Betting Expert’s Stephen Harris has selected his most confident bet of the meeting at Doncaster, while Editor Vincent Finegan serves up two tips at the Curragh on Saturday.

Vincent Finegan’s Ireland Tips

Pickersgill 2.50 Curragh, 6f. Flat Maiden

Pickersgill had Aidan O'Brien's contender Smiling almost three lengths behind her when the pair met at Naas last October. Both fillies improved their placings next time out with runner-up finishes and look to be the ones to concentrate on here. With Pickersgill already having form over this course and distance in similar ground to which they will encounter today she should represent the value.

Indigo Five 5.10 Curragh, 1m. Flat Handicap

Indigo Five had four of today's rivals behind her when finishing fourth in the Irish Lincolnshire over this course and distance two weeks ago. Off an unchanged rating with Wesley Joyce claiming 5lbs off her weight it is difficult to see her out of the frame.

Stephen Harris’ UK Tip

Helmrock (NAP), 1.50 Doncaster 1m Spring Mile Handicap

Daniel and Claire Kubler do really well every season with limited resources, and their smart handicapper could be at a fitness advantage here after two promising placed efforts on the all-weather. The booking of the excellent Billy Loughnane increases confidence, and a bit of cut in the ground over this straight mile should suit ideally.
