Paul Kealy has a crack at the trifecta rollover and Placepot at Warwick

There are plenty of incentives to bet with the Tote this weekend as there is up to £10 back if your Placepot goes down in the first leg at Warwick, while there's also a £22,000 Trifecta carryover.
My suggested Placepot perm is listed, but the Trifecta is certainly worth a second look as the chosen race is Warwick's featured McCoy Contractors Civil Engineering Classic Handicap Chase (3.00).
I tend mostly to play Exactas and Trifectas at the Cheltenham Festival for every handicap and some of the more competitive Graded races, and the usual perm would be five or six horses.
A five-horse perm comes to 60 bets, but it goes up to 120 for six and with only 13 runners, I wouldn't want to go quite that far.
My usual strategy would be to put the two horses I like the most at the head of the market with a few outsiders, and the chosen pair at and .
Notachance is the obvious favourite and was given a good write-up by Alan King in his Racing Post Weekender column on Wednesday, while Captain Chaos was second last year and is handicapped to go close again.
He has gone off at 33-1, 50-1 and 50-1 for his three starts this year, but has been supported all week and is back in headgear for the first time this season on ground he relishes.
is the main selection and is joined by , who comes here after more than a year off, but has gone well fresh on bad ground in the past and has finished in the first three on 11 of his 17 chase starts.
The final choice is , another with plenty of heavy-ground form and in career-best form when winning last time.
