Today’s tip comes from Kempton where we give Paul Nicholls’ mount a chance to redeem himself after last month’s disappointment. MEANUS DANDY runs in the 14:00, following up on his uninspiring 4th at Chepstow, when he was an odds on debutant. Paul Nicholls had so many odds on horses turned over that weekend, so something wasn’t right. This horse has had 4 consecutive wins in pointers and there’s definitely some ability there. Whispers from the stable suggest that a big run is expected.

Today’s tip comes from Aintree where Sir Alex Ferguson’s horse MARC AURELE is running in the 16:35. Marc Aurele has a good second to Riverside Theatre to his name but was slightly under par the last time we saw him. He has had an operation since and the fact that Nicholls has perservered and retains the horse makes me think we just haven’t seen the best of this one. This is a bad standard of race for the track and Nicholls may have found an opportunity to get this horse off of the mark, at the 4th time of asking over hurdles.

Today’s tip comes from Worcester where the Paul Nicholls trained SUPER FORMEN looks to have a great chance in the penultimate race of the day. This horse won on hurdles debut at Chepstow before going on to finish 2nd in his first run over fences. He then won a 4 runner beginners chase at Taunton on soft ground. We’ve been told that the horse is running extremely fit at home shows his best form on a soft surface. Nicholls is the key factor in the horses’ chances & also the mercurial Ruby Walsh has ridden him 3 times to finish 1-2-1.
