1.50 Wincanton – Beachfire EW @ 4/1
Beachfire was a decent horse on the flat when with John Gosden and looks as though he is going to be equally as adept on the NH scene from what I have seen of him so far. Came 3rd on his debut , to stablemate Plain Sailing , he followed that up by slamming his opponents on his next visit to the racecourse , beating stablemate and the decent New Years Eve by 9 lengths . Has come second on both his starts since then , but hasn’t lost anything in those defeats , and now he goes handicapping , off what looks to be a winnable looking mark , there could be a lot more to come. Looks to be a decent (and exciting) recruit to both the NH ranks and to the trainers stable. Have advised each way as if he fails to win , but manages to place , then at least its money back and a chance to go again lol .

2.40 Leicester – Pippa Greene EW @ 8/1
Not been in the best of form of late admittedly but I think there are signs of a revival , maybe ! , down to last winning mark , and re united with A Tinkler whose record on the horse reads – 2 , 2 , 2 , 1 , so could have some sort of affinity with her ! Has won at the course , albeit on the flat , over 1m3f. Admittedly Nicky Henderson hasn’t got his stable in great form at the moment but he has a tremendous strike rate at Leicester , and with him taking just this one to the meeting , could be a pointer in itself.

Havent posted for past couple of days as haven’t been able to get on for some reason .
Only 4 bets anyway , Royal Irish Hussar , Dell’Arca , being the winning ones and Sire De Grugy and Shield which lost

1.05 Cheltenham – Standing Ovation @ 6/4
Well , who could fail to be anything but impressed by his demolition job in the Badger Ales last week , the 5 timer definatley looks to be on imo , the one slight nagging doubt I do have is will he act on the course as Cheltenham can be a bugger for some horses , but I cant see David Pipe (who has won this race for the last 2 years) entering him if he didn’t think he’d do okay round here and he’s a shrewder man than I !!
8.45 Dundalk – High Net Worth @ 15/8
Finally came good after filling second spot 4 times in a row , travelled well last time out and there looked as though there was more left in the tank come the finishing line , so the step up in distance shouldn’t pose too much of a problem. Making handicap debut in this and looks on a decent enough mark for a follow up to be on the cards.
3.15 Cheltenham – Balthazar King @ 2/1
Balthazar King comes into this race in tremendous form , winning both his starts since his re appearance , first over in France and then last time out round Cheltenham . Seems to like this course with form figures round here of – 2 , 2 , F , 4 , 2 , 5 , 1 , 1 , PU , F , 1 , 1 , 2 , 1 … all his wins here have come with Dicky Johnson in the plate so its good to see that he’s in the saddle once again . Came 2nd to Uncle Junior in this race last year ( so we know he can handle the cross country obstacles and as I touched on his course form here is good which I think is important at Cheltenham ) , that rival doesn’t appear to be in any sort of form to be honest so I don’t think he’ll be retaining his crown. I would like to see a bit bigger price to be honest , 7/4 – 2/1 available at time of posting , but then again if he wins they’ll look okay come 3.25ish !!
