14:45 Leopardstown Tips — Sunday 12th April 2026

Our top pick for the 14:45 Leopardstown is the short-priced but highly promising Searcog. Despite the prohibitive odds of 1/10, Patrick Magee’s charge looks a banker here, ticking all the right boxes and perfectly fitting our key trends. As a young 4yo with a decisive recent win under her belt, Searcog (form: 05469124-) truly stands out. That '1' in her form string indicates she's found her stride and is progressing rapidly. With an Official Rating of 54, she's exceptionally well-placed in this company, and crucially, given her age, there's significant scope for further improvement. Jockey J. M. Sheridan takes the reins again, a partnership that clearly clicked last time out. It's genuinely hard to see anything else troubling her if she performs to that level once more on this Good ground.

For those seeking a bit more value, Alto Sax makes a compelling each-way proposition. This one has shown glimpses of ability and could certainly sneak into the places if the favourite falters or if circumstances dictate a messy finish up front. However, our main confidence firmly rests with Searcog to land the spoils at Leopardstown. Good luck!
