Admit to being a sucker for these Bumpers in Ireland, and today's finalé at Thurles (16:23) is no exception. Don't think I've ever picked a winner in this sphere yet, although have been chinned in a photo once or twice. So, again will go for Gordon Elliott's newcomer, Wudya, a Califet mare, and a well-bred half-sister to a dual Bumper winner. Experienced amateur, Mr. Harry Swan (5), rides for the Elliott yard. 4/1 best price in nearly all places at time of writing, on both the ATR and Oddschecker sites.
Briefly, in the last at Lingfield (16:45), s Class-5 Handicap Hurdle over 2m on heavy ground, the Flemensfirth gelding, Double Click, looks nailed-on to run a big race. Gavin Sheehan rides for the Jamie Snowden stable. 4/1 (Wm.Hill) best price at time of writing, on both the ATR and Oddschecker sites.
I'm not getting past Classic Maestro in the 2.15 be warned though my form is certainly not in Frankel vein at present.
