Punchestown Festival Tips: Best Bets For Friday

We are already on to the penultimate day of the Punchestown Festival.
It has been a difficult week for punters, with a number of big-priced winners going in, leaving betting sites in a jubilant mood.
Day four has more entertaining races set to go to post, and hopefully, we can find some winners.
Punchestown Festival Day 4 Tips
Tip 1: 17:25 - Native Speaker 0.5pts Each-Way - 7/1 With Bet365 (5 Places)
With several odds-on and well-fancied favourites across the card today, I am going to concentrate on this wide-open Novice Handicap Chase for some value.
We have seen many outsiders come out on top throughout the festival so far, and I'm hoping that this race will follow suit.
I have chosen two each-way bets in the race, starting with the Henry de Bromhead-trained Native Speaker.
A solid jumper and consistent sort, he seems to be progressing nicely over fences, and the hope is that he takes a further step forward today.
His trainer isn't enjoying the best of weeks, but you can never write off one of his horses, and Native Speaker could be the one to turn it around at a price of 7/1 with the best horse racing betting sites.
Tip 2: 17:25 - Moon D'orange 0.5pts Each-Way - 16/1 With Bet365 (5 Places)
The second selection in this two-mile four-furlong race is Moon D'orange.
John McConnell is a very shrewd trainer, and his seven-year-old arrives in decent form.
A winner at Cheltenham in January, a bad jump early in the Jack Richards Handicap Chase at the festival put an end to his race.
Since then, he bounced back to finish fourth at the same track last month, and a similar effort here could see him grab a place at the very least.
The booking of jockey Sean Bowen is another major plus.
Tip 3: 18:40 - Constitution Hill 1pt Win - Evens With Bet365
I admit that it's not the most original choice, but backing Constitution Hill at Evens is a no-brainer in my eyes.
Yes, he takes on State Man again, who has won the last two renewals of this race and arrives here after a difficult season, but let's not forget it is Constitution Hill we are talking about.
His falls at Cheltenham and Aintree mean that he arrives here relatively fresh, and if he starts to respect his hurdles again, he is the one to beat.
State Man is a fantastic horse in his own right, loves it here, and will put up a brave fight in one of the clashes of the meeting.
