There are five meetings across the UK and Ireland on Tuesday, including day three of the Listowel Harvest Festival.

Listowel (2.05-5.35pm) is one of a quartet of Flat meetings that also includes Redcar (1.50-5.20), Yarmouth (2.15-6.15) and the all-weather card at Newcastle (4.50-8.30). The day’s solitary National Hunt card comes from Uttoxeter (2.00-4.55).

We have three selections for Tuesday’s action with our nap in the hands of Oisin Murphy, who makes a rare foray to his home county of Kerry to ride at Listowel.

Horse racing tips: Listowel 2.40

Frankie Dettori may not be appearing in Listowel this week, after negotiations to bring his farewell tour to Ireland’s south-west corner came up short. But punters in Kerry will be out in force to see another multiple champion jockey in Oisin Murphy – the man born in nearby Killarney who is now a household name and three-time champion rider in Britain.

His presence at this meeting will be box office and it’s notable that he rides for Aidan O’Brien later on the card – a possible glimpse of the future perhaps – but he’s taken to score at the first time of asking on ZEPHRON for trainer Denis Cullen in this 7f contest.

The Ivawood gelding is on a long losing streak, now standing at 19, but his most recent effort was encouraging. That came in late July at Gowran Park (7f, soft), where he attracted market support but was always in rear and unable to challenge in the hands of Billy Lee.

He did make late gains to finish third, however, and returning to a mile now looks to be a positive on that evidence. The handicapper has eased him another 3lb to a career-low mark of 57 and it’s one he really should be taking advantage of sooner rather than later. Murphy can exact a big tune from him.

Horse racing tips: Yarmouth 4.35

A field of 10 contest this Class 3 fillies’ handicap. Noor Bano, Catwalk Model and Musical Tribute all won last time out and have to be respected but a better option could be MISS MAI TAI for James Fanshawe and Callum Shepherd. 

She has really found her form of late: in May she got off the mark on her fourth start for this trainer, at Leicester (6f, good to firm), then added wins at Goodwood and Lingfield before finishing second by half a length back at the Midlands course last month when going for a four-timer.

Despite that run of form, she has gone up only a total of 7lb in the ratings and there may be some more mileage in her mark. She is in a better race this time but consequently carries a low weight and can go well again.

Horse racing tips: Uttoxeter 2.35

This two-mile novices’ hurdle is a good little contest, with last-time-out scorers Oliver’s Travels and Jeudidee set to lead the challenge to hurdling newcomer WILLIETHEBUILDER.

That pair are both penalised for their successes and will be giving 7lb and 5lb respectively to Dan Skelton’s recruit. A gelded son of Arcadio, Williethebuilder shaped nicely in one point-to-point start and then ran well in spring bumpers at Fairyhouse and Punchestown for trainer Declan Queally.

He was clear second best in the latter and was subsequently sold for €110,000 before linking up with Skelton. He makes obvious appeal starting out over timber and is likely to know his job first time up.

The Skelton team are starting to emerge from their summer lull and runners are reappearing – and this four-year-old should have a bright future in front of him.
