Fairyhouse Betting Tips

Don Jefe didn’t show a great deal in his first couple of starts but Gerard O’Leary’s five-year-old took a massive step forward to win over course and distance last time. There should be more to come now tackling handicaps and 113 is a nice mark.

Leader d’Allier produced a fair performance to finish second behind Ballyfad on stable debut and managed to go one better in good style at Punchestown last time out. He looks like a graded horse on that evidence and can follow up here.

He’s On Fire pulled clear impressively when bolting up at Carlisle on stable debut and the form has since been boosted. Willie Mullins’ five-year-old is likely to be bang in the mix if producing a similar performance but he’s entitled to improve too.

Oldschool Outlaw has progressed into a very smart mare since joining Gordon Elliott and there was lots to like about his impressive Grade 3 victory here in February. Second at the Cheltenham Festival last time out, she looks set to improve for the step up in trip.

Birdie Or Bust returns from a winter break here and she won a novice chase at Listowel nicely back in September. Second in a Grade 3 contest after that, handicaps look like the way to go and her hurdles form suggests she’s well treated off 132 here.

British raider Sixmilebridge was a fair performer over hurdles but fences have facilitated further improvement and he won the Grade 1 Scilly Isles Novices’ Chase when last seen. Connections swerved Cheltenham in favour of this race and he should go well.
