Tips for Wednesday 17th March

CHELTENHAM DAY 2

1.30 PRESENTING FOREVER (14/1)

Stable in cracking form and a good jockey booking makes this a value selection.A good 2nd last time out to the promising Wogan also reads quite well.

2.05 PEDDLERS CROSS (13/2)

Value to take on the two Irish horses at the head of the market and good reports coming from connections who are expecting a very big run.

2.40 LONG RUN (2/1)

Not a selection to get rich quick on but im on at bigger prices ante post,the only problem for me is the inexperienced jockey on board.A quality horse who only has Punchestowns to beat and with that horse having a problem on the run up to this im pretty confident Long Run is the one to be on.

3.20 WELL CHIEF (33/1)

Master Minded should win this with a clear round of jumping but this horse is the forgotten one and at this price a must e/w bet.Not as good as maybe two years ago but its record at Cheltenham is superb not finishing out of the two and runs well after more than a months break. I just think this is worth a bet as the favourite is 10/11 at present and will be backed.

4.00 WISHFULL THINKING (11/1)

A novice rapidly improving and should go very close and no suprise to see this backed tomorrow.

4.40 NOTUS DE LA TOUR (11/2)

The word from the Pipe stable is this should win and they would be very disappointed if this dosent run a big race.

5.15 FRAWLEY (16/1)

Had a good word for this but being a Bumper i would not put you off backing anything Irish as there record in this is outstanding.Another at a big price thats interesting is Shannon Spirits with Nina Carberry on board but with only one run to his name its taking a chance.

Lets hope for another great day of racing and keep the winners flowing.Good luck all
