Ex Irish independent bookmaker of 10 years, I only punt Irish h’caps , solving the puzzle of a wide open h’cap fascinates me, so finding that long-shot is my daily goal.. I rarely punt single figures, and given the nature of that I often go long droughts with no winner ..! I’ll persevere with the jumps but I do love a 0-65 flat handicap..

Ed Delaney’s 6 y/o mare BIRMINGHAM ALABAMA has the profile of one that could go well here today. She looks a progressive type, winning twice this season already, including here over C/D in January. He penciled in this race after that victory. The drying ground holds no issue. She appears to be on the upgrade and a good conditions pilot is booked. It’s very competitive, lots in with chances, but I’d say she’s set fair for a half-decent showing.

A 0-120 (at the start of the season) final, a fantastic opportunity for ones not quite 'top class' to win a massive pot (100k). There's only been one running of this, so not a lot of data to look at. Ideally, a progressive type would fit well here, you'd imagine. The first 5 home last year were rated 104-114, so let's look for one in or around that mark. One that falls into that category is Stewart Crawford's Kinbara Firstdraft. He's still only 6 and showed himself to be in good form, finishing 2nd to one of the favorites here, Timmy Tuesday, LTO in a 15k qualifier in D Royal for this. They jumped the last upside each other where our selection made a slight error. That was a solid run with quite a few 110+ horses in behind that day. He looks progressive, he's ground dependable I think, and with 6 places on offer, I think at 33/1 he looks inviting.

I’ll back two in this. 33/1 Love Mocha ran respectably on season debut LTO in Gowran and should improve on that. I thought she stayed on admirably up the hill, only beaten by 4 lengths. The handicapper looks to be giving her a right chance, and the first-time cheekpieces could draw improvement also. She’s drawn in the middle, which is a concern, but I’ll chance a small each way. I have Sharethetreasure in the tracker, and I can’t really get away from her. She ran a cracking LTO in Cork, catching the eye, staying on strongly at the death. Naas should play into her strengths. She’ll handle the going even if it continues to dry and comes up good. Nothing sexy about her price, but solid chance nonetheless.

This 0-75 looks borderline impossible. Harry Rodgers has his team in good shape, amongst others winning a 100k listed event last week in Fairyhouse. With a slight bias for low numbers here at Navan, his selection GOTTACATCHTHEMALL catches my eye in stall 2. This lightly raced 5 y/o is still a maiden but went close last year twice, once over this trip at the Curragh on soft ground in this grade. I do have a concern about his mark, probably 3 or 4 ticks above where I’d like it to be, but Adam Caffery’s 5lbs might offset my fears about that. This is wide open, not one to get heavily involved in, but I'll chance a tentative ew with 5 places on offer.

A lot of these have only one or two half-decent bits of form to analyze, so whatever you back will carry risks. None more so than the rag I’ve backed, Tom Doyle’s Midnight Eugene. All I have to go on is his 6th LTO in Tramore, where he ran very well to his credit. How ‘busy’ he was is anyone’s guess, but he traveled well the whole way, ran very wide I thought, late to come off the bridle, and should build on that up another furlong today. Cian Quirke is the man of the hour in the saddle. There probably isn’t enough to go on for most punters, but at 33/1 I’ll roll the dice.

Just a tentative each way here for me on another Noel Meade selection, HELVIC DREAM. The front of this listed market is strong, and it’s hard to see something coming out of the pack. But nevertheless, here we are looking for that daily longshot. This 8-year-old was and is a serious player on the flat (Group 1 winner (soft/heavy)) with a mark of 100 (high of 115). His recent form has been inconsistent, but Meade is a master at rejuvenating them and getting them ready for the big day. He ran in this last year, sent off in single figures but disappointed. On the plus side, we know he handles the soft, and the 2 miles is no issue. He’s had a recent spin on the flat to hopefully sharpen him up. All in all, ticks a few boxes, and if he converts that flat class, he might have a squeak.

BLUE MOSQUE is an easy shout for me here today. Noel Meade’s 5 y/o filly appears to be on the upgrade. Albeit she's bumping into one, she ran into Gordon Elliott’s Card Counter LTO, who has been given a rating of 138 by the handicapper, while the 2 behind her that day were both 133. She’s more than entitled to line up in this listed event as a result. The Navan man has his stable in cracking form early season. She’s proven on the ground, and while it’s a big jump into listed grade , she’s clearly a classy individual, and I think a chance can be taken..

I was leaning towards 'Southgate Avenue' as I think he ran better than his finishing position suggests. This drop in trip should suit, but I put KINGOFTHEBROX straight into the tracker LTO after his Fairyhouse run. He finished 5th but travelled so well, was last to come off the bridle, and I thought whatever happens today is sure to improve next time out. He won on this surface on the flat and could have a big run in him today with all his ducks in a row.

The ground is the key here today, with lots of overnight rain forecast. That 'firm' looks to be wiped out. I was looking at 'Manhattan Dandy' and his soft ground experience but missed the price, unfortunately. That leads me to another individual with soft ground form, and it's one of the reserves, so I'm hoping he gets in. SWISS ARMY OFFICER won't be on too many betting slips. He's a 10-year-old, but unlike a lot of others there, he does have plenty of soft ground form. He's a C/D winner, racing off a career-low mark. He should improve somewhat from his recent Leopardstown run where he was drawn in the car park. It's a very risky proposition, but at 33/1 with 6 places on offer with Sky Bet, I'll chuck a penny in the wishing well.

Volez Vous looks like she has found another soft opportunity to go in again, but she’s now up a total of 15 lbs after 2 wins and is worth taking on, albeit she’s improving. This is restricted to mares and fillies, so any one of them could leave their old form behind in an instant. Eion McCarthy's stable is in cracking form. He saddled a winner and 2 places in Limerick last week and said his stable runners were under a cloud and said they were back on an even keel now. So I’ll take a speculative each way poke on his 5 y/o filly CHAPTER THIRTY in her 1st handicap. It’s risky and it’s nothing more than a hunch, but at 25/1 I think I can live with a no show.

In his debut in 2021, he finished T-12, and in 2022, he followed up with a T-23, a very decent showing highlighting his comfort on this notoriously difficult course. His game fits Augusta well. He’s left-handed (suited here) and with exceptional length off the tee. His recent form is red-hot??"four top-11 finishes in his last five starts, including a T-9 at the Porsche Singapore Classic and a T-11 at The Players against an elite field. With 2 PGA Tour wins in 2024 (the Scottish Open and Canadian Open), he’s got the clutch factor to contend. I like his chances, and if the putter heats up, he could be in the mix come Sunday.

His silky-smooth swing and elite iron play??"ranking 5th in Strokes Gained: Approach and 12th in SG: Tee-to-Green for the 2025 season??"perfectly suit Augusta’s demand for precision and creativity. Fleetwood’s been in fine form too, with five top-25 finishes in his last eight worldwide starts, including a T-7 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. At +4000 odds, he’s a value pick with a real shot to contend, especially given his knack for stepping up in big moments (like his Ryder Cup heroics).

His length off the tee (averaging over 310 yards) and improving iron play should suit Memorial Park’s need for power and precision. He has a bit of an upward trajectory and could be a contender here.

Perez, a DP World Tour winner, is coming off two recent top 20s and has the length and ball-striking to hang around at Memorial this week. He’s had a solid 2023 so far, with a T14 at The Players Championship, and his experience in big events suggests he can handle pressure if Rory and Scottie are ‘off’. If he gets hot with the putter, the Frenchman could be a lively sleeper here.

The flat season is only a few days old, and I’m already reaching for the stars. In my tiny brain, I’ve convinced myself that Liam Young’s MAHARAJJAH might have a place chance here at a whopping price. Three recent spins up in Dundalk should see him fit enough, but it’s the 2 stall that’s the real attraction here. Low numbers have a distinctive advantage at Leopardstown, and I’m hopeful he can capitalize on that. His three DD runs weren’t exactly tailed off that this price would be justified. He ran quite well. He’s 4, open to improvement, and the booking of Chris Hayes adds confidence. He’s a long shot, but they place too!

THE HIGHWAY RAT can surely outrun this price. Runs well fresh, having won or placed 1st time up 3 of the last 4 seasons. Has run his best races with a cut in the ground, is a 5-time winner at the trip, and despite the top weight, I think he ticks enough boxes to warrant a small each-way poke in a competitive little handicap.

With very little form on show, this might be the worst race of all time. Most of these might never win one. Conor O'Dwyer saddles one here, a 10 y/o who is very lightly raced, is actually a winner here, and might be worth chancing at big odds. Everything has to be taken on chance though, but if she shows up, she should beat half of these. Plus, she has ground in her favor and is a course winner at least. Risky.
