Andy Newton’s Lay Of The Day Horse Racing Tip: Wednesday 29th April
3:40 Punchestown: BUNTING
This Willie Mullins horse seems to always be fairly well-fancied in his race – but the fact remains he’s not won a race in 15.
With his last success coming way back in 2023 at Limerick in a maiden hurdle.
Yes, the ground will be to his liking and is back rated 5lbs lower than his BetMGM 9th.
So, he could pop up at some point with his lower handicap mark – but was still beaten 15 1/2 lengths the last day.
While is it significant that Paul Townend prefers Soir De Garde? With Danny Mullins getting the leg-up on Bunting.
Note: Some picks can drift during the day (obviously we have no control of that) – but I’d say if they hit 8.0+ they are prob best left (for obvious reasons).
