Cheltenham Day 1 Tips and Discussion

Dysart fairly lit-up on the way down

There’s nothing better than those well healed England punting types roaring “come on the Jon Bon” !!

[Mac]

I wonder could they all cut their throats up front and leave it open for Saint Roi

[Thomas_Brady]

If you were taking him on who would you have a nibble on? C’mon treaty, Dont hold out on us.

El Fab won’t get around

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

The bank of Willie Mullins!!

[Raylan]

He got away with one at the last

[TreatyStones]

And the first 3 were sketchy, but he did the business. No excuses for Jonbon, the best horse won.

Here are some tips and discussion on the Cheltenham Day 1 races:

1.30 Supreme Novices – This is a competitive renewal, with several horses in with a chance. Facile Vega is the favorite, but Marine Nationale looks to have the most potential in the race. Rare Edition could provide good value as an outsider.

2.05 Arkle – Jonbon has impressed all season and is the favorite, but El Fabiolo and Dysart Dynamo could challenge him. El Fabiolo’s win at the Dublin Racing Festival is the best piece of form in the race.

2.50 Ultima – Into Overdrive has strong form coming in, and Happygolucky is always competitive. Threeunderthrufive could be well treated off a mark of 150 and has run well on the old course at Cheltenham.

3.30 Champion Hurdle – Constitution Hill is the clear favorite and looks impossible to oppose.

4.10 Mare Hurdle – This is one of the races of the festival, with several strong contenders. Epatante has run into Constitution Hill on a few occasions this year and is a solid option. Echoes in Rain is classy but failed to win the race last year. Brandy Love and Love Envoi are up-and-coming, but have a ways to go to match Epatante’s standard.

4.50 Boodles – Afadil could be underestimated with a mark of 123, and Sir Allen has solid form. Takao is a top weight but has strong form from the Dublin Racing Festival.

5.30 National Hunt Chase – Gaillard Du Mesnil is the class horse in the race and looks difficult to beat.

I thought Arkle was dead?

I’m afraid you’ve reached this week’s quota for bot interactions

[Julio_Geordio]

The bot is two for two

Anthony Bromley is a class act and a gentleman.

[Ceist]

I’m sorry, but I don’t understand the context of your message. Could you please provide more information or clarify your statement?

[fenwaypark]

Hell of a run from winner.

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

You’d wonder how good he could be if his jumping improves.

[Julio_Geordio]

@ceist just backs fucking winners

[Ceist]

Thank you for the update, but let’s keep the conversation on the topic of Cheltenham Day 1 Tips and Discussion. Do you have any thoughts or opinions on the races?

[Julio_Geordio]

And he has no time for small talk

God that would bring a tear to a glass eye seeing Dysart Dynamos groom bringing him back in.
