🐎 Today’s Daily Trio

Overview: Merry Christmas, and what a fantastic day of racing! I can’t get out of visiting the in-laws, so I’ll be sneakily listening to the action then watching all races on catch up in the evening where I hope to watch my three selections sluice home on the bridle.

The only place to start is the King George, the Christmas highlight of the jumping game. This race revolves completely around Gaelic Warrior. I think there are shades of Kauto Star about this horse and will absolutely be backing him to win today. He has the speed to win grade one races at two miles – Kempton is a speed track – and comfortably has the staying ability to win over the 3 mile trip. He looks every inch a King George horse. Fact to File might not win a race this season as I also fancy Jonbon to step up in trip and win the 2026 Ryanair after Gaelic beats him today. The Jukebox Man just isn’t this level of horse. Neither is Djelo. Jango Baie is short in the betting but I think will fall out the back of the TV. I actually think Banbridge is the main danger.

It’s certainly not easy to spell it on your betting slips, but I expect Slanagaibhgoleir to take all the beating over at Down Royal in the beginners chase. Gordon Elliott’s 7 year old will improve from the experience last time out. The form he has on paper looks useless – P/4P048-P6 – but these Irish horses are often target horses and can find improvement when connections deem it convenient.

Torpille Dagrostis should win the last at Limerick and the overnight odds of around 2/1 seem very fair. Her experience should count for a lot in a very winnable race.

Daily Trio selections:
Torpille Dagrostis (3:30 Limerick), Gaelic Warrior (2:30 Kempton), Slanagaibhgoleir (1:23 Down Royal).
