Daily National Hunt Racing Tips

Just the one bet today, really fancy Itchy Feet to do the business, took 7/2 last night. Has the standout novice form in the race and would have went pretty close in the Marsh imo, clean round of jumping today I'd be hopeful of him going close.
 
Midnight Shadow should have a good chance of turning round the Sandown G1 form with Itchy Feet. 5lb better off for 3 1/2l, acts on soft and has solid course form as a hurdler. Pity about the stable form but @ 9/1 worth chancing ew with 5 places

He'll definitely look like he's going to win if he's still there in the last half mile.
I like horses like him.

definitely got a good EW chance but like you say i would be worried about stable form. I do think itchy feet was worth much more than the winning margin in the scilly isles though..

I've got Itchy Feet too. Would be more confident if Olly Murphy's form was better so gone EW to give me insurance. Also got Oldgrangewood when he was 9s with Sky as just can't see him out the top 5.
 
Wasnt monte cristo well thought of around this time last year? Didnt do as well as expected I dont think but looks a nice price today for one that could have a lot of improvement in him.
 
Nasty for Robbie Power that. Hope he is OK. Unfortunately qe'll never know how Vision Des Flos would have run as he didn't make it past the first.
 
He's bottled the last a bit with Itchy there has Coleman, fair play to Nuts well prob still would of won thou. Still disappointing from Itchy had expected him to take that lot.

Two for me today
Everglow 1:20 5/2
Sizeable Sam 12:50 2/1 - strong fancy.
 
Interesting to see how different the bookies are pricing the 1.55 Punchestown tomorrow, shame about the 7 runners as there could be some EW value to be had as a safety net

and the 3.25

365 are 8/1 about Run Wild Fred while everyone else seems to be 9/2

Going to just take that 8/1 each and see how it looks in the morning.


I thought odds against for Latest Exhibition is a nice price too - but haven't taken that.

365 are priced up a bit funky in most of the races at Punchestown.
I've acc'd a few and see in the morning how they look too.
Fissa 4-1
Rythym Divine 5-1
Ruaille Buaille 5-1
Blaze a Trail 12-1
Magic Tricks 5-2

All seemed out of sync and bigger than I'd have them.
 
Queens brook/abacadabras/chemical energy treble pays 5/1 tommorow at down royal..i think that could be very good!
 
Dont recall seeing a shorter priced jumps horse than Envoi Allen tomorrow! Jesus!!

For a novice chase seen shorter priced hurdlers. Don’t know that I could trust abracadabras in hurdle either.
 
Struggling to find anything to beat Aba tomorrow though

This the Irish 4 year olds where poor last year, and form lies that the Juvenile race hasnt been great

Jason The Militant, not sure he'll get clos
The rest are lame
The w
They did finish 1/2 at the end of the day. AT hardly jumped a hurdle on the way round and is worth am interest bet tomorrow
 
Apart from 1 hurdle his jumping was much better today. Getting 6lb from Aba but 4lb of that was WFA
