17:00 Tramore Tips — Sunday 19th April 2026

For our spotlight race at 17:00 Tramore, we’re firmly behind **In The Trenches** to land the spoils. Gavin Patrick Cromwell’s charge, with Keith Donoghue in the plate, makes for an incredibly potent combination over fences on good ground. This horse has been knocking on the door with remarkable persistence this season, as evidenced by his form figures which include a trio of runner-up finishes. Indeed, the key trends perfectly highlight his reliability, showing he’s been placed in three of his last five outings – a testament to his consistency.

His official rating of 112 means he's perfectly pitched here, and while the 1/10 odds reflect his strong favouritism, they are fully justified by his recent performances and the calibre of his connections. This looks a gilt-edged opportunity for him to finally get his head in front.

For an each-way play, **Marelly** offers intriguing value. He’s shown glimpses of ability that suggest he could outperform expectations and snatch a place at a decent price. However, In The Trenches is our firm banker.
