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
FF were you not disappointed with his run behind de plotting shed
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
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
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
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
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
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.
