Well, yesterday wasnt that great! Neither of our tipped horses won, and some complete no-hoper won the National, great!
Today there are actually some good race cards on, Ascot has some decent jumps action especially, and that’ll be the focus of our tips today.
Ballygarvey – 4:00 Ascot – NAP – 4/1 Bet365 4/1+ Feature Race (Freebet if your horse wins at 4/1 or higher)
This horse won a class 2 race at Chepstow last time. He’s a front runner, and made all to win there, despite a few errors. The switch from hurdles to fences seems to of done the world of good for this horse, winning 3 from 4, the only defeat being a hot race at Cheltenham in January where the impressive Vino Griego and duel Aintree Festival winner Battle group filled out the places. He tried his best that day, but was outclassed by some useful horses. Tetlami runs in this race and is a threat, although he seems to have problems jumping. Away from grade 1 company now Tetlami is a real threat to our selection, but we’re happy to stick with Ballygarvey.
Little Dutch Girl – 3:25 Ascot – NB – 4/1 Bet365 4/1+ Feature Race (Freebet if your horse wins at 4/1 or higher)
After 3 placed efforts over hurdles, Nicky Hendersons fillie landed a class 4 juvenile hurdle last time by a wide margin and remains unexposed, a potential improver. The race she won last time wasn’t a great race, so this will demand more. She gets some big weight pulls, carrying a stone less than the 10/3 favourite Calculated Risk. We’re happy to take a chance on her today
