  • Neptune Investment Novices’ Hurdle
    The Grade One contest staged over two miles and five furlongs has attracted 112 entries, with 37 of those trained in Ireland. The Dermot Weld-trained Rite Of Passage was third in last season’s Grade One Weatherbys Champion Bumper and won a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown in January.

Imperial Commander has apparently been working well but...

  • Pertemps Final
    I can certainly see Blue Shark improving for the step up in trip and like the fact he contested the same valuable Sandown handicap last out as the last two winners of this final were also unplaced in that race. I think the recent money for Buena Vista has been significant but he wouldn’t want it soft whereas Blue Shark would relish it. Synchronised would worry me as...

  • Supreme Novices Hurdle Tips
    Paul Jones of Weatherbys gives us his independent betting tips on all the races from this year’s Cheltenham Festival. I am keen on Go Native each-way as can see him swinging away turning for home but the hill does worry me so a bit of each-way insurance may be the best way into this race. Hopefully they will go super quick so Paul Carberry can sit and wait and then...
