CHELTENHAM PREVIEW 2012 EXETER
Taken from another racing forum - Cheltenham Preview Night - Thurs 23rd February - Exeter Racecourse The Panel consisted of Paul Nicholls David Pipe Philip Hobbs Paul Binfield representing sponsors Paddy Power Nick Williams Andrew King (Racing Post) Paul Jones (Cheltenham Trends) Zoey Bird, Compère DAY 1 1.30 Supreme Novices’ Hurdle 2m 1/2f This is clearly a very open race and there was no clear selection from the panel Philip Hobbs stated Colour Squadron was fine after his recent fall, and should go very well Paul Nicholls says Prospect Wells is very classy at home, and goes there with a decent chance, allowing for poor effort last time Paul Jones thinks Simonsig will run Neptune, but if running in the Supreme would win Steps to Freedom has the best form, whilst Midnight Game is improving Andrew King thought Darlan had a good chance Paul Binfield thought Galileo’s Choice was the best of the Irish 2.05 Irish Independent Arkle Challenge Trophy Steeple Chase 2m Paul Binfield said it was quite possible Sprinter Sacre could go off at odds on Paul Nicholls thought Sprinter Sacre was by no means certain to stay as he has done all his top class form on flat tracks Philip Hobbs says Menorah jumps well at home, but does make the odd mistake, which he will need to avoid on the day Doesn’t think anything can beat Sprinter Sacre Paul Jones says Sprinter Sacre is the one to beat, reminded us the best “hurdler” often wins the Arkle, and that would be Peddlers Cross David Pipe thought Sprinter Sacre had too much pace for the rest Andrew King wanted to oppose Sprinter Sacre big time, doesn’t think Cheltenham will suit, similar to the Supreme last year 2.40 William Hill Trophy Handicap Steeple Chase 3m 1/2f Not a lot on this race David Pipe said The Package should run well in this race, although the Grand National was his main aim Massini’s Maguire may also take his chance 3.20 Smurfit Kappa Champion Hurdle Challenge Trophy 2m 1/2f Paul Binfield thought Zarkandar had a decent chance of beating Hurricane Fly Paul Nicholls thought he had a chance and would be better than he was at Newbury Also said Zarkandar was on anti-biotics and would finish the course next couple days, but seemed OK Also thought Rock on Ruby was way overpriced on form with Binocular Brampour will run and may have EW squeak, Celestial Halo will take his chance Andrew King thought Binocular was the EW bet, impressed with last win 4.00 Glenfarclas Cross Country Handicap Steeple Chase 3m 7f Nothing on this race discussed in detail Paul Jones asked Philip Hobbs about Balthazar King, and I thought he got quite a positive response to his chances 14-1 EW not the worse bet in this race 4.40 David Nicholson Mares’ Hurdle Race 2m 4f Nobody can see Quevega being beaten However Nick Williams was very keen on Swinford Flame‘s chance Each Way 5.15 Centenary Novice handicap Chase 2m 4.5f Again not a lot discussed although Criqtonic mentioned as having a decent chance DAY 2 1.30 National Hunt Steeple Chase Challenge Cup 4m Nothing mentioned 2.05 Neptune Investment Novices’ Hurdle 2m 5f Philip Hobbs said Fingal Bay was 50/50 after injuring a hamstring Paul Jones thought Boston Bob had the soundest chance, indeed had the best novice hurdle form at the meeting Also didn’t think Simonsig would win this if running Andrew King thought it was between Fingal bay and Boston Bob Paul Nicholls said he had been told this would be Boston Bob‘s target 2.40 RSA Steeple Chase 3m 1/2f David Pipe said Grand Crus was in great form at home, probably wouldn’t decide on the race, until the 5 day decs. Andrew king thought Bobs Worth would go well, but Grand Crus would win if running Paul Nicholls said Join Together has won twice at the course, and would stay on as well as anything in the race Paul Jones respected Invictus and Bobs Worth who is 3/3 at Cheltenham Indeed thought Bobs Worth EW at 5-1 was one of the best bets at the meeting 3.20 Sportingbet Queen Mother Champion Steeple Chase 2m Paul Binfield thought Big Zeb was the better bet at the prices Philip Hobbs says Wishfull Thinking has breathing problems, not sure they are resolved still he is not quite right. Paul Jones thinks Sizing Europe is the best chaser in training anything above Evens is a decent bet Andrew King thought Wishfull Thinking at his best would be interesting 4.00 Coral Cup (Handicap Hurdle) 2m 5f Lots of horses but no information specific to the Coral Cup, most horses are multiple entries 4.40 Fred Winter Juvenile Handicap Hurdle 2m 1/2f Hinterland will run in this race and hopefully go well 5.15 Weatherbys Champion Bumper (Open NH Flat Race) 2m 1/2f Paul Binfield thinks Sword of Honour is a decent EW bet Philip Hobbs thought Village Vic would run very well Andrew King likes New Years Eve and Population Paul Jones said that the top BHA rated horse on the flat do run well in this race, and Moscow Mannon would be the horse backed on the day Nick Williams said Horatio Hornblower was nice horse and would run, if the going had “soft” in it DAY 3 1.30 Jewson Novices’ Handicap Steeple Chase 2m 5f Paul Nicholls said Cristal Bonus was running on Saturday and should go well, and then would run in this race, as long as going was soft enough Nick Williams thought For Non Stop had a good chance but no more than that Paul Jones thought he had never seen Ruby Walsh look happier than the last time he got off Cristal Bonus who jumps for fun, also likes Sir Des Champs, winner would come form one of these two Andrew king thought For Non Stop could go off favourite and was the most likely winner 2.05 Pertemps Final Handicap Hurdle) 3m David Pipe expected Buena Vista to run well again, he had been concerned from two races ago, when he seemed to lose form, but last run was pretty good Buena Vista still has a chance on official rating Paul Nicholls was keen on Sonofvic, 20-1 seems a decent price 2.40 Ryanair Chase 2m 5f Paul Binfield said Noble Prince is the selection here, last race, ground was too soft Massive chance this time David pipe thought Great Endeavour had a really good chance which would improve on better going Andrew King thought it was between Somersby and Great Endeavour Paul Jones thought Somersby was very good EW bet, but not sure he wouldn’t go for the Queen Mother Chase. Great Endeavour and Medermit needed to find around 7lbs 3.20 Ladbrokes World Hurdle 3m Paul Nicholls said Big Buck’s was Ok, no cough Indeed he said the older horses all seem Ok, it’s just the younger ones who have shown some signs Big Buck’s has come on from last run He did think Oscar Whisky would be his toughest challenger yet David Pipe said Big Buck’s was certainty and that Dynaste was playing for one of the places Paul Jones wished they would run Thousand Stars in this race rather than Champion Hurdle 4.00 Byrne Group Plate Handicap Steeple Chase 2m 5f Paul Nicholls said Crack Away Jack would run here, seemed quite keen on a decent run as well I thought David Pipe said Salut Flo was entered in just about every race; there was some money for this one yesterday in this race 4.40 Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup Handicap Steeple Chase 3m 1 1/2f No discussion on this race DAY 4 1.30 JCB Triumph Hurdle 2m 1f Minsk is the favourite for this race, not run all season – unbelievable. Philip Hobbs said Sadlers Risk runs this Saturday, very happy with him Nick Williams said Urbain De Sivola would run if ground was on the soft side Paul Nicholls said Pearl Swan has the best form so far of his horses, but also said Dildar runs this Saturday, against Sadlers Risk I got the impression he has very high hopes for Dildar Andrew king liked Grumeti and Pearl Swan Paul Jones thought Minsk could go off as low at 2-1, as his flat form is far in excess of anything else Paul Binfield likes Darroun Paul Nicholls did say he wouldn’t be surprised if Minsk never ran either this weekend or at Cheltenham! 2.05 Vincent O’Brien County Handicap Hurdle 2m 1f Philip Hobbs said Snap Tie is in good form, he reported this last year but the horse never got in, hasn’t run for two years, so you’d want a very big price, not sure 33-1 is big enough to tempt me 2.40 Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle 3m Paul Nicholls very keen on Rocky Creek As mentioned earlier he believes Boston Bob will go to the Neptune Andrew King thought Rocky Creek would go off 7-2 if Boston Bob was NR, so 10-1 at the moment was excellent Paul Jones was not taken by Brindisi Breeze last run, not up to the standard to win this race 3.20 totesport Cheltenham Gold Cup Steeple Chase 3m 2 1/2f Much of this was taken up discussing the merits of Long Run‘s last run, and whether Grand Crus would run Paul Jones thought the front two were vulnerable, and that Weird Al was the best bet at 20-1 Andrew king thought What a Friend EW, although Paul Nicholls dismissed this saying 3rd was his best chance if everyone turned up Paul Nicholls said Kauto Star was in top form at home, as good as he has seen him Wasn’t sure Long Run had trained on, and that meant there was not a lot between them Philip Hobbs was asked about Captain Chris, he said he has always jumped right, so that was not an issue as such, however he was not at his best IF HE RAN it would be Ryanair or Gold Cup, however then said he wouldn’t really want more than 3 miles, so I give him next to no chance of running in the Gold Cup, and I got the impression he was by no means certain to run at the Festival 4.00 Christie’s Foxhunter Steeple Chase 3m 2 1/2f No discussion, although couple of tips at the end 4.40 Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle 2m 4 1/2f As usual; David Pipe gets questioned on this race, however he said it is very difficult to even get a horse in this race, he tried with Grand Crus a couple years ago, but couldn’t as he had an OR of only 124 A few mentioned and maybe the most likely is Salut Flo if this 5.15 Johnny Henderson Grand Annual Steeple Chase 2m 1/2f No discussion on this race Charity Bets Andrew King Rocky Creek Albert Bartlett Paul Jones On The fringe Foxhunters Zoey Bird Scotsirish Cross Country Nick Williams Swincombe Flame EW David Nicholson Mares Paul Nicholls Chapoturgeon Foxhunters David Pipe Alfie Spinner National Hunt Chase Paul Binfield Salsify Foxhunters Philip Hobbs Sadlers Risk Triumph |

So looks like Brampour is Champion Hurdle bound - that'll effect a couple of the hadicaps because he is clear top weight in them
Celestial Halo - looks like Champion Hurdle instead of some kind of pacemaker for Bucksy Paul Nichols believes Boston Bob will run in the Neptune Wishful Thinking still has breathing problems Captain Chris not a certain runner in any festival race |

By:
Interesting Pipe going for Alfie Spinner rather than one of his own like other trainers have
|
|
By:
Horatio Hornblower definitely one to keep an eye on.
|
|
By:
Indeed, he was impressive at Newbury in a hot race, but who was the last maiden to win the Bumper? nevertheless, he might be my day of race bet

By:
probably the same for me stront - I was meaning keep an eye on longer term really.
Lavelle's got one in Benign Dictator too - you know, those horses you see and can't wait for them to go over jumps. |

Attended the Paddy Power Westmanstown Preview last night and this is what I took from the evening.
1. Jessica Harrington is very sweet on Steps to Freedom - was probably over the top for last Cheltenham run after long flat season and will be much better for better ground. Personally I think he is teh EW bet of the meeting 2. Boston Bob will win whatever race he goes for 3. Back the Davy Russell/Gigginstown horse in the RSA (First Lieutenant/Sir Des Champs) with Davy really hoping they will be split up. I think he would prefer Sir Des Champs to run in this but I feel Mouse may get his way. 4. Willie tipped up Sweet My Lord as his EW bet so worth taking a closer look at this 5. The better Irish horses not going for the bumper again this year so look at best English form - Royal Guardsman/Shutthefrontdoor races |

By:
All were unanimous on Hurricane Fly / Quevega / Sprinter Sacre / Big Bucks winning at the festival. I understand that picking the big dogs to win each race is predictable and safe, but they are very high on all of the above, and avoiding individual mistakes, they will all win.
Boston Bob and Nobel Prince (BG’s pick of the Festival) were also held in very high regard. Paul Nicholls and Willie Mullins were brought in by conference call, they didn’t give away too much, but Mullins picked out Sweet My Lord as his e/w punt of the festival in the Pertemps, and Nicholls outlined that he thought Zarkander was a very good e/w punt. DR = Davy Russell RW = Ruby Walsh BG = Barry Geraghty PP = Paddy Power CM = Colm Murphy DMcC = Don McClean JH = Jessica Harraington Tuesday 13th 13.30 Supreme Novices Hurdle RW - Darlan JH - Steps to Freedom (very high on this horse) BG - Darlan DMcC - Steps to Freedom 14.05 Arkle BG - Sprinter Sacre (thinks the horse is top class and won't be beaten) RW - Thinks Al Ferof must improve to beat Sprinter. Go for Al Ferof on PP's Money Back Special PP - Sprinter Sacre JH - Sprinter Sacre (BG informs her that this horse may be better than Moscow Flyer) DR - Peddlers Cross to place CM - Sprinter Sacre DMcC - Sprinter Sacre 15.20 Champion Hurdle RW - Hurricane, no doubts PP - Hurricane JH - Oscar Wells to place, Hurricane to romp. BG - Hurricane (nailed on) / Oscar is value DR - Hurricane CM - Binocular to be 2nd, better than people think DMcC - Hurricane Wednesday 14th 13.30 National Hunt Chase RW - Alle Garde on good ground PP - watch out for who Mullins puts in the race 14.05 Neptune DMcC - Monksland PP - Monksland good value RW - whatever Wille Mullins runs JH - Simonsig if runs 14.40 RSA Chase RW - Grand Crus is very beatable and reckons Sir Des Champs has a good chance if runs BG - Bobs Worth has a big chance (3 for 3 in Chelts) PP - Bobs Worth DR - Call the Police has a chance if runs JH - watch out for W Mullins who he runs CM - whatever horse D Russell rides (if he rides First Lieutenant in particular) DMcC - First Lieutenant *MO'L - e/w bet on First Lieutenant (Michael O’Leary was asked on a radio show for a pick out of his horses) **I got the feeling from the panel that First Lieutenant will win this race, but that’s just my feeling! 15.20 QM Chase JH - Sizing Europe (but closer than people think!) DR - good ground = good for Zeb PP - Sizing Europe a cert RW - Sizing hard to beat DMcC - top 2 will be close CM - very happy with the way Zeb is going at the minute BG - Zeb willl be closer than people think to SIzing Thursday 15th 14.40 Ryanair Chase JH - Albertas Run / Rubi Light RW - Albertas Run could surprise everyone and pop up and win, Rubi Light vulnerable on good ground DMcC - Nobel Prince has a huge chance DR - Nobel Prince is his bet of the festival - NAP BG - Respect paid to Somersby CM - Nobel Prince and Somersby DMcC - Nobel Prince (but will be competitive) 15.20 World Hurdle RW - Bucks (w/ Thousand Stars doing well) BG - Thousand Stars is value, but Bucks will win PP - Bucks JH - Bucks DR - Bucks CM - Voler la Vadette e/w (he runs in this race defo) DMcC - Bucks (w/ thousand stars) 17.15 Champion Bumper **STEER CLEAR OF THIS RACE was the main opinion PP - Moscow Mannion best of the Irish, but Irish will more than likely not win it DR - Royal Guardsman JH - Moscow Mannion (although you should wait till the day of the race and see what the word is) CM – Nigel Twiston Davies horse, whatever he is called Friday 16th 13.30 Triumph Hurdle PP - Alot of money for Ranjann / Shadow Catcher / Balder Success RW - Ut di Sivola impressive horse, as is Pearl Swan JH - doesnt know DR - steer clear of this race!! BG - Lyvius (if she performs well in Newbury this Friday - watch out for this) CM - Sadlers Risk DMcC - Shadow Catcher good value 14.40 Albert Bartlett DR - Ipsos Du Berle is good horse BG - Boston Bob / Mount Benbulben DMcC - Mount Benbulben interesting horse **Boston Bob got very good backing by RW, no matter what race he is in, he doesn’t think it matters. 15.20 Gold Cup DR - Long Run is the best horse in the race / Midnight Chase is a good e/w punt RW - Kauto needs to be at very best to beat Long Run - but he wouldnt back Kauto, nor would he get off him. Long Run should win it BG - everything is in Long Runs favour JH - Burton Port e/w PP - Long Run DMcC - Wouldnt back Long Run @ 5/2, and believes Weird Al willl push them and good e/w bet OTHER NOTES JH - Citizenship e/w whatever race she runs him in is a good bet Paul Flynn - Moondice doing very well - defo worth an e/w punt CHARITY BETS of €200 each DMcC - Nobel Prince with the lot CM - half on Scotsirish / half on Somersby BG - Bobs Worth with the lot DR - Nobel Prince - NAP JH - the lot on Steps To Freedom RW - half on Boston Bob (he will win) / half on Ted Spread (County Hurdle) PP - the lot on Sacre WILLIE MULLINS - Quevega and Hurricane in good fettle (will win) - Midnight Game in the Supreme (likes the hard ground) - BOSTON BOB is his real hope, he reckons he would be very disapointed is he doesnt win - Uncle Junior ahead of Scotsirish - both will love ground, but Scots has never won over this trip - Sir Des Champs is doing everything right, is a course winner, he is gonna be good - Loving Alle Garde, he will float on that ground. - Mourad is coming back to himself, defo worth an e/w punt - Champagne Fever has a huge cruising speed and will do well - Thousand Stars will run in the Champion Hurdle - E/W TIP of the FESTIVAL is Sweet My Lord in the Pertemps - Boston Bob is on track PAUL NICHOLLS - Bucks in good form (will win) - Oscar Whiskey is the only danger whatsoever. - Rock on Ruby is in good form, has a great chance - Prospect Wells has a good e/w chance - Crystal Bonus is someone that he is high on, good e/w - Harry the Viking is 4/4 this year, stays forever, has a good chance - Join Together is one of his best chances in the festival - REALLY likes ULK DU LIN in the Fred Winter on the wednesday - Banker = Bucks - e/w punt = Zarkander! |

Thanks for the summary CVB. These previews are entertaining though I'm not sure how helpful they are in terms of backing winners. My lifetime experience of jockeys is that they are the worst tipsters of the lot, followed closely by trainers!!!

By:
Cheers CVB, sounds like a well above average preview night.

By:
Great read CV. So Ruby said Long Run should win the GC?

Thank you to CVByrne ( and others ) for the time taken to attend and write up. Good to read the views of the Great Donn especially. He's never too far from the mark.
