14:30 – Napper Tandy (NAP)

I like Napper Tandy for Matthew Smith, who was eye-catching at Ballinrobe last time out. He has a big chance as he will have come on a lot for that run.

15:05 – Answer To Kayf

I’m with Answer To Kayf, who has very solid form. He should run his race once again and he’s the most likely winner. John Shinnick claims 7lbs too which is always a bonus. He can win once again for Terence O’Brien.

 

15:40 – Mistergif

Mistergif might just have a class edge on the rest of these. He ran well at Cheltenham and Aintree but it seems there’s more to come from him. He will appreciate the easier test and he’s the worthy favourite.

16:15 – Lecky Watson (each way)

I’m a huge fan of Lecky Watson and I’m not going to desert him. He’s each-way value after finishing fifth to Stellar Story in the Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham. He can show more improvement and Danny Mullins is on board. He will run a solid race.

16:50 – The Yellow Clay (each way)

The price of The Yellow Clay is wrong in my eyes. He’s overpriced after his sixth behind Jasmin De Vaux in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham. He ran a lot better than his finishing place that day. He’ll do better than that and he’s a great each-way price.

 

17:25 – Corach Rambler (each way)

Galopin Des Champs probably wins but I don’t like his price. I’m siding with Corach Rambler, who has obvious claims. He was third in the Gold Cup at Cheltenham before it didn’t go to plan in the Grand National. If he repeats what he did at Cheltenham, he can hit the frame.

18:00 – The Goffer

I’m siding with Gordon Elliott’s The Goffer ahead of James Du Berlais for Willie Mullins. He’s dropping back in trip which will suit and he ran better than his fifth-placed finish at Cheltenham in the Ultima.
