Hi all,
Cheltenham
2:50 – Conflated – 13/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Has started to get his act together over fences and bids for the hat trick after his recent win the Irish Gold Cup at the Dublin Racing Festival. Although it’s hard to see him beating the favourite, if that one is at his very best, the selection is capable of more improvement
3:30 – Thyme Hill – 9/2 @ Bet365 & William Hill – The selection had to miss last year’s race due to a setback, won the Grade 1 Stayers Hurdle at Aintree last April. The 8-year-old bounced back from a poor run in France when finishing 1 ½ lengths behind Champ in the Long Walk. He’s got previous Cheltenham Festival form, finishing third to Envoi Allen in the 2019 Champion Bumper and when finishing a slightly unlucky 1 ½ length 4th of 19 to Monkfish in the 2020 Albert Bartlett Novices Hurdle over C&D.
4:50 – Dinoblue – 9/4 @ Bet365 & Coral – The mare has been one of the taking horses on the preview circuit. She jumped quickly and accurately for a novice when winning her sole start over hurdles at Clonmel in January. She’s open to plenty of improvement and looks an exciting prospect.
Cheers
John
