Colin Tizzard can sign off in style with a win for Eldorado Allen in the Betway Bowl (2.55). The top trainer is soon to hand over the reins to his son Joe and the grey has a fine chance of victory at Aintree. He stayed on determinedly behind star chaser Allaho in Cheltenham's Ryanair Chase last month and is in an upward curve. Earlier, Pied Piper…

There are some surprising names still left in the 28 entries for the Stayers' Hurdle, particularly the name of star 2 mile chasing veteran Chacun Pour Soi for Willie Mullins. The master of Closutton is not averse to making multiple entries for the Festival, and has also thrown in last season's Ballymore hero Sir Gerhard. The betting is wide open…

Nicky Henderson believes Epatante must be treated as "still a possible runner" in the Close Brothers Mares' Hurdle - despite her not featuring among the initial entries for the Cheltenham Festival contest. The winner of the Unibet Champion Hurdle in 2020 before placing behind Honeysuckle the following two years, Epatante has been given the option…

THE latest Cheltenham Festival entries have been revealed - and there are some early shocks. Racing's biggest meeting gets underway nine weeks today and several of the fields are starting to take shape. But there were eyebrows raised on Tuesday when it was revealed JP McManus' Epatante had not been entered in the Mares' Hurdle. The Nicky…

Our Monday tipster Ross Millar picked Glen Cannel (6-1) and Hansard (5-2) last week in a great start to the new year and shares his three best bets for all the action from Taunton. Enjoy every moment live on Racing TV. 1.25 Taunton: Robin's Dream This should be competitive despite just four runners. Cap Du Mathan has winning course form and will…

Well, we've finally arrived at my final blog of 2022. Have you had enough of racing yet this festive period? Of course not! Let's kick off 2023 as we ended 2022, with more superb sport headlined by Cheltenham's New Year's Day fixture. The first horse I'm pinning my hopes on to get the new year off to a flyer is SECRET REPRIEVE in the AIS Handicap…

One of the most important aspects of betting on horses (or indeed any sport) is the psychology involved. Backing winners is great, of course, and obviously important from the perspective of delivering a profit, but it is how we handle losing runs that is most important. Recognising what constitutes a good day (or week) at the races is a fundamental…

Mares' Hurdle champion Marie's Rock faces a considerable challenge on the first stop towards her Cheltenham Festival defence, but trainer Nicky Henderson hopes the mares' allowance will give her the advantage. The eight-year-old is against geldings in open company for the first time and also lacks the match fitness of all eight rivals, with this…

Mortlach is 4-10 over fences but much more exposed than most of these and appears to have had limitations exposed lately. Beauport looked a smart recruit when beating experienced opposition at Carlisle but then failed to land the odds at Haydock. Thunder Rock is 2-2 over fences, however, but is elevated from handicap company along with Harper's…

Marie's Rock: returns to Cheltenham on Sunday Mares' Hurdle heroine Marie's Rock will return to Cheltenham and take on the boys for her seasonal comeback in the Dornan Group-sponsored Relkeel Hurdle (2.30) on New Year's Day. The Nicky Henderson-trained eight-year-old is one of nine declarations for the Grade 2 prize, with Knappers Hill,…

An each-way Lucky 15, as advised below, is therefore 30 bets, and you will get a return of some kind if one horse places. She produced a career-best effort when chasing home Botox Has in a…

Steve Packham (third left): hoping Goshen can gain a first Grade 1 in the Long Walk Hurdle No-one could begrudge Steve Packham a first Grade 1 winner at Kempton on Monday and Goshen's owner believes his fans' favourite will relish a first try over three miles in the Ladbrokes Long Walk Hurdle (12.45). The Gary Moore-trained Goshen looked a Grade 1…

Sky Sports Racing presenter Alex Hammond is back with her Christmas blog, taking aim at the King George, Long Walk Hurdle and the Welsh Grand National. Amongst all the rushing around for Christmas in the Hammond house, there is some serious racing to look forward to over the festive period, it's no wonder my house guests choose to leave on Boxing…

Protektorat flew the Lodge Hill flag high with victory in the Grade One Betfair Chase at Haydock but it is Skelton's handicappers who have been in scintillating form since then and the trainer has chances in both the Betfair Exchange Trophy - a race he first won with Willow's Saviour in 2013 - and the Howden Silver Cup Handicap Chase. The…

The Pertemps Network Final Handicap Hurdle is one of the big betting races on Thursday at the Cheltenham Festival. The contest always attracts a bumper field of runners due to the riches on offer to connections of horses that would otherwise fall short of the standard required for the top level. A top-six finish in one of the many qualification…

Attempting to land the Fighting Fifth Hurdle for a second successive year after dead-heating last term, Not So Sleepy was third to Nicky Henderson's Champion Hurdle favourite, some 14 and a half lengths behind. Trainer Hughie Morrison was satisfied with the 10-year-old's display, although questioned the wisdom of taking on the impressive winner…

Le Milos and Harry Skelton take the last in the Coral Gold Cup from stablemates Remastered (left) and Gericault Roque The breathy sound that greeted Constitution Hill's thumping victory over Epatante and co in the Fighting Fifth Hurdle was partly awestruck gasp but mainly a collective sigh of relief that this wondrous talent is just as good as…

Many a true word is said in jest as the saying goes and I was reminded of that maxim when reading a tweet early last week that said there would be more Festival clues at Fairyhouse last Tuesday than there had been at Cheltenham the previous weekend. Given the star entries at Ascot's upcoming weekend fixture, I doubt the poster also had it in the…

Paul Nicholls considers Hitman a serious rival to stablemate Bravemansgame in the King George VI Chase following a dominant display at Haydock. The Ditcheat handler has saddled a record 12 previous winners of Kempton's Boxing Day showpiece and Bravemansgame is as short as even money to add his name to the roll of honour. But Hitman - second on his…

Protektorat put himself in the Cheltenham Gold Cup picture with a commanding victory in the Betfair Chase at Haydock. Third behind A Plus Tard at the Festival in March, Dan Skelton's charge reversed that form in style as Henry de Bromhead's 1/2 favourite failed to fire and was pulled up three out. Bristol De Mai led the quintet along as he sought a…

The first day of the 2021 Cheltenham Festival had an unfamiliar feel to it, lacking a capacity crowd for the first time in history, but its famous roar was still heard nationwide thanks to an electrifying opening day that did not disappoint the millions tuning in at home. The action on the track certainly lived up to its billing, as the bookmakers…
