1 minute John O'Keeffe returns with a couple tips from the only meeting in Ireland, Tipperary.
6.40 TIPPERARY
Tipperary Town Apprentice Handicap
HAVANA NOTION - 6/1
HAVANA NOTION is a risky but interesting contender in the 5f apprentice handicap at Tipperary. He’s won this race the last two years and is now 8lb lower than his 2023 win. A poor run in May raises concerns, though it may have been a one-off. With proven form at the track and a recent solid effort in March behind in-form Amenri, he could bounce back for an in-form yard and at 6/1 worth a crack!
7.10 TIPPERARY
Racing Again Tomorrow Fillies Handicap
JUST BEFORE - 5/1
JUST BEFORE looks well treated off 74, a full 10lb below her all-weather mark, and has strong form in the book. She was third in a Cork maiden behind Oaks-placed Minnie Hauk and has beaten subsequent winners like Bella Isabella. Her recent third at the Curragh over 6f showed promise, and the step up in trip should suit. With a classy pedigree and proven ability, she's a serious player in this grade.
