I have to be in the City tomorrow afternoon and I hate betting on races I can't see live. So small stakes tomorrow.
Boringly I can't see Inglis and Kauto being beaten nor do I see the third race being a betting proposition.
In the Hunter chase Katarino is an old favourite that has won me a lot over the years ( a Triumph winner being such a good chaser)but I discount him and TTAT (who never wins when I back him) in favour of Christy Beamish. A darn good PtP horse who did well coming second last year and has a better jockey this time. Will also do a RFComb. containing the 3.
Leslingtaylor stands out in the next. Patently does not like Cheltenham's undulations but form here and at Doncaster is excellent. The Bet of the Day for me.
Group Captain did not perform for me at the Festival but even so can't back him to beat Franchoek. Rob Wright in the Times naps Kealshore Boy. Since he is the Tips Champion and someone whose selection of one of my fancies often persuades me to increase my bet, I have had a good look and although I can't see anything have put on a couple of quid at 31/1 on Betfair
I'll be backing Junior as another one that did not like (the hill) at Cheltenham having looked to have got the race in the bag at the last. Danger County Zen.
23.17pm. Just read Wright's column and see that he's also gone for Christy Beamish and Leslingtaylor- for the exactly same reasons I have. I got there on my own , honest Guv.
