Three against the field:
Vinndication
Mister Malarky
Soupy SoupsThe first two represent class and best recent run. Soupy Soups is more under the radar, a few more runs than I’d normally like at Cheltenham but regularly thereabouts.
Discorama is my main bet for this one. Atlanta Ablaze and Cepage for each way backup.
I think the former has been campaigned for this all season after his NH Chase heroics last term so can see him going close.
I ended up wit the two favourites. I backed Vinndication last month as I think he is a grade 1 horse. Only worry is that he might be better going righthanded. Discorama might not be grade 1 level, but I think he is close to that. He also has very good festival form and has a nice weight.
Who dares wins @ 10/1 for me
Very good flat horse and useful hurdle who has taken well to fences
Has Cheltenham handicap form coming 5th behind delta work and glenloe in the pertemps
I think hes been running over the wrong trip all season to protect his mark
This is a horse who came 4th in a 2m4f group 1 on the flat, hoping he will improve massively for the step up in trip
Ok , I’ve played Vinndication a few times Inc some acca, s , I’ll play cobra de mai as well , reckon the Skelton have had this in mind since the course win last year , caught my eye the way he finished some races this year
I was gonna back cobra de mai too as he looks a typical skelton plot but all his form is on gd ground
Elwood 20-1
Quarenta 40-1
both ew 5 places.I liked Elliott’s horse when I saw him up close at Downpatrick. Some of the racecard comments have been sniffy about his jumping but he’s not a clumsy horse, just got in a bit tight to a couple last time. He’ll learn from it.
Ben Linfoot makes a good case in his Value Bet column for Quarenta at a nice price. This race often goes to an English horse so I’ll take my green tinted specs off briefly for him.
FF I agree but he has won on heavy as well , course form to which is always a big plus
I love The Festival form of Discorama and I have bet him ew 6pls + I’ve also bet The Conditional to win.
Quite keen on Activial 33/1 6 places Skybet. he did well in this
last year carrying 6lb more. Hopefully this has been the plan since then.
