Teescomponentsyess 14/1 – Tramore’s Hidden Gem at 19:12
Monday’s racing action throws us a fascinating curve at Tramore, where Teescomponentsyess lines up in the 19:12 over 2m on good-to-yielding ground. Priced at a juicy 14/1, this runner is exactly the type punters love to latch onto for value. The booking of the experienced Danny Mullins is particularly eye-catching, as Mullins boasts an impressive 18% strike rate over similar conditions at this track in the past two seasons.
Teescomponentsyess’s form figures may not leap off the page immediately, but a closer analysis of his performances over soft and yielding ground suggests that he can significantly outperform expectations here. Two starts back, he finished a respectable fourth at Navan in a tougher contest over a similar trip, running on late in a manner that suggests this stiff Tramore finish could suit. Combine that with a handicap mark that has been eased by 5lbs since then, and you have the recipe for a potential upset. This race has a field of 16, one of the most competitive of the day, but punters seeking high-value each-way bets should definitely keep a close eye on this one.

Call Me Betty 12/1 – Newcastle 20:00 Each-Way Gold
The evening card at Newcastle also presents its fair share of betting intrigue, with Call Me Betty a stand-out at 12/1 in the 20:00 over 7f 15y on the all-weather Tapeta surface. Trained by Ewan Whillans, this four-year-old filly is no stranger to Newcastle’s synthetic track, posting two career-best runs here during last winter’s campaign. She was blocked for a clear run on her last outing at Wolverhampton but still managed to flash home for sixth in a big field, suggesting she’s in excellent heart.
The drop back to 7f combined with Connor Beasley taking the reins—he maintains a solid 14% strike rate at Newcastle—gives cause for optimism. This race is another large-field affair, with 14 lining up, but Call Me Betty’s ability to navigate traffic is a crucial asset in a race likely run at a frantic pace. If the pace collapses late on, she seems perfectly positioned to pick up the pieces. At 12/1, and with some bookmakers offering four places, this filly screams each-way value.

Fille Unique 13/2 – Newcastle 19:30 Worth a Punt
Earlier on the Newcastle card, Fille Unique, a lightly raced three-year-old trained by Michael Dods, makes an appeal at 13/2 in the 19:30. She has only three career starts to her name, but her maiden win at Wolverhampton over 6f showcased a strong turn of foot. Given she’s unexposed on the all-weather, there’s every reason to believe there’s improvement to come at this 6f trip.
Paul Mulrennan, who rides today, boasts a 16% strike rate at Newcastle’s Tapeta track and tends to do well for Dods when teaming up there. Fille Unique faces some seasoned handicappers in this 11-runner field, but her weight-for-age allowance could give her the edge. The AI confidence rating of 60% is another boost to her case, putting her among the higher-rated runners of the evening despite her price. Factor her potential progression into your calculations and compare these runners head-to-head before committing your stake.
Redcar’s Competitive Opener at 15:12
At mid-afternoon, Redcar’s 15:12 over 7f on good-to-firm going provides punters with an intriguing puzzle. This 14-runner affair features a mix of unexposed three-year-olds and seasoned handicappers. While the AI picks have struggled to settle on one clear standout from the group, it’s worth noting that runners drawn high (stalls 9 or higher) tend to fare better on Redcar’s straight course when the ground is on the firmer side. Keep an eye on the live betting markets and latest results to gauge any late support for outsiders.
Risk and Reward: Tramore’s 18:12 Marathon
If you enjoy taking a swing at longer-priced runners in marathon trips, Tramore’s 18:12 over 2m5f deserves attention. This field of 16 includes several unreliable types, making it a minefield for favourite backers and an opportunity for those with a sharp eye. Keep tabs on the going as softening conditions could play havoc with some shorter-priced selections. This is exactly the kind of race to explore building an accumulator if you’re feeling adventurous, with double-figure odds aplenty to play with.
