5 places in three huge Irish fields today, and our tip for every extra place race

Betfred is paying extra places on 7 races today. Three of them pay 5 places, and they are big fields: 28 runners in the 14:02 at the Curragh, 22 in the 15:12 there and 24 in the 16:00 at Cork. At Worcester, our biggest value pick of the day is a 20/1 shot in the opening race.

Where the extra place helps most

LEXIE’S MOON in the 12:10 at Worcester is our biggest price and has the biggest gap on our model: forecast at 20/1, against our tissue price of 5.71. Bryan Carver rides for Laura Horsfall in a 15-runner race paying 4 places.

THE DOG THIEF (12:45 Worcester, forecast 11/2, tissue 2.83) is the other big value call, with Jack Andrews riding for T Ellis. It is also a leg in today’s Daily Lucky 15, and Betfred’s extra places apply to each way multiples too.

In the 5-place races, a big field means more horses to beat, but also more chance of a price. Our Irish tip INVINCIBLE WILL is a 7/1 shot in the 22-runner 15:12 at the Curragh, and LADY MARY HEATH (7/2) runs in the 28-runner 14:02.

Today’s money back race is the 13:55 at Worcester, where our 4/1 value pick runs.
