Racing expert Newsboy has unveiled his top selections for Tuesday's trio of horse racing meetings, featuring a standout nap at Newcastle and a promising next best at Bangor. With a focus on jumps racing, his insights aim to guide punters through a packed day of action across the UK.
Newcastle Nap: I C U In My Dreams Favoured for Mares' Hurdle
At Newcastle's seven-race jumps meeting, Newsboy's nap, I C U In My Dreams, is strongly fancied to triumph in the 3.00 Virgin Bet A Good Bet Mares' Maiden Hurdle. This six-year-old mare, trained by Donald McCain jnr and ridden by Theo Gillard, is expected to benefit from a step up in distance to two and a half miles.
Despite a green performance in her hurdles debut at Doncaster earlier this month, where she finished second to Annie Hathway, she showed promise by clearing the third-placed Melosa by 15 lengths. A former Point-to-Point winner over three miles, her stamina should be a key asset, even after making errors like a mistake at the first hurdle and jumping right at times. With eight rivals in the field, she stands out as the one to beat.
Bangor Next Best: Planters Punch Poised for Victory
Over at Bangor, Newsboy highlights Planters Punch as his next best selection in the 2.15 Weatherbys nhstallions.co.uk Junior Hurdle. Trained by Nicky Henderson and piloted by Nico De Boinville, this son of Planteur impressed with a three-quarter length win on his hurdle debut at Hereford, despite running a little green.
The form has been bolstered by the runner-up, who has since secured three consecutive victories, including a recent success at Chepstow last month. This progression suggests Planters Punch is primed to handle the step up in class and could dominate the field.
