For Her Glory 9/10 Headlines Southwell With Strong Claims
We kick off our Tuesday round-up with a confident tip in the 15:30 at Southwell. Oisin Murphy, one of the most reliable jockeys in the UK, takes the reins aboard the Olly Murphy-trained For Her Glory, who is currently priced at 9/10. This race is a 1m 7f 182y hurdle on good ground, and conditions look ideal for the six-year-old. Her recent second place at Wincanton on similar going suggests she’s poised to go one better here. With the trainer boasting a 22% strike rate at the track this season, she looks a rock-solid favourite. If you’re building an accumulator today, she’s an essential inclusion — check today's accumulator tips for full suggestions.
Competitive Action at Newcastle With Multiple Betting Angles
Over at Newcastle, it’s an evening card that kicks off at 17:45. The 18:15, a 13-runner handicap over 1m 2f 42y, is one of the more competitive races of the day. With a tricky field and top weights carrying stiff penalties, savvy punters might consider an each-way play on Tiber Flow at 12/1. He has shown promise on Tapeta, and with a low draw, he could spring a surprise in a tough field.
Later on, in the 20:45, another 13-runner affair over 1m 5y, keep an eye on Bold Territory at 16/1. While lightly raced, this gelding has shown promise in similar conditions, and his sixth at Wolverhampton last month hinted at untapped potential.

Wolverhampton’s Evening Combines Decent Favourites With Long-Shot Potential
The action at Wolverhampton features several competitive handicaps on the Tapeta surface. The 19:30 (1m 142y) field is a tightly packed 13-runner contest. Short-priced favourite Clik Munny (5/2) might appeal to some, but at 10/1, Sunset Bay offers more enticing each-way value. With fast-finishing sprint performances on similar surfaces in the past month, this Michael Bell-trained entry is worth a closer look.
At 20:30, keep an eye on Dusk Damsel at a massive 25/1. She might have disappointed on her last couple of outings, but the step up in trip and a reduction in class could help her bounce back, making her one for your each-way selections.
Pontefract’s Day Card: Low-Key but Worth a Look
Pontefract may not feature the standout selections of Southwell or Newcastle today, but it does offer some solid punting opportunities. The pick of the card is the 15:15 (1m 6y), where Tim Easterby’s Robusto, priced at 7/4, looks strong after a clean victory here 21 days ago. Punters looking for an accumulator could do worse than teaming him with For Her Glory.
Value Bets: Big Prices to Consider
For those chasing value, Tuesday's long-shot category throws up plenty of interest. Two in particular deserve close attention:
- Boom Boom Boris in the 16:00 at Southwell (66/1) – A speculative pick, but the horse does occasionally show flashes of ability, and this field isn’t the strongest.
- Sunriseontheboyne in the 20:15 at Newcastle (25/1) – This mare has run creditably in higher-class fields and could be overpriced in an open handicap.
Best Bets Summary
If you’re looking to narrow the field, here are our five standout picks from today:
- For Her Glory, 15:30 Southwell – 9/10
- Robusto, 15:15 Pontefract – 7/4
