Overturn profits as Oscar Whisky stumbles

Members of the Redd Racing VIP Betting Club were given just the one selection yesterday, to back Overturn in The Ascot Hurdle. They were rewarded with a 5/2 winner.

 

Many shrewd judges fancied Overturn to beat the favourite Oscar Whisky, but in the end it was an easy success for Donald McCain’s charge after the market leader tipped up at the last when challenging the winner, who was able to canter home from his trailing rivals.

Long Run will be hard to beat in Betfair Chase

Gold Cup champion is the one to beat in this afternoon's Betfair Chase at Haydock. Trainer Paul Nicholl's speaking on The Morning Line said,

 

On all known form he's the best horse in the race. He's a class horse and I think he will be very hard to beat.

 

A mouthwatering clash with Kauto Star could be the highlight of today's racing

Swift Chap lives up to his name

New members enjoying a week of free horse racing tips collected on a 11/1 winner yesterday at Wincanton as Swift Chap came home in the handicap hurdle over two and a half miles.

Darren O´Dwyer, assistant to Philip Hobbs, said,

The step up in trip has helped Swift Chap. He wouldn´t want the ground heavy and may have a break over the winter.

The race was a modest but competitive start to the meeting. The pace looked sound. Swift Chap finished in front of Calico Rose last time (extended 2 miles at Chepstow) when cheek-pieces were refitted, but was unproven at this distance and was weak in the market. However, he got himself into contention despite needing to be pushed along and ground out a pleasing success.

Trainer with a foot in both camps

Trainer and Queen's Counsel Graeme McPherson has been in the racing news quite a bit recently after being accused and fined for schooling a horse at Chepstow.

It's abhorrent to me that anyone could suggest I had been cheating in some way. I would not embarrass myself by cheating, or embarrass the BHA by cheating. I know the rules as well as any trainer and the importance of abiding by them as well as any trainer.

Ian at Geegeez has penned an excellent article covering the story. Read it here...

That was the week....

It's Friday again, and the end of an important week in the National Hunt calendar. The Grand Annual Chase has just finished, to bring the curtain down on another Cheltenham Festival. The highlight for me was to see Kauto Star reclaim his Gold Cup crown earlier today. I honestly did not think he would do it, and he made history by doing so, so one has to tip the old hat in respect. It was good to see Denman also back to form when finishing runner-up. Trainer of the week, obviously Paul Nicholls. And a record-breaking seven wins for Ruby Walsh puts him at the top of the jockey tree.

Daily members were given five bets to back at The Festival, and we enjoyed two winners in Wichita Lineman at 5/1 on Tuesday, and Chapoturgeon yesterday at 8/1

We didn't lay any horses at Cheltenham, which is par for the course as the races are typically very competitive and prices generally too high.

The VIP members had mixed results: on Tuesday we saw Celestial Halo finish 2nd in the Champion Hurdle by just a neck at 17/2 each way, followed on Wednesday by Petit Robin 3rd in the Queen Mother Champion Chase at 12/1 each way. Kasbah Bliss was a disappointing loser yesterday in the World Hurdle, and Star De Mohaison was the last of the finishers today in the Gold Cup.

These are the results for the week ending Friday 13th March:

Back-to-win bets
15 bets and 4 winners at 7/1, 6/1, 10/3, and 8/1
13 points profit

Lay-to-lose bets
4 bets and 4 winners
7 points profit
