PUNCHESTOWN Festival day 4
Free Horse Racing TIpsYou are here: Home / Free Horse Racing TIps /
Our NAP of Punchestown unfortunately did not come off. We landed our Nap of Cheltenham and Aintree but Walking On Air jumping did not hold up at a crucial stage of the race. I still think he is ahead of the handicapper and we will see an improved horse next season.
Today we have one free tip form Punchestown.

4:15 Punchestown
KILCRUIT 4/1 generally – 1 POINT WIN
KILCRUIT has been saved for the Punchestown Festival and he will come here in tip top shape. It is not an after thought, this is his gold cup race. He has not done bad over fences in 3 starts this season with a win on debut and then he was stepped up to Grade 1 company, coming home 3rd to Gerri Colombe, not beaten far, and that horse has gone on to great things since. He then went to Leopardstown for at the Dublin Racing Festival and ran an ok race behind Mighty Potter. That was the last we saw him but he returns here at a course he absolutely loves. His Punchestown record is exceptional and reads 1141 with only defeat at the course coming against State Man, as a novice hurdler last season.
He now lines up here in a handicap and I am confident he is a better horse than a handicapper.
Willie Mullins has won this race 6 out of the last 7 years with similar horses to KILCRUIT.
If we were going into this race in a bit better form, he could easily have been a raised stake but we bet accordingly. WIN.
Good Luck
