eoin Griffin’s runner is the type to travel well and, in a seven-runner race lacking depth, 11/2 looks fair enough for an each-way punt with solid place prospects.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Eastmore is the solid win play, the runner with the strongest recent profile and the most convincing body of handicap form. For a bit of value, Splashing Out makes obvious each-way sense in a seven-runner field if repeating his latest effort. Playtime is the main danger on class, while Figero is the one who could outrun his price if his last-time-out win proves the start of something better.

Race Details: 2m | | Going: GOOD, Good to yielding in places (Watering) | | jumps
This doesn’t look a deep bumper, but it is an interesting little heat all the same, with the market understandably centring on One Day In May and Highlander Addict. The former sets the standard on figures after a promising debut third and gets plenty of weight from the older horses, while Highlander Addict has been knocking on the door without quite getting his head in front. There are a few unknowns to keep an eye on, most notably Lincoln Mill, whose prominence in the betting suggests some stable confidence despite lacking racecourse evidence. Behind those, it quickly starts to thin out, with exposed types like Goodmancon and Talas Kera looking vulnerable. It feels more about upside than depth, and that makes the favourite hard to ignore.

There was plenty to like about that debut third, and in a race where several have already shown their limitations, One Day In May brings the most persuasive piece of recent form. A rating of 111 and a standout Topspeed figure of 108 give him a clear edge on the numbers, and the fact he receives weight as a 6yo mare only strengthens the case. Robert Tyner’s runner doesn’t need to improve a stone to win this; a normal step forward from first to second start may well suffice. At 11/8, she isn’t exactly missed, but she still looks the one they all have to beat. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Lincoln Mill – 9/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Ms E C Costello | Trainer: L J Archdeacon | Form: | Rating: | Topspeed:
With so little depth beyond the front two in the market, Lincoln Mill makes obvious each-way appeal as the interesting unknown. He lacks the safety net of established form, but the market has him prominent and that often speaks loudly enough in these ordinary late-evening bumpers. This is not a race packed with lurking dangers, and if he shows any ability at all, he could easily hit the frame. The exposed ones behind him don’t set an intimidating standard, so taking 9/2 each-way about a debutant against modest opposition makes plenty of sense. He doesn’t have to be a world-beater to outrun that price. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
One Day In May is the win play and looks the percentage call given her debut promise and superior figures. For an each-way punt, Lincoln Mill is the one to side with in a race lacking depth behind the favourite. Highlander Addict is the obvious danger if returning in the same vein, but he’s had chances and doesn’t look especially generous at the price.
