Cheltenham selections Thursday 13th March We are already onto Day Three of the Cheltenham Festival and Thursday traditionally can be the toughest (but often most rewarding) to find winners. All the races look open, but I am focussing on the four handicaps. We continued a fine start to the...
Cheltenham selections Wednesday 12th March Day Two at Cheltenham and the Champion Chase is the highlight on the card. I can’t look beyond the warm favourite Jonbon, so I am looking elsewhere on another card stacked with interest throughout. We had a cracking start to the meeting with wins...
Cheltenham selections Tuesday 10th March The finest four days in jump racing are back with the Cheltenham Festival kicking off on Tuesday. Amidst a series of odds on shots, there are still plenty of value bets to be had, especially with the National Hunt Chase converting to a handicap....
Sandown selections Saturday 8th March The traditional pre-Cheltenham Saturday fixture at Sandown takes place today, with a late chance to boost funds before the big week. This year’s fixture takes place on ground more akin to the start of the flat season rather than the usual mid-winter bog we...

Haydock and Ascot selections Saturday 15th February Another full programme of jumps racing and another good Saturday with plenty of high quality action on offer.

However this is a race which Nicky Henderson has already won six times under its various guises and I fancy his...
Sandown & Musselburgh selections Saturday 1st February A brilliant weekend for jumping fans gets underway with a full house of fixtures on Saturday. Of course the highlights is the first day of the Dublin Racing Festival at Leopardstown, but there are plenty of betting opportunities at the two big...
Ascot and Taunton selections Saturday 18th January The middle day of the Winter Millions and we head to Ascot for the clash of the Titans with Jonbon v Energumene in the Clarence House Chase.
