ITV Racing tips: one key runner from each of the seven races on ITV4 on Tuesday
1.10 Leopardstown
Pertemps Network Handicap Hurdle, 3m
Punting puzzles don't get much trickier than this big-field handicap hurdle. Given his form on the Flat since finishing fifth in last season's Fred Winter, Coltor looks one of the likelier types, while cases can be made for many others including A Great View, Gentlemansgame, Duffle Coat and Maze Runner.
SPOTLIGHT TIP: Coltor
Good juvenile hurdler last season, smart form in valuable Flat handicaps, should go well
Sigurd won two races over course and distance last winter, including this contest, and is back on familiar ground after running over Cheltenham's cross-country course last month. No Cruise Yet was a well-backed winner at Sedgefield this month and Representing Bob has form figures of 112 this season.
SPOTLIGHT TIP: No Cruise Yet
Had a bit in hand at Sedgefield so a 6lb rise looks manageable
The Punt Daily: Robbie Wilders' two horseracing tips at Leopardstown on Tuesday
Dornan Engineering Christmas Hurdle (Grade 1), 3m
Flooring Porter, who won this race last season en route to Stayers' Hurdle glory, will be aiming to get back on track after falling at the second-last in last month's Lismullen Hurdle. Klassical Dream makes his seasonal return after finishing last term with a stylish success at Punchestown on his first try at three miles.
SPOTLIGHT TIP: Flooring Porter
Winner of this race last year, Stayers' Hurdle winner, optimum trip with ground to suit
Sky Bet Extra Places Every Day Handicap Hurdle, 2m3½f
Findthetime looks a typical lightly raced improver for trainer Nicky Richards, who brings along his young horses so adeptly. Laskadine burst into life around this time last year and has slipped to an attractive mark.
SPOTLIGHT TIP: Findthetime
Battled well for 2m1f novice win last month and can improve again over this longer trip
A Plus Tard, whose Cheltenham Gold Cup claims were strengthened while he stood in his box on Sunday, gets the chance to put down a marker in a race he won impressively last year. The wide-margin Betfair Chase winner looks the one to beat, with 2018 scorer Kemboy, Galvin and Delta Work heading the opposition.
SPOTLIGHT TIP: A Plus Tard
Won this event last year, Cheltenham Gold Cup runner-up, stands out after Haydock win
Tuesday's free racing tips: six horses to consider putting in your multiples
Ballymaloe Relish Beginners Chase, 2m5f
Galopin Des Champs won at the Cheltenham and Punchestown festivals in the spring and returns for his chasing debut. Stablemate Blue Sari gives Willie Mullins a strong hand, while Gordon Elliott's three-strong team is headed by Drinmore third Fury Road.
SPOTLIGHT TIP: Galopin Des Champs
Cheltenham handicap and Punchestown Grade 1 winner over hurdles; notable chasing debutant
3.30 Leopardstown
Midland Legal Solicitors INH Flat Race, 2m
Leopardstown's closing bumper is a late addition to the ITV schedule following the abandonment of Leicester, and all eyes will be on the Willie Mullins-trained debutant Redemption Day. Gordon Elliott fields two ex-point-to-pointers in opposition in Music Drive and Bravo Team.
SPOTLIGHT TIP: Redemption Day
£40,000 2yo; dam sister to Champion Bumper winner; yard won this last year with Ramillies
