Hi all,
I’m back from a short holiday refreshed and raring to go. Today’s selections are from Cheltenham Trials Day.

12:10 – Dalamoi – 7/1 @ Bet365 & Coral – Looked a useful chasing prospect when winning on his debut over fences at Kempton in November and when a ½ length 2nd of 8 at Chepstow the following month. The 6-year-old took a heavy fall back at that venue last time but provided his confidence hasn’t been dented has scope to better over fences.
3:00 – Dashel Drasher – 11/4 @ Bet365 & Coral – The consistent 10-year-old was no match for Marie’s Rock in the Grade 2 to Relkeel Hurdle here (2m 4f) on New Year’s Day. However, he’s likely to give his running once more and there’s a good chance that he’ll stay today’s 3m. Especially as it seems likely that he’ll get his own way out in front here.
4:10 – Punctuation – 7/2 @ Bet365 – The selection made it 4-4 since joining the Fergal O’Brien yard when successful in a C&D handicap hurdle last month. The 6-year-old has been raised 8lb for his latest win but had plenty in hand at the line and can go in again.
Cheers
John
