Taking a step back and looking at the weekend it was very interesting in the context of Cheltenham. I honestly think Dunguib could be the biggest certainty ever to line up at Cheltenham and is a serious horse for the future if he stays sound.
Punchestowns made a jumping error, but came cruising up to win easily. It was the jumping error that made me think, but I always remember Mick Fitzgerald saying he believed this to be a Gold Cup winner of the future. The more I see the more I am sure the Gold Cup is a two horse race and anyone who says otherwise is kidding themselves. It is going to be fantastic, that is for sure.
And now, Tuesday at Market Rasen and Sedgefield with all-weather action at Southwell. Not quite Cheltenham but there to be tackled. Here are my Free Horseracing Betting Tips for Tuesday.
2:00 Market Rasen, Bygones Of Brid- Win. I think this is a decent horse who is just short of top class, as his form illustrates, but more than capable in a race like this. This could be the best bet of the day in my view, if the price is right it may be a heavy investment for me. Timmy Murphy on board is a big plus, he has already won on the horse and has a style that suits this one down to the ground.
3:30 Market Rasen, Carrickmines- Win. This is such a poor race that Carrickmines is almost my selection on default. He remains on his mark when second last time and I am sure the stables horses were short of work during the freeze and if I am right he should come here a bit sharper and hopefully win. A good solid type who I will wait to back until I have seen him jump a couple of fences. He will probably be dropped in and trade at a bigger price in play.
4:30 Market Rasen, Mac Aeda- Win. One run in this one’s career was a course and distance win for a stable who does well with their bumper runners. I would expect him to improve for that first outing. Being trained in Malton many of the stables in the North Yorkshire training centre get improvement from their runners from first to second run which will in my view see him home despite having to give weight away to what, on paper at least, looks a weak bumper.
