Good morning,
Here are today's best bets from Strong Promise Racing.
Flat races
- Newmarket 4:40 pm: 1. IRISH NECTAR -- 1.5 pts (4/5) (Low risk)
IRISH NECTAR stands head and shoulders above the field, combining recent consistency—two wins in six starts—with proven sprint class on soft ground. His pedigree and M Herrington's touch further bolster his credentials.
- Southwell 7:30 pm: 3. ACCLAMIQUE -- 1.5 pts (4/1) (Adventurous)
ACCLAMIQUE stands head and shoulders above the field, backed by a top-class trainer and pedigree, though her lack of recent flat action is a minor caveat. Pointed follows as the most credible alternative, though her recent placings suggest she's yet to hit peak form—her market confidence is inflated.
National Hunt races
- Ffos Las 2:36 pm: 1. KILWAUGHTER -- 2 pts (85/40) (Low risk)
KILWAUGHTER stands head and shoulders above the field, his recent absence notwithstanding. The soft ground suits his stamina and pedigree, while his consistent older form—culminating in a victory—bolsters confidence.
- Clonmel 3:56 pm: 2. LA NOTE VERTE -- 1.5 pts (1/19) (Adventurous)
LA NOTE VERTE stands out as the most likely winner, backed by recent class, progressive form over C+D, and Townend's steady hands. Ad Caelum, though off the pace in recent outings, suits the trip and turf, with Ryan's experience and her sire's pedigree offering a credible threat.
