Sunday Picks

After four winners and two place choices from Dubai yesterday, we go on the hunt for winners today.

Starting at Cork with Lareena in 4:05. Willie Mullins charge makes her handicap debut today on a fair mark, getting over a stone from joint favourite Spades Are Trumps. Carrying just 1-2 she must have a cracking chance. Mala Beach is out again quickly after winning two weeks ago and should win the 3:30 if fully recovered from that race. I like Brelade in the 4:40, he was travelling well in the County at Cheltenham before fading on the run in. He has a bit to find with Bleu Et Rouge but at the prices he is the value.

Ffos Las has a decent card and in the first at 2:25 I like Filatore, he has course form and is off a lightweight which on this ground will help. Never Equalled runs in the 4:00 and hopefully he can win and bring up a nice double for Bernard Llewellyn. Bob Ford looks a good bet in the 4:35 and the money has come in this morning, backed in from 8/1 to 4/1. As each way alternative I like Cailleach Annie at 6/1, a winner last time out and off a featherweight she could go close. Not much of a betting angle but Burrows Edge should win the 2:55 for Nicky Henderson and James Bowen.

Fairyhouse has a cracking card, starting with the opener a maiden hurdle over two miles. Savannah Storm should be hard to beat, but Joseph O'Brien has two chances against the favourite with Uisce Beathea looking to be the number one chance for the stable. Raced only once he finished second to a decent sort who has run well since. This son of Yeats could turn over the odds on shot. In the 2:20 I will be on Call A Cab the mount of Mark Walsh. He looks a nice progressive type and will like the step up in trip and 5/1 is a fair price. Laurina must be the banker of the day after her Cheltenham romp, She won with so much in hand in that grade 2 you can't see her adding this grade one to her tally. Lackaneen Leader could be one for the forecast and it is interesting that Emma Lavelle sends Woolstone One over from England. In the novice hurdle at 3:20 Scarpeta is my pick, I thought he ran a nice race behind Samcro at the festival. Duc Des Genievres ran one place behind his stable mate in that race and Paul Townend and Danny Mullins keep their respected rides I think they will finish in the same order. In the 3:55 I'm going for some value and picking Gordon Elliott's Robin Des Mana, he is very consistent bar last time out and around 12/1 he represents value under Davy Russell. Shattered Love could well continue his excellent run of form and make it a four timer in the Ryanair Gold Cup. Already a double grade one winner he should be favourite but isn't any value at 5/4. The Storyteller deserves the step up to grade one company after his win at Cheltenham but I'll take a chance on Invitation Only. Sizing Pottsie desrves to be favourite for the last after winning first time out . Again looking for some value though and going for Yukon Lil, very nicely bred and around 6/1 represents nice value in an open race.
