The Punt Acca: Lee Sharp's three horse racing tips on Tuesday

Three horses to include in a multiple on Tuesday . . .


Favour And Fortune (2.10 Hereford)

He was 2-2 in bumpers before taking his chance at Cheltenham, where he finished 14th in the Champion Bumper. We have already seen a few of the participants running over hurdles this season, most notably Captain Teague, who won the Grade 2 Persian War at Chepstow. However, what is just as encouraging for connections of Favour And Fortune is that the 11th, 12th & 13th have all gone on to win on their hurdling debuts. Providing he can get around without any huge jumping errors, he should win this comfortably and give the Champion Bumper form another slight boost.

Itso Fury (4.00 Exeter)

This is a good opportunity for him to get off to a perfect start for the season, running off a mark of 125. He was second on his handicap debut last year but was unlucky to bump into the Paul Nicholls-trained Irish Hill, who was running off a mark of 116 at the time. He was then stepped up in trip to three miles, where he finished third and fifth in two competitive handicaps, going off favourite and traveling well on both occasions but just not finding enough to get the win. This is a step back into calmer waters and he has shown enough to suggest he can win this.

Cheese The One (5.30 Wolverhampton)

She has been in good form since the blinkers have been applied, winning over this course and distance in August when wearing them for the first time, and has been unlucky not to follow up, having found herself a bit short of room on both of her next two starts. She still ran well on both occasions, and I'd be surprised if she can't pick up a win off her current mark. I'm encouraged to see Harry Davies booked for the ride. He is one of the more promising young jockeys around and can get her home in front.
