The Punt Acca: Mark Boylan's three horse racing tips on Saturday

Rexem (1.30 Cheltenham)

There was lots to like about what this improving youngster produced when winning a 2m7f novice hurdle readily at Killarney in August, and he can bring up a hat-trick on wins in this race for the John McConnell team. Rexem stays strongly, handles decent ground and has enough experience to defy carrying top weight.

Shangrilama (2.35 Leopardstown)

It appears as though this Noel Meade-trained filly is getting better with every run and she can make the breakthrough at the fifth attempt under jockeys' championship-chasing Colin Keane. She was only just touched off in a maiden last time at Thurles and now steps into nursery company with a mark of 73. If continuing her upward curve, she should be bang there again.

Life In The Park (4.25 Cheltenham)

Henry de Bromhead has a knack of turning useful hurdlers into even better chasers and Life In The Park looks the latest example of that theme. A ready win on his chasing debut at Listowel last month indicated that we could be dealing with a Graded-class performer and decent ground is no issue to him.
