NAP of the Day 09.01.26

EASYFIX Equine Novice Chase - Naas

Kurasso Blue

J: Jack Kennedy T: G Elliott

Race Winner

5/4

Reason for Tip

Kurasso Blue has shown great promise in his first 5 runs, the first three over hurdles resulted in two wins and on first chase start in November he was second behind a high class opponent but proved his talent when winning a warm 10 runner race at Punchestown lto in December. Remains unexposed, particularly over fences and looks the pick of the bunch in this field today. Will relish the trip, represents a top irish yard who are enjoying a great start to the season and stable jockey Jack Kennedy gets the ride. Looks capable of improving beyond this field today and wouldn’t be a big surprise if this turns out a rather comfortable affair for Kurasso Blue today. Looks to have great potential and should solidify that today. Looks the winner.

5/4

59/50

⭐ NAP of the Day

Speculateur – 2.20 Clonmel (5/4)

Trainer: Gordon Elliott
Jockey: Jack Kennedy

Low-mileage five-year-old Speculateur looks the standout on today’s card. A point-to-point winner prior to switching to rules racing, he has always shaped like a horse who would improve markedly once sent hurdling.

That step is taken today and he does so in a weak and ordinary race, which won’t take much winning. Gordon Elliott’s record with first-time hurdlers is excellent, and Jack Kennedy taking the ride adds further confidence.

Conditions should suit, the pedigree is right, and a significant step forward is expected. Anything close to his potential should see him win this.

Sea Founder

J: Finley Marsh T: R Hughes

Race Winner

8/1

Reason for Tip

Low mileage four year old Sea Founder from the Hughes stable failed to kick on from a win at Windsor in April and as a result mark has dropped back to a very tempting one. Not been since since September however the win at Windsor in April was after 7 months off so should be fine to go well fresh again. Has a decent draw today, runs usual trip and is capable of disrupting the principals today. Yard is a shrewd operation and do well finding good races for their string of horses and this looks a good one for Sea Founder. Finley Marsh gets the ride which is a positive and the pair share a decent record when combining at this track. If fully on song after the break, may just have something to say in this race and is far from written off.

🎯 Dark Horse

Lemoncello – 2.10 Ffos Las (10/1)

Trainer: Venetia Williams
Jockey: Charlie Deutsch

Lemoncello is much better than his recent form figures suggest. A capable hurdler previously, he was sent chasing this season but suffered two falls — enough to knock confidence, but not ability.

Returned to hurdles today, he finds himself on a very attractive mark, back over his preferred obstacles and on soft ground that will play to his strengths. Venetia Williams’ runners often bounce back sharply in these conditions and Charlie Deutsch is a strong booking.

In a wide-open race, Lemoncello looks overpriced and is capable of a big run at double-figure odds.

Gillespie

J: Freddie Keighley T: P F Nicholls

Race Winner

7/2

Reason for Tip

Nicholls trained Gillespie is an unexposed low mileage 6 year old who has only been seen on three occasions with form of 134. Goes handicapping for the first time today on a very workable mark in a rather tame entry point and looks set for a big run today. On pedigree the longer trip today is a positive and from what we’ve seen so far is a decent and relatively controlled hurdler who should appreciate the forecasted good ground. Remains open to plenty more progress than a lot of these horses today and represents a top yard with a strong track record at Exeter. Freddie Keighley gets the ride and also takes off 3lb with his apprentice allowance. Great chance for this boy today.

Cumberland River

J: Carl Millar T: G Elliott

Race Winner

11/4

Reason for Tip

Cumberland River is the youngest horse in this race and and has started this season in decent style. Needed the return run but got up very nicely lto at Limerick to win when battling through the field in the closing stages. Has been raised 8lb for that win but it’s not unusual for horses to kick on in this scenario and he remains open to further progress still. From a top yard who are in excellent form and the trip is the same as lto for this four year old. Only real question mark is the ground, he relished the heavy ground lto so any overnight or morning raining would be beneficial but even without, looks a major player in this race.

Annandale

J: P Mulrennan T: J S Goldie

Race Winner

15/2

Reason for Tip

Eight year old Annandale has struggled in the last few months but we saw a return to some form lto here at Newcastle when fourth of nine and it’s hard to dismiss the mark he’s currently on. Now 3lb below last winning mark and looks very dangerously handicapped today in what is a pretty ordinary looking Class 5. Likely to win again soon and this looks his best chance in a while back at a course he historically enjoys and has won at twice previously. Paul Mulrennan aboard is a positive and Annandale definitely has a chance and is capable of producing a win today off this mark.

Invincible Melody

J: Jack Dace T: S C Williams

Race Winner

4/1

Reason for Tip

Bit of a risk taken here on this four year old who is now a 15 race maiden. However, has been running very well recently even in defeat and the second lto at Southwell was a big step forward from previous and off this mark is capable of putting in another solid performance. Jack Dace gets the ride with his 5lb apprentice allowance and whilst they have an outside draw to come from, best runs have come from middle of the pack so would expect Invincible Lady to be slotted in somewhere ready to challenge in the final furlong. Looks to be a good chance today to grab that win and the yard are enjoying plenty of recent success in the last fortnight.

🍀 Lucky 15 Tips Today

Gino Bella – 2.50 Clonmel (4/1)

Consistent since returning with a third and a second in stronger races. Remains lightly raced and the 5lb apprentice claim puts her on a tempting mark. Conditions are ideal and this looks a great chance.

Celtic Art – 3.00 Taunton (9/2)

Impressive winner here last time and clearly thriving. Although raised 6lb, he remains well treated and returns under identical conditions. A repeat of that effort makes him a major player.

Allegrino – 5.30 Chelmsford (3/1)

Shook off a poor debut with a strong second at Kempton last time out. Open to plenty of improvement, represents a top yard and looks well placed to take a step forward again.

Mumayaz – 7.30 Chelmsford (6/1)

Consistent and versatile sprinter who drops back to 5f — a trip that suits. Usually finishes strongly and the race setup should allow him to come late. Always competitive at this level.
