Lucky 15 Tips: Ilikedwayurthinkin to cap things off at Cartmel

It's the final bank holiday of the summer on Monday which means plenty of racing to enjoy, with seven meetings taking place across Britain and Ireland. They go at Chepstow, Ripon, Southwell (AW) and Epsom on the flat, while there are jumps cards at Cartmel, Downpatrick and Ballinrobe.
I've put together some Lucky 15 tips for the afternoon - including dual course and distance winner Ilikedwayurthinkin at Cartmel.
Lucky 15 Tips - Monday, August 26
15:12 Ripon - Mearall @ 6/1
Listed action comes via the Champion Two Yrs Old Trophy Stakes, a six-furlong contest where some promising youngsters are engaged.
Shadow Army had leading claims on form, Richard Fahey's Showcasing colt having run well in Group-race company twice since he won at York in May. He sets the standard but stablemate MEARALL could give James Doyle's partner plenty of food for thought.
He won over course and distance in his own debut this month, coming clear despite showing plenty of signs of greenness underneath Oisin Orr. There should be a decent chunk of improvement to come and he could take this rise in class in his stride.
15:35 Chepstow - Believe You Me @ 8/1
Also among Monday's features will be the Chepstow Mile Series Final Handicap, a Class 2 contest featuring a dozen contenders in which Heather Main's BELIEVE YOU ME is a leading player.
The Make Believe filly landed a couple of low-grade affairs over 7f at this track in July and can be forgiven her latest visit at the start of this month on Racing League duty. She likes to race prominently but got caught in rear on that occasion and was probably too keen for her own good as such. Her finishing effort was severely blunted.
Trevor Whelan replaces claimer Amie Waugh now and this four-year-old filly could still have more to offer, especially if they can catch a good early pitch from a fair draw.
16:40 Cartmel - Ilikedwayurthinkin @ 5/2
The final meeting of the season at Cartmel comes along with the August Bank Holiday and trainer Ben Haslam will be hoping ILIKEDWAYURTHINKIN can end the season unbeaten around this picturesque venue.
He's a 10-year-old now but has seemingly found something of a niche for himself after wins here in June and July. Those wins came on good/soft ground and he promises to be at home again in conditions under a 3lb rise for his previous score five weeks ago.
He is still nicely treated on his old form and a Cartmel hat-trick may beckon as his handler looks to end the season as the leading trainer at the course.
17:40 Ballinrobe - Mordor @ 5/4
The Gordon Elliott-trained MORDOR has been on an upward trajectory of late, with two wins over hurdles and one on the flat in four starts since the start of July.
His only defeat saw him finishing second in a good quality event at the Galway Festival. He showed a really willing attitude to fend off main market rival Dollar Value at Downpatrick a fortnight ago and a 3lb rise in the ratings look manageable now for Sam Ewing's partner as he takes on four of his peers at a trip that really appears to suit him well.
This is an example of a Lucky 15. If you can improve upon my selections (of course you can), then go for it!
The odds can fluctuate between publishing our pieces and race-time. As a guide, a £0.50p win Lucky 15 on today's selections, at the quoted prices, and assuming all four won, would return around £584 for your total £7.50 stake.
