March 2023

Hi all,

What a fantastic four days of sport we’ve just witnessed. I said the festival had to deliver after a less than stellar jumps season. Well, it did, and for me it one of the best Cheltenham Festival’s in years.  

A nice profit made for Victor Value subscribers thanks in the main to fabulous Thursday and Iroko (advised 8/1) who looked to be going no way on the home turn but stayed on strongly to land the Martin Pipe Handicap Hurdle.

That will do for me given we have just seen the four hardest days of racing of the whole calendar year.

You can read my thoughts on Gold Cup Day in Monday’s column. I’m concentrating on Saturday action inside today’s main piece with a preview of the Midlands Grand National.

Hi all,

Just like Christmas when you were a child. You wait for a whole year and it’s all over so quickly. Yes, we’ve come to final day of this year’s Cheltenham Festival.

We saw a superstar in action on Tuesday in the shape of Constitution Hill. And we could see another one in today in Galopin Des Champs in this afternoon’s Gold Cup.

Inside today’s main piece I look back at Thursday’s highlights and there’s a few stat pointers for Friday’s card.

Hi all,

Where already onto day three of the festival and the action switches from the Old Course to the New Course. There are three Grade 1’s, one Grade 2 and three handicaps for punters to get stuck into today.

Hi all,

Inside today’s main piece I’m looking at the four Grade 1’s on Day 2 of the Cheltenham Festival. Plus, there some more race stats and at the end some suggestions if you’re playing the Scoop 6 an/or Placepot.  

First, a few quick thoughts on yesterday’s action.
