Omuircheartaigh (2-1) kept up our expert’s excellent recent run (four winners from nine selections) on Saturday, while Tuesday’s trio of best bets are live.
Having been at Romford on Friday evening and backed FABULOUS MAGIQUE (3) who runs in an A5 this afternoon (14.49), it was agonising to see her picked up on the line.
David Mullins’s bitch is inevitably a fast starter who will always be vulnerable in the finish of her races but is now peaking after seasonal rest and plying her trade two grades below her previous level; she is surely close to a win.
Hopefully, that comes here, albeit this is a tough race for the grade, but the clues have certainly been dropped.
TINTREACH GUNS (1) is a young inexperienced puppy that has displayed marked improvement in each of his three starts and can follow up last week’s victory when stepping up to A2 company at Central Park (20.02).
The expert was particularly taken by the positive attitude of Paul Donovan’s August whelp when touched off two starts back, rallying to regain the advantage after the line, and his early pace should quickly take him to the front which I fancy will be enough to seal the deal.
MINI EVA (2) is a little ‘powerball’ to the bend judged on her recent starts and Dave Lee’s April pup might claim an A2 at Crayford (20.32).
Slowly away last week she was fearless to claim the advantage on the rails going into the turn and after a strong front-running display down the back was unlucky to be snuffed out close home.
Compensation surely awaits for a youngster who has won four of her seven outings to date even if the racing manager has framed a competitive contest full of early-paced types that will again test her mettle.
