    Does anyone share my opinion that come March if we have decent ground at Cheltenham then there are going to be some serious shock results?

    I am already preparing myself for some burning of the midnight oil to study and find horses that go in ground that they haven’t run in for a serious amount of time.

    If it comes up good or even good to soft then we can pretty much throw the last three or four months form out of the window and start looking further back into the form to find winners!!

    I think a lot of the favourites in the big races at the festival this year seem very classy and appear to act on most grounds, but in the handicaps I definitely see some surprise outcomes, expect to see a lot of horses who’ve finished way back in the heavy ground recently or even been kept off the track for a few months to feature prominently in the coral cup and county hurdle amongst others.

    I’m very keen on Hargam in whatever handicap (guessing coral cup) he runs in as long as it’s good(ish) ground, also keen to back the Nichols trained Vincenzo Mio if he gets his chance in a handicap.
