Wednesday's pick Amalfi Coast won,the 10/11 favourite made all the running but was strongly pressed by Diamant Damhsa in the final furlong. Despite going all out in the closing stages he only just about held on winning by a head.
There are 8 races at Tipperary on Thursday where the main event is the 3.45 when 19 start the Junction Handicap Hurdle. Oneknightmoreihope last won at Naas in early December and he was a very creditable 2nd in a handicap hurdle at Clonmel a week ago and he should go one better here. Groveman picked up his career best win at Cork 12 days ago,the increase in trip suited him that day and with this race over the same distance he should have more to offer. The other main threat is Isotope who was a very creditable 7th in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown 22 days ago,this field looks more competitive for him and he can definitely make his presence felt. The other two worth a look are Humm Baby who was a course and distance winner a year ago and a very good 4th at Punchestown 19 days ago so he definitely enters calculations as does Rebel Early who picked up her last win at Navan in March and was a respectable 6th when last seen at Punchestown at the beginning of this month so don't rule either out.
Big race prediction: 16: Oneknightmoreihope.
