Newsboy's ITV4 tips for Tuesday, including Welsh Grand National selection from Chepstow

THE BIG DOG can give his rivals weight and a beating in the Coral Welsh Grand National Handicap Chase (2.50) at Chepstow today.

Trained in Co Kildare by Peter Fahey, the nine-year-old followed a head margin in the Munster National at Limerick in October with a three-and-a-half-length call in Navan’s Troytown Handicap Chase at the end of last month.

Top weight and a 5lb higher mark may not be enough to stop Aidan Coleman’s mount from racking up the hat-trick.

The Grade 2 Coral Finale Junior Hurdle (1.40) ranks as a good opportunity for COMFORT ZONE to resume winning ways after a last-time-out third to subsequent Grade 1 scorer Lossiemouth at Fairyhouse.

The returning RED ROOKIE looks well treated in the Coral Get Closer To The Action Handicap Chase (1.05), and JUST A DIME is taken to prove ahead of the assessor in the Coral Racing Club Handicap Hurdle (2.10).

At Kempton, EDWARDSTONE will be hard to beat in the Grade 2 Ladbrokes Desert Orchid Chase (2.30) after his impressive nine-length margin in the top-level Tingle Creek Chase at Sandown at the beginning of the month.

Market leader BOOTHILL stands out in the Grade 2 Ladbrokes Wayward Lad Novices’ Chase (1.20), while I SPY A DIVA can keep up her winning run in the Ladbrokes ‘We Play Together’ Mares’ Handicap Hurdle (1.55).

Ben Pauling’s red-hot form points to YOUR DARLING in the Ladbrokes Play “1-2-Free” On Football Handicap Chase (3.09), and smart Flat racer POSTMARK looks an interesting winter recruit in the Ladbrokes Daily Odds Boosts Introductory Juvenile Hurdle (12.45).
