Ballyandy Singlefarmpayments/Druids Nephew Yanworth Rons Dream to place Champers On Ice Itsafreebee/ Mixboy/ Bun Doran Big question tomorrow is what happens in the mares race? It looks a really good race this year.
Bunk Off Early 15/2 Cheltenham 1:30 - think this horse is going to run a huge race over 2 miles. A strong pace up front will play right into his hooves and he can be held onto until late before Townend produces him 25 yards out to score by 0.5 lengths from Willie's other runner Melon. Cilaos Emery I was a huge fan of but his latest effort temepred my enthusiasm somewhat so Bunk Off Early gets the vote. Buveir D'air 11/2 Cheltenham 3:30 - looked a lot more mature than I gave credit for for his 2 chase wins when he won easily when reverted to hurdles lto, he looked improved and likely to improve again for that run. Many questions can be asked of the field in what looks a wide open race and BD can put himself up there among the best 2 milers with a win here. Tiger Roll 16/1 Cheltenham 4:50 - My most confident bet of the day. The horse will relish this trip and I stated early last year he was a possible future GN winner. Looks to have had a nice prep with Gordon keeping him ticking away at 3 miles and thereabouts. Lisa O'Neil pilots for this Amateur event and is more than capable as she's done well this season when used. He's been super consistent and when the rest are crying enough, Tiger Roll will be flying up the hill...hopefully! 3 bets on the opening day to kick off the week for me. If one of those can oblige I will be happy. They are each way prices so if you are of that persuasion then they rate solid place chances. Have a good week lads and lasses. Happy punting.
Colin's Sister in the mares e/w along with Captain Redbeard in the last , the Coltherd outfit are no strangers to the winners enlosure at the festival , who recalls Tartan Snow , 100/1 _- this fellow won't be that price but since the stable have won with their last three horses , last week ,and this is rated the best they've ever had , a big run wouldn't be a shock , done them in singles and e/w double
That sounded easy for Cinque Port. Pity the commentators are so ignorant and don't realise that the pronunciation is Sink and not Sank. They try to be correct or posh and get it wrong
BALLS! BALLYANDY ALTIOR SINGLEFARMPAYMENT THE NEW ONE LIMINI EDWULF MIXBOY/BURTON PORT I would love a price on an Irish 1-2-3 in the mares. None of the home team are in the same league imho.
