Ruby Walsh has several enviable choices to make ahead of the Cheltenham Festival, none more so than which of Rich Ricci’s ex-Supreme Novice winners Min and Douvan in the Champion Chase. However, I’ve heard Ruby Walsh talk about the favourite Altior and I though it was telling how highly he…

1pt win Waiting Patiently @9/4, 15:35 Ascot, Saturday
The Betfair Ascot Chase is the final piece of the domestic challenge’s Grade 1 form ahead on next month’s Cheltenham Festival and we’re treated to a brilliant renewal this year despite a deluge of rain guaranteeing testing conditions.

1pt each-way Baie Des Iles @10/1, 16:20 Punchestown
BAIE DES ILES faces its first marathon chase trip of the season over perfect conditions at Punchestown today, as the seven-year-old mare goes in search of her second victory in this race having hosed up off a 4lb lower mark last year. (more…) Tweet
0.75pts each-way Silver Streak @18/1, 0.75pts each-way Misterton @20/1, 15:35 Newbury
There are cases to be made for many in this field and Irish Roe looks an interesting favourite for the richest handicap hurdle of the season. The last ten winners of this race have been aged five or six so it certainly pays to stick with the unexposed horses and…
Joel's Betfair Hurdle selection: Kayf Grace
KAYF GRACE looks the bet in a rock-solid betting puzzle that is the 2018 renewal of the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury. Nicky Henderson sends five, all with decent chances, and stable jockey Nico de Boinville has opted for the inexperienced mare, . The speed she showed in her bumper days coupled…
2pts win Altior @8/13, 15:00 Newbury, Saturday
For the simple fact that I believe ALTIOR is the best horse in training, and the best since Sprinter Sacre, I don’t really care that his sole realistic rival in Saturday’s Game Spirit Chase, Politologue, has beaten all before him this season including Fox Norton when landing the Grade 1 Tingle Creek…

Supasundae, last year’s Coral Cup winner, has gone favourite for the three-mile Stayers’ Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival after taking the racing public by surprise by beating the ageing Faugheen in the two-mile Irish Champion Hurdle last weekend. Without wanting to sound like Captain Hindsight, it was little surprise to…

Below you’ll find our ante-post selections for Cheltenham Festival 2018, along with key updates regarding their chances. Supreme Novices’ Hurdle: Samcro @16/1 (highly unlikely to run) 13th Jan: despite the market suggesting the Ballymore Novices’ Hurdle on the Wednesday is his intended target, we backed him for the two-mile opener…
1pt each-way Topofthegame @11/2, 15:00 Sandown, Saturday
We’ve tipped TOPOFTHEGAME ante-post for the Coral Cup at Cheltenham Festival, citing his lenient mark and scope for improvement stepped up to three miles as reasons he’s overpriced. It’s disappointing he’s not been saved for that race to protect his mark as he’s been declared for Saturday’s three-mile handicap hurdle…
2pts win Yorkhill @7/1 non-runner-no-bet, Ryanair Chase
This weekend’s inaugural Dublin Racing Festival at Leopardstown, formed by merging two traditional meetings into one big weekend, might lack British entries but will certainly go some way to answering many of the questions surrounding the Irish challenge for March’s Cheltenham Festival. That’s not to say it’s all about the…
