TODAY'S TIPS (THURSDAY)

Alan Morris picks out two tips from Yarmouth and Kempton this Thursday with selections not to ignore. 14:39 YARMOUTH

A four-runner Hands and Heels Apprentice Handicap and a lot will depend on the battle to control a reasonable pace with Pleasant Man and Hibernate possible front-runners trying to avoid setting each other alight. Hibernate is flexible regarding trip and bred for middle-distances and this scenario should suit. This may not play out so well for maiden The Ubermensch from behind in a hands and heels race.

HIBERNATE (WIN)

19:43 KEMPTON

An interesting race with a question posed by highly-rated hurdler Tripoli Flyer making his handicap debut after three educational qualifying runs. He also has an entry over 1m 6f at Southwell this week to give a hint that this test around Kempton may not be enough. With some opponents out of form or looking badly-handicapped Master Vintner looks solid opposition after a strong second over course and distance. The 4yo looks to have been kept back for this 0-90.
