Martin Pipe Handicap Hurdle Tips
AIR OF ENTITLEMENT (Each-Way) looks fairly treated in the Martin Pipe and returns to a track where she won a mares' novice hurdle 12 months ago. If putting a disappointing last run behind her, Henry de Bromhead's mare has the stamina and class to run a big race.
Recommendation: Air Of Entitlement (Each-Way) - 10/1 with Unibet (5 places)
