No need to look beyond the obvious at Punchestown

A juicy Pick 6 guarantee of €50,000 is on offer for punters willing to brave the elements at Punchestown today and Low Sun may be just the type to light up the opening novice hurdle (12.30).

Despite jumping poorly at Bellewstown on his Irish debut, he somehow managed to get the job done, displaying a pretty decent engine in the process. If he can improve on his jumping he could be very hard to beat for Willie Mullins and Paul Townend.

It’s difficult to look past Mullins and Townend in the following 2m4f maiden hurdle (1.00) as Getabird should have too much ability for his rivals while Aa Bee See and Arctic Pearl are worth siding with in the following handicap hurdle (1.30).
