An all jumps card at Tramore gets underway at 13:50
"Supreme Doc looked like one to keep on the right side of at this sort of level when scoring with a bit in hand at Downpatrick last time....."
All eyes will be on the Grand National today, but there is also action taking place at Tramore and we have picked out three more SmartPlays on an all jumps card.....
Up The Girls has been running well without winning this season but has a good chance to put that right in the handicap hurdle at 15:30. A three-time point winner, she has finished runner-up on three of her five starts this season, but is weighted to reverse previous form with Volkis O'Blue and has run well on her only previous visit to this track. Few of the others appeal as being particularly well treated but Vicalus would warrant plenty of respect if getting a run.
Big Jemmy ran a good deal better than being pulled up would suggest over hurdles last time, travelling well behind the leaders until before two out in the race won by Volkis O'Blue at Punchestown, and he looks capable of regaining the winning thread from what is a favourable chase mark in the 16:00. John Joe Walsh's gelding has really come good this season, winning over hurdles at Limerick in November and over fences at this track in January, and gets in here off a mark five pounds lower than the one he finished third from over hurdles on his penultimate outing.
Supreme Doc looked like one to keep on the right side of at this sort of level when scoring with a bit in hand at Downpatrick last time so it will be slightly disappointing if he can't add to his tally in the hunter chase at 16:35. He had been running well in points prior to that victory, hasn't too many miles on the clock and is open to more improvement than Annacarton who has been operating at a notch or two below his best of late.
