The jumps are back at Cheltenham as The Showcase meeting kicks off the new season, and it’s a treacherous time of year for punters with horses lacking fitness as they return from summers off. There might be a bet in the 15:00 Masterson Holdings Hurdle with the 6/4 favourite Adrien Du…

The Balmoral Handicap finishes off one of the best cards for a Champions Day since it came to Ascot. The race could have been filled twice over with 45 declared, instead only 20 take part. GM Hopkins loves this track and has Ryan Moore booked, so you fancy him to…

The most valuable race on Saturday’s Champions Day card at Ascot is the QIPCO-sponsored Champion Stakes, a ten-furlong Group One with a cool £737k for the winner. This year’s renewal looks a hot one with – bar Postponed – all the major middle-distance names of this season in contention and some…

Ascot’s QEII is now the richest mile race in Europe and pays its winner £623k, so it’s naturally attracted a star-studded field with all the leading lights of the mile division present bar the now-retired The Gurkha, who won the French Guineas and Sussex Stakes. No one horse has dominated these…

The Group-Two British Champions Long Distance Cup kicks off a fantastic Ascot card on Saturday with a star-studded renewal headlined by Ascot Gold Cup-winner and Arc-third Order Of St George for the irrepressible Aidan O’Brien. Odds-on across the board, I think there’s much better value elsewhere in a race featuring plenty of…

Following the well-treated horses in yesterdays British Cesarewitch Handicap paid dividends, and we are taking a similar approach to pick out the winner in the Irish version of the Cesarewitch at The Curragh today. Three-year-olds have a strong recent record in this race, in part down to the substantial weight-for-age-allowance…

Johannes Vermeer returns to action after a year off-the-track and is clearly the class act in this Group 3 contest, which brings a fantastic card to a close. It is completey unknown whether he will be fit and raring to go, but if he is up-to-speed then he will be…

Aidan O’Brien’s two-year-old filly Rhododendron absolutely bolted up in yesterday’s Group-One Fillies’ Mile at Newmarket, and perhaps the return to the good-to-firm ground she experienced at Goodwood was key. By that logic you’d have to mark up the form of the second at Goodwood, Amabilis, who runs in a fairly…

There’s a familiar feel to this year’s Group-One Dewhurst Stakes, a seven-furlong heat for two-year-olds that has often crowed the champion juvenile. In Churchill, Aidan O’Brien once again has the odds-on favourite and it may be folly to take him on given the trainer’s ridiculous form in Group One races. An…
