The Perfect Ten
Aintree selections Saturday 9th April National day has arrived at Aintree and the big race is due off at 5.15 with the usual maximum field of 40 expected. I have three selections for the feature and recommendations for three other races on an excellent supporting card. We had a...
Severance can rip up Aintree
Aintree selections Friday 8th April Friday at Aintree and there are plenty of competitive handicaps to get stuck into, including the Topham which has attracted a maximum field of 30. I have selections for all three handicaps on the card. Aintree 1.45: Fils D’oudairies & Broomfield Burg Trainer Nicky...
A Plus can pass Gold Cup examination
Cheltenham Festival selections Friday 18th March The final day of the Festival and as always the centrepiece of the day – and the week – comes with the Gold Cup at 3.30. The first three from 2021 clash again and I fancy there will be a slight shuffling of...
Expect a right Royal Stayers performance
Cheltenham Festival selections Thursday 17th March The Stayers Hurdle looks a wide open affair and Thursday’s highlight can go to the only mare in this year’s line up. From a punting perspective the best races all seem to come at the end of the card, so I am focusing...
Ahoy can greet winners enclosure
Cheltenham Festival selections Wednesday 16th March After a terrific opening day at Cheltenham, Wednesday brings perhaps the purists race of the week with the Champion Chase. It is a classic renewal too – but I think there is an overpriced contender as a decent each-way shout. Again we have...

Cheltenham Festival selections Tuesday 15th March Having been suspended for the 2021 Festival, Gordon Elliott is back for 2022 and has a raft of strong fancies for the opening day, including a big each-way fancy for the big race the Champion Hurdle. I have selections for four races on...
Four Cheltenham handicappers to follow
Whilst the headlines will be made in the Grade 1 contests throughout the week at Cheltenham, the success or otherwise of punters is more likely to be made by the various handicaps dotted across the programme. With six day entries now all in, here are four horses fancied to...
Cheltenham Gold Cup preview
We are a month away from the big jumps meeting of the year at Cheltenham and things have been shaping up nicely in recent weeks with regards to the Blue Riband contest, the Gold Cup. The starting point for the 2022 renewal has to be the contest from last...
Aday to remember at Longchamp
Longchamp selections Sunday 3rd October A very wet Arc day and the only thing that can be said with some certainty about the big race is that a foreign raider will take the prize. However I think the wet weather will turn the race in favour of one of...
