A Nicky Henderson runner at Southwell and a goal glut at the Emirates tonight are today’s selections in an attempt to follow up on yesterday’s success.
By Niall Cronin
In the 1.10 at Southwell today half of the six-runner field are formerly Irish trained and it’s the Nicky Henderson recruit BE THERE IN FIVE that will take all the stopping.
I actually used to ride this fella out for Philip Dempsey before he made the switch to Henderson’s yard and he’s a proper horse.
He won a point-to-point in Summerhill and subsequently went on win his maiden hurdle at Cheltenham in December 2009. He finished third in his first run over fences but he’s capable of much better and I reckon he has what it takes to get past a previously tipped horse, Hollo Ladies.
The main event in the Premier League tonight is Arsenal v Man City and it’s the kind of the game that could see a glut of goals. Boylesports are offering 2/1 for 3.5 goals or more to be scored tonight. We’ll take a bit of that.
JOE’s Punts:
Be There In Five (Southwell, 1.10pm, 3pts win)
Arsenal v Man City (3.5 goals or more, 2pts)
