Tip for this race
All today's tips ›La Tulipe Noire is our pick at Punchestown, and the progressive profile is what sets her apart in a 12-runner seven-furlong contest. She is rated 62, only four pounds behind the joint top-rated pair Tai Tam Bay and Free Solo, so the gap is narrow and an upward trajectory can bridge it. Those two are the obvious dangers on figures, with Staywitherjohnny, on 56, the other to keep onside. This is far from a confident call, but La Tulipe Noire is the selection.

P J F Murphy 2/6
Free Solo steps up from a fourth last time out just 14 days ago, has run over today's trip and is rated joint-top in this field of twelve by our numbers, with a 66 against his official 58. Yet to win in his last six, he's the one to beat only if he can find more consistency.

La Tulipe Noire arrives fresh from a fourth last time out just nine days ago, her best finish in a run of six, and she has run over today's trip. Our figures rank her third of 12, which makes her a sound selection despite being yet to win in recent starts.

Tariff arrives in cracking form, a winner last time out, a second two starts back and a winner three starts back, and he has run over today's trip, but he's quick back after nine days. Carrying 140 lb from draw 9, he looks held by our eighth-of-12 ranking.

Tai Tam Bay arrives fresh from a run 14 days ago and has run over today's trip, while our rating of 66 ranks her top of the dozen, 11 lb clear of her official 55. The risk is a poor recent book, with a seventh last time out and winless in her last six starts.

Tempted Angel is winless in her last five, finishing unplaced last time, an eighth two starts back and a sixth three starts back, and she returns after 58 days off. She has run over today's trip and is rated 46 by us, 11th of 12, so she is hard to fancy from stall 12.

Winless in his last five, Racing Royalty was unplaced last time out, after a seventh two starts back and a fifth three starts back, though he has run over today's trip and is back after 24 days. Our rating of 54 sits above his official 48, but 132 lb from stall 1 is a lot to carry.

Capolinea is winless in her last four, finishing sixth last time out and unplaced in the two runs before that, which makes her hard to fancy off 129 lb from stall 10. On the plus side, she has run over today's trip and returns after a fairly fresh 22 days.

Micasso is winless in his last six, with a sixth last time out and a seventh two starts back, and a fourth four starts back is the best of that sequence. He has run over today's trip and is back quickly after eight days, but ranking tenth of 12 on our figures makes him hard to fancy from stall 5.

Third last time out, and a winner four starts back, she arrives fit after 17 days and has run over today's trip, though a seventh two starts back shows her consistency wobbles. Carrying 128 lb from stall seven, she sits fifth of twelve on our rating of 55.
