Lovely card for a miserable Friday.

Two nice fancies for today, Josie's orders in the 1450 at Cheltenham. Around the 7/2mark, the trainer is a cross country specialist, this one has had a prep race and has shown huge potential to be one of the big players in these types of races for the coming year. What i have read from the stable and the post over the last few months, is that this horse is going to be in for a good year with a little luck and good placements. 5 points win at 7/2 recommended.

Cheltenham 4pm race: Super Duty at 8/1 General- Only a nine year old, but has contested some hot handicaps in the last few years. Always highly thought of, had a year off, and had a nice easy season last year culminating in a runout in the national. Good jockey on board for these types of races and is expected to have a good season ahead if staying injury free. 2points win.

Good luck if playing.

HiArb,
          Looks a dire race, timeforfirths form hasn't amounted to much, but the fav has disapointed a couple of times.
         Presenting rose does look like it could have some improvement , good luck if you go with it, if we knew the fav was no good would be able to go 2nd and 3rd in against it, if its just his opinion diff matter, good luck.

A couple of interesting novices' races at Cheltenham today especially the 'chase at 1.40pm which looks to be a pretty competitive event with the long-awaited return of More Of That which benefitted from Annie Powers' blunder at the last to win the 2014 World Hurdle.

think you are confusing races, between the world hurdle and the mares race at the festival.

Correct. It must be anno domini catching up with me.

The blunder was in the mares but the placings remain unaltered in the WH.

Poor run from Ballyalton, might well have bounced although the trainer was keen on his chances today.

Lot of early money for it but friendless on the off.  Amazing race the fav drifted from 1/2 to 2/1 pre race.  two rags come first and second.  Next case.....

Neil Mullholland has done really as a trainer, esp since getting his own yard.

Couldnt really understand why ferguson ran PP over 2m5f, just assumed he knew best. He said he could simply switch back to 2m but cant help but thinking hes chose a strange horse to gamble with, considering how PP went to bits on the flat. Hopefully he hasnt ruined him to avoid running two of his better ones against him as having these nice types in hurdles make its more interesting.

Thanks-great ride from Nina, and how lucky was it to stay on its fee when a)it hammered the fence b)the horse in front came down in front of it and it hurdled the jockey, then c)the horse slipped on the bend and nearly took it down. Was destined to win that. Lots more to come, now need Super Duty for doubles and Trebles with that and more of that. Smiley

Off to Uttoxeter races today if anyone has any horses they fancy? Thought I'd ask you lot before I spunk it all away on a 66/1 outsider.
