Paul Ferguson has one selection for us on Sunday; Sizing Symphony in the Tipperary 4.35. Compare odds and bet.
The pick of the action on Sunday comes from Tipperary, where the Grimes Hurdle is often trial for the Galway Hurdle, while the Galway Plate Trial is also worth paying close attention to.
Gigginstown House Stud and Willie Mullins also team up with a couple of likely winners in the shape of Make Your Mark and Devils Bride in the concluding bumper. The former steps up to 3m for the first time and will relish the quick ground, but his price is likely to be pretty short indeed (not known at the time of writing).
Elsewhere on the card Sizing Symphony (4:35) returns from 597 days on the sidelines in the beginners’ chase and he returns under his optimum conditions, as he appeared to relish quick ground when rattling up a hat-trick over hurdles.
The seven-year-old completed the hat-trick at Cheltenham (in October 2011) where he beat the smart Bold Addition and Peckhamecho on good-to-firm ground. Well beaten in Grade 2 company a couple of months later when last seen, he was pitched in against Fingal Bay and Simonsig that day, which clearly indicates he is held in high regard. If near peak fitness, he looks capable of going close despite the lengthy lay-off.
