Punchestown Festival 2019 Postcast: Day Three Tipping | Ryanair Novice Chase | La Touche Cup

May 01, 2019, 02:51 PM

Lee Mottershead, David Jennings, Paul Kealy and Paddy Power's Tom Nugent with their thoughts on all eight races on Day Three of the Punchestown Festival 2019.

On the show:
- David Jennings and Paul Kealy are in agreement that Snugsborough Hall could take all the beating in the Pigsback.com Handicap Chase, in fact, he's DJ's banker of the week.

- In a below par La Touche, the panel agree that Josie's Orders will justify short-priced favouritism, but there is speculation about the origins of his name.

- In the Grade 1 Ryanair Novice Chase, DJ remains loyal to one of his favourites, Defi Du Seuil, while Paul Kealy has been repeatedly watching replays of Chacun Pour Soi wining last time - and thinks he could be a top class horse.
