May top up on Big Buck's later on.


Another minefield day at Cheltenham today, with plenty of wide open races. Decided to have a look at Hexham, Howard Johnson usually likes a few winners here as it is just down the road. Not many better jockeys around Hexham than Brian Hughes either.

Looking at the County tomorrow looks a mine field.

I have Soldatino 16s E/W but like the look of Blackstairmountain, Get Me Out Of Here if right for this plus Bellvano which I backed last year and looked like it was tanking until pulling out.

Alaivan is 8/1 who has beaten Carlito Brigante the last two times they have meet, Carlito Brigante won the Coral Cup mickey easy off 142 and with Russell 2lb over weight, Alaivan gets in this off 144 hmmmmm.

Really fancy Indian Daudaie at 25/1 in the Martin Pipe tomorrow, ran well on its first run for Nicholls in Triumph Hurdle Trial behind two good horses Third Intention and Local Hero while giving them 3lbs, Nicholls then sent it to run a Grade 1 in Ireland well beaten 7 lengths by Welds very good looking Unaccompanied, he's stuck an 8lb claimer on who won a bumper for him the other day.
