On the cusp of Cheltenham and with Sandown abandoned it is a low-key Saturday tomorrow and I can only find one that I like. Gordon Elliott’s DEMOCRATIC OATH (100/30 Bet365 and Racebets) finished just about six lengths behind Castle Rushen last time over this course […]
Two for tomorrow – The 1.30 at Newbury is a ‘seniors’ handicap hurdle for horses aged 8 and over. One of those in the line up that seems to be coping with advancing years is ALL YOURS (6/1 generally) who has been regenerated by a […]

Colin Tizzard reported on Thursday that his Grade 1 winning novice chaser Slate House is likely to contest the Grade 2 Cotswold Chase at Cheltenham on Saturday where he is likely to lock horns with Santini and Bristol de Mai. The novice is 6/1 from […]
