🐎 Today’s Daily Trio selections

Christmas Day could come early as Aidan O’Brien sends the horse to take on the better fancied stablemate Endorsement in the 2:30 at Tipperary. Endorsement is slight odds on at the time of writing but I much prefer the chances of Christmas Day to cause a minor upset. Christmas Day is a 450,000 Camelot colt and had a nice introduction when third at Galway last month. I can see huge improvement and he is one for the trackers irrelevant of what happens today.

All the stats point to Just Chasing May having a great chance in the 2:10 at Worcester. Today is the horses chase debut so we need to hope for a good round of jumping but the engine is certainly there and this is a low quality race and we know he likes Worcester having won over hurdles here a few months back.

Carlton has looked regressive in recent starts over jumps but today is a golden opportunity to regain the winning thread. James Owen’s horse is fit from the flat and should improve for the step up in trip today (4:40 Worcester). He has Cinderello as the main rival but ours is rated 93 and the race favourite Cindarello is rated 78. Class should tell.

Daily Trio selections: Christmas Day (2:30 Tipperary), Just Chasing May (2:30 Worcester), Carlton (4:40 Worcester).
