Tuesday Southwell racing top tip: Trapista looking to add to O'Neill's success
Jonjo O'Neill's yard has been in top form recently, and Tipstrr's racing expert Steve Jones believes that Trapista is in good shape to add to his stable's recent successes at Southwell this afternoon.
The early market is headed by Ile De Jersey and Herewegohoney, who was the only one to finish in a weaker three-runner mares' handicap at Catterick on Monday. Whether she runs again less than 24 hours later remains to be seen but she will have a 7lbs penalty in stronger company if she does.
Meanwhile, close favourite Ile De Jersey will need to have fully recovered from a last-fence fall at Taunton earlier this month, where she was leading at the time, plus she has neverĀ been tested over this distance before.

Jonjo O'Neill has his runners in good shape, with three of his last eight finishers winning, including two of the last three, both of which were ridden by Jonjo O'Neill Jnr, who is also on board today.
O'Neill's other four mounts all came home either second, third or fourth, while two of the seven chasers that O'Neill has sent to today's venue so far this year have won, with another three finishing in the first four.
