Harvey\u2019s mount saw off a field that included runners from the powerful Willie Mullins yard, with the first three home all returned at double-figure odds \u2014 a combination that will have rewarded almost nobody but rewarded them very well indeed.<\/p>\n<p>Tell The Boys, the morning preview\u2019s pick under Kevin Sexton for a winning start over flights, and Sonas, the each-way suggestion, were both missing from the frame entirely when it mattered.<\/p>\n<p>Tipster Accountability<\/p>\n<p>Richard Gore\u2019s verdict in the <a href=\"https:\/\/readhorseracing.com\/2026\/08\/08\/wexford-races-today-tips\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Wexford preview<\/a> \u2014 \u201cTell The Boys to make a winning start over flights, with Sonas the each-way play\u201d \u2014 produced neither a win nor a place from the two selections. The saving grace: the site\u2019s advertised 45\/1 Wexford four-fold does not start until the 14:50, so the accumulator survives this result unscathed. None of the four tracked ledger tipsters published Irish selections today; their table sits in <a href=\"https:\/\/readhorseracing.com\/2026\/08\/08\/tipster-review-templegate-kealy-oddschecker-day-one\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the day-one review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Looking Ahead<\/p>\n<p>Now it gets serious.
