STAYERS HURDLE PREVIEW 2021

I would suggest there is a real possibility that Paisley Park’s superiority over Thyme Hill and Roksana was significantly hidden by the way the race panned out at Ascot in December. For that reason I backed him 3/1 NRNB in quite a few each...

RYANAIR CHASE PREVIEW 2021

I do think that the Ryanair Chase is building up to be a particularly fascinating race to consider. The current two favourites are probably both trading at the head of affairs due to the name of their connections rather than through any obviously superior...

MARSH NOVICES’ CHASE PREVIEW 2021

The obvious remaining doubt with Envoi Allen is the lack of competition he has faced in his prep races. He has barely seen a rival in his three chases to date and will need to do something new to win at Cheltenham. One assumes...

CHAMPION CHASE PREVIEW 2021

Although the odds on favourite Chacun Pour Soi appears to be very strong at the moment; at the same time he makes little appeal at around 4/5 - not least, because he is unlikely to be that much shorter on the day; if at...

BALLYMORE NOVICES’ HURDLE PREVIEW 2021

With a week to go before the race the current market for the Ballymore Novices’ Hurdle is quite interesting. We have three strong favourites all trading between 5/2 and 7/2 followed by eight horses trading below 20/1 with at least one firm. Of those...

ARKLE CHASE PREVIEW 2021

In sharp contrast to the Supreme Hurdle, the Arkle Chase looks like an incredibly strong renewal. With three horses topping the market with ratings of 164, 163 and 160, it is going to take a very high-class performance to even finish in third place. Captain Guinness is next in...

SUPREME HURDLE PREVIEW 2021

I have been half-expecting one of the top juveniles to transfer from the Triumph Hurdle to this race for quite some time now. Maybe it won’t happen now; however, I would suggest that the combination of Zanahiyr, Tritonic and Quilixios looks more formidable than Appreciate It, Ballyadam and Soaring Glory. Assuming that none of the...

KELSO SATURDAY 6TH MARCH 2021

A FEW NOTES TO COMPARE WITH YOUR OWN THOUGHTS 14:40 – PREMIER CHASE (LISTED)         It is easy to understand why Aso’s superior rating of 158 has resulted in him trading as the 2/1 favourite here. We can all see that he has 14lbs in...
