TODAYS TIPS (MONDAY)

Matt Polley pinpoints a pair of runners to kick start the working week with a few winners. 14:15 CARLISLE 

Classic Maestro and Hombre De Guerra are both nice young chasing prospects going forward, however the form the Sam Thomas yard are in currently, it’s impossible to look past Steel Ally, 

This will be his chasing debut, but this professional outfit will have him well schooled for this, and his hurdles form suggests he could be a really classy operator over a fence.

STEEL ALLY (WIN)

14:30 KEMPTON 

Sixty Plus is on a roll, but he’s risen a long way in the handicap, and this represents his stiffest task to date.

Busy Being Busy is another on an upward curve, however the vote goes to Saint Anapolino.

He loves good ground around Kempton, and his seasonal debut at Cheltenham should blow away the cobwebs and put him cherry ripe for this.
