    This looks and really weak race for the money and I really can’t find anything of interest here at all in the main contenders so I’ve had a look at Wayward Prince’s old form and seen that he has suddenly run well a couple of times after poor runs and if he has woken up at all, he might get involved here of this mark. The light weight and good ground might get him going and he’s worth a shot at 33/1 just in case.

    1 Point win 40/1 Stan James

    2:50 Newbury

    Royal Guardsman
    was a decent prospect a couple of years ago but it doesn’t look like chasing suited him. He performed ok but aside from his rather poor re-introduction over hurdles lately after a long break he has some decent hurdles form and looks of a nice enough mark here if he has come on from that opening run. 14/1 might be worth a small bet.

    1 Point win 14/1 Various

    3:25 Newbury

    Easter Meteor
    is one I’m interested in for the festival, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he showed an improvement here. He is of a decent mark and there is a possibility it wont want to be ruined here so close to what might be his target but it’s a decent race and my gut feeling is he might be trying today. I’ll have a min bet at 11/1 as that will avoid any remote’s been trown at the TV iv im not on today and he wins.

    1 Point win 11/1 Various
    Well done Aidan

    Absolutely and i see on one of those festival previews Jamie Moore was talking him up big time, he has been tried with a Tongue Tie and is going well at home.. I probably wont put up anymore AP bets as i've too many up as it is, but if he is still 33/1 near the day ill probably be on..

    I saw that i'm not sure what to think but ill be sticking him up as a bet as soon as its NRNB. 20/1 at the moment.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    Imperial Cup Sandown

    In for a penny in for a pound, I am of course going to have a few quid on Wicklow Brave in this race. I’m on NRNB already for the County Hurdle but the 25/1 here looks well worth a gamble. He never got a run last time in the Betfair hurdle having been out the back early and he is still a horse with plenty of potential to me and should be suited by this race.

    1 Point EW 5 places 25/1 BetVictor and few other places

    Coneygree’
    s form is a long way clear of anything in this field and I feel we have to take the 9/2 on offer with Boyles at the moment because if he is confirmed for this race he should go off 5/2 or less. I’m not that convinced with the Irish form as it looks to me as if there are too many too close together. His style of going to the front and staying there should suit this race and his last run was off the charts for a novice. He is sure to stay the trip as well.

    2 Points win 9/2 Boyles NRNB 4/1 Elsewhere

    Took the decision yesterday to back him at 11/2 antepost. I have a feeling he'll go for this race.

    Day 1

    5:15 CHAPS Restaurants Barbados Novices' Handicap Chase

    Looking at last year’s races reminded me of an eye-catching performance from Keltus in the Fred Winter. He absolutely flew up the hill into 4th and would surely be suited by this step up in trip and the with usual improvement in Paul Nichols horses over fences he should be right there in this. He has 2 good 2nds this year to horses who has gone up the handicap significantly since and really does look a couple of pounds at least well in here. Factor in the Festival form factor and he is an easy pick here. 16/1 with Ladbrokes NRNB is a standout at the moment and I can’t see him going off greater than 8/1.

    2 Points EW 16/1 Ladbrokes NRNB

    Was at the Café En Seine preview last night and MC Denis Kirwan when giving him as a handicap tip said he'd been over at Nicholls yard last week and when Nicholls had a few drinks into him, he was asked for a proper tip and gave Keltus. Will be following you.

    the money is starting to come similar to the betfair!

    I backed Keltus for the handicap chase also 2 weeks ago, looks kept for the race. backed champagne James on Monday at 25's. Read his last comments in running..stinks of another horse from the same owner, trainer jockey combo before he was punted off the boards at an xmas festivals :-)

    Gowran 3:50

    Caolaneoin
    has been looking for a step up in trip and although this is only a couple of furlongs further it is in heavy ground and the finish here could well be a bit of a clog which will probably suit him. He can perform of this mark and has a fair bit of form over hurdles of a fair bit higher mark than this that would put him in with a shout. 14/1 looks value

    1 Point win 14/1 Will Hill 12/1 Generally


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    Sandown 3:10

    I’m going to add 2 small win bets on big outsiders with a small chance here. Hint of Mints form this year has been good and there is plenty of evidence that his current mark is within his grasp. Over 50/1 on Betfair is worth a min bet here. In addition Zaidiyn’s last run was eye-catching to say the least and he finished like a horse with more to show no his next run. He is in here near the bottom of the weights looks overprice at 48 on Betfair

    ½ Point win Hint Of Mint 55 Betfair
    ½ Point win Zaidiyn 48 Betfair

    Will he go county now?? Missed the start twice??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,978 ✭✭✭Backstreet Moyes


    What's the thoughts on Wicklow Brave now? Thinking of going in again at 33/1 e/w if he jumps off surely will have a good chance.

    Previously Adviced running today


    Champion Hurdle

    I’ve seen enough Jezki looks better than ever this year so far just going down to hurricane fly on soft around Leopardstown, and for me should be favourite for the Champion Hurdle. His main opponent from last year isn’t there this year and on good ground he seems to me to be a bit clear of the new one and Faugheen on all known form. 5/1 is great value.


    2 Points win 5/1 NRNB Various


    This bet looks very decent now that the ground is goind to be good.

    This looks a great price now and he just got in to the bottom of the handicap i can see him going of at 10/1 or less.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    2:40 3m 1f Ultima Business Solutions Handicap Chase


    I like the look of Indian Castle in this at a big looking price. He was all the rage last year for the Kim Muir and was in the process of a top 4 finish when he nearly fell at the last and ended up 7th of 1lbs higher. I think he ran an eye-catching race over too short a trip in the Paddy Power here, and if he can travel that well for most of that race he will do well here over a more suitable longer trip. I think his place chance looks very decent and 25/1 with 5 places is worth a bet.


    1 Point EW 25/1 5 Places Bet365
