It’s a roll-over week in Paddy’s free-to-play weekly competition, meaning there’s a massive £/€50k jackpot up for grabs.

Last time the prize was claimed, 26 winners took home the Paddy’s Pick 5 loot on Saturday August 20. But last week, there were no winners – which is good news for those entering our Saturday September 3 edition!

WELCOME TO PADDY POWER NEWS!

With racing action from Kempton and Haydock, we’ve drafted in racing royalty Ruby Walsh and slick selector Rory Delargy to share their top picks on the 5 selected races below.

Let’s get their verdicts…

14:40 Kempton – Spirit Of The Bay

Ruby Walsh

I’m going for SPIRIT OF THE BAY for Rossa Ryan and Clive Cox. She got in front too soon at Sandown last time out but she has won at Kempton twice before.

14:55 Haydock – Contact

Ruby Walsh

Soulcombe bolted up in the Melrose at York last time out but he’s risen up to an official rating of 97 for that. He may still be well in but I’m going to take a chance on CONTACT. He won here off 90 back in May and he also had a solid run at Ascot in June. He didn’t get the run of the race at Newmarket last time out so I’ll forgive that.

15:15 Kempton – Flag Flying

Rory Delargy

Impressive when winning a Novice at Goodwood in June, but FLAG FLYING been off three months. He was well fancied that day to win by four lengths and has been given plenty of time to develop as the Charlton team never rush their juveniles – and hopefully they can reap the reward now.

15:30 Haydock – Castle Star

Ruby Walsh

I’m going for CASTLE STAR – but I have slight concerns about where he’s drawn. Brad The Brief could show a bit of pace over that side which could suit Castle Star, who has a chance at a big price. He ran well behind Perfect Power last year but he’s only had the one run this season. He will get the 6f so he’ll do me!

16:05 Haydock – Atalis Bay

Rory Delargy

Ran very well in this race in this contest last year, ATALIS BAY has had no luck in running in his last two start this season – most recently when a fast finisher at York, but just edged out at the end.
