Today has Southwell on the all weather, and Leopardstown in Ireland. Some nice horses racing at the Irish venue. The 3:00 is a difficult choice, Delta Work is top rated, he has done little wrong so far, the mare La Bague Au Roi is tough and honest, she will not make it easy for her male rivals, this is not just a two horse race, Winter Escape is another that has to be respected. At Southwell, Ornate goes at 2:45, he seems to be at the top of his game at the moment, his young jockey Phil Dennis can really ride, he is good value for his 3lb claim, and knows this horse well, I think he can win again.
Reflecting on yesterday’s racing. Apples Jade was very impressive in winning the Irish Champion Hurdle, if she was mine I would take her to Cheltenham, and run her in the two mile Champion Hurdle, her owners racing manager said he did not think that would be the choice after the win yesterday, but she will run in the mares only race. At Sandown Buveur D’ Air was impressive in winning his prep race for Cheltenham, but he didn’t have strong rivals.
Hopefully followers took my advise and put Kachy and Wissahickon in some multiple bets yesterday, they were short odds but both won easily, I try to give followers a few selections, my belief is any winner is a good price !
