Good morning – Cheltenham horse racing fans… boom!
Yesterday, we had an amazing FOUR winners from our selections as Old Park Star, Saratoga, Lossemouth and Madara all did the business for us! We also had an array of very good places via Sober Glory, Quebecois, Downmexicoway and Iceberg Theory. A monumental day!
Can we repeat? Let’s try and go again!!
Horse Racing Selections – March 11
Cheltenham Festival – Day 2
1.20 Turners
Already selected Mighty Park who was re-routed to the Supreme yesterday – NRNB so no big deal! A couple of replacement picks… Sober 7/1 each way at 4 places looks a pretty solid Mullins horse to go well – and at given Old Park Star’s performance, let’s go with the same owners and Act of Innocence at 10/1 for 4 places each way.
2.00 Browns
Already selected Final Demand antepost at 7/2 but this can now be found at 5/1 – I still like the selection so may be worth adding another 1/2 go given the slight drift. This may be linked to some social media shannagians, which is not worth going into here as not worth my time!
It’s wise to have a second selection in this one and Koktail Divin looks pretty solid given the recent form – you can get 15/2 each way with 4 places, which looks decent to me.
2.40 Coral Cup
The Coral Cup – now known by another name… I selected I Started A Joke but the horse is no longer running – again no tears as NRNB. Momentum is growing for Puturhandstogether and, despite a 6th last time out, this could be a great opportunity – at 9/1 with 6 places each way, we should select. I also like Iberico Lord and think he’s due another big ride after winning at 22/1 at Kempton back in January – that performance was immense and we shouldn’t ignore it at 10/1 here with 6 places each way.
3.20 Crosscountry
This is always a crazy race for me where anything can happen given he obstacles involved. We shouldn’t be going to busy ourselves, because of it. Some of those at the top of the market are carrying a fair whack of weight so let’s swerve them! Vanillier was the antepost pick at 7/1 but now drifted a little to 8 or 9/1 – may be worth an extra half a go to make up. the one that catches my eye is Fakir Doudairies and the price was 25/1 on Monday – now down to 14/1 with 4 places. One to have on the back-burner each way…
4.00 Champion Chase
Majborough was selected as the antepost a while ago at 13/8 and is now as short as 4/5 in places. This is Majborough’s race to lose, in my opinion – should just win. For a big of fun, and at a very low level, I have sided with Brookie at 125/1? Why? Well, Sam Twiston-Davies rides and seemed quite chippy about him. It’s a fun one – main pick is Majborough still!
4.40 Grand Annual
We have Inthepocket in the pocket at 14/1 each way as an antepost – support has come in for this one and it is not 9/1. Let’s add another – as I was talking about Sam Twiston-Davies, his horse here certainly has a decent chance. Jour Devasion and 20/1 each way with 5 places…
5.20 Champions Bumper
The antepost pick was Quiryn at 12/1 each way – with a reasoning it would certainly shorten in pricce (now 15/2 – reasoning confirmed)! The second pick is Love Sign D’aunou as Patrick Mullins is riding and is full of confidence. You can get 9/2 each way with 4 places if you look about – grab it if you can…
That’s your lot – good luck and let’s grab it… 18+, be responsible
