0.75pts e/w Ballyfitz @ 12/1(bet365, Lads) 1.55 Cheltenham; Runs well fresh and is of an 8lb lower mark than when he came 4th in the Paddy Power last year. Jumping is as ever a concern but a leading contenders and def worth a bet at this price.
0.5pts e/w Any Currency @8/1 (Bet365) 1.55 Cheltenham: Has alight racing weight here and the trainer has already got a run into him this season. 4th in the marathon event here at the festival so no stamina concerns. Is a worthy favourite for this event.
2pts Long Run @ 7/2 (bet365) 2.35 Cheltenham: Will need to be quick to get this price. Very classy horse who was undone at the festival last season by a combination of his trainer taking too long to decide what his target race should be, a really fast run in the race previous to the festival and of course running against a horse that is always better at Chelt than anywhere else (Weapons Amnesty)
1pt e/w Mad Max @ 9/1 (bet365, Paddy Power); Both these bookies are paying 5 places so I couldn't resist also backing Hendersons second string. A phenomenal horse who prob won't be seen at his best here. Can be difficult for horses as big as this to deal with downhills but has run creditably here in the past so not hard to see him making the frame.
I'll post this now to let you get on the Long Run bet - part 3 to come
