Salmon to win again

Charlie Swan's Leopardstown tips:12.25: Everybody thinks these Leopardstown maidens are real hot, but sometimes they cut up and this looks one of them. Farmer Brown was a good horse once and he seems to be coming back to himself. Royaldou looks a danger, but he has been disappointing.

Selection: Farmer Brown

12.55: Pantarez was a pretty good flat horse some years ago for David Wachman and he looks to be coming back into a bit of form. He loves soft ground too. Bonne Noel could be an each-way bet.

Selection: Pantarez

1.30: Patsy Hall looked a real tough customer when he won at Cheltenham and that's the type you'll want today. Cailin Alainn looks the obvious one to beat, but it can get very testing around here and it might not be ideal for her.

Selection: Patsy Hall

2.00: If Rosaker runs up to the form he showed behind Brave Inca in the Hatton's Grace, he'll be the one to beat, but he did have a hard race. Emotional Moment will love the ground, but Celestial Wave looks the up-and-comer. I'll stay with outsiders and go each way on Strong Project as well.

Selection: Celestial Wave

2.35: I'll take Beef Or Salmon to win again and beat L'Ami. I would love War Of Attrition to win, but I have my doubts about him getting home over three miles on this sort of ground. When it gets soft at Leopardstown, it can be very testing. The place doesn't seem to drain as well as it used to.

Selection: Beef Or Salmon

3.10: A lot of these look like horses that will have half an eye on the Pierse Hurdle here in a couple of weeks, but I thought Artistic Lad ran a nice fourth on his last race. Escrea could be a danger.

Selection: Artistic Lad

3.40: Christy Roche often has a good one for the bumpers here and Wheels Up may be one to beat those with form.

Selection: Wheels Up
