Today’s tip comes from Haydock where there is some value in opposing the hot favourite Punjabi in the 14:55. Since winning the Champion Hurdle he has disappointed on his last two appearances. With only 4 horses in the field it could pay to side with AFSOUN who has been performing really well for Nicky Henderson at home. He is a horse of tremendous talent and is in very good health at present, despite a fall on his reappearance. His prominent style suits small fields and 12/1 is a great price to be working with today.
