Cheltenham System Tips Day 2

Sire Du Grugy

1:30

1^st Red Sherlock 4/1 – 65

2^nd Killala Quay 33/1 – 50

3^rd Knock House 50/1 – 45

3^rd Creepy 50/1 – 45

4^th Royal Boy 13/2 – 40

Red Sherlock has scored very highly on this and as i backed him myself at double those odds, i feel quite happy. However Faugheen looks the horse to beat and i am really shocked not to see him on this. Creepy could be interesting though, scored highly and tried a hood for the first time. Might be worth a small e/w

2:05

1^st Le Bec 14/1 – 85

2^nd Don Cossack 12/1 – 60

2^nd Sam Winner 12/1 – 60

3^rd Black Thunder 20/1 – 50

3^rd Just A Par 22/1 – 50

3^rd O’Faolains Boy 16/1 – 50

4^th Ballycasey 5/1 – 45

4^th Garvey Chambertin 33/1 – 45

Le Bec looks to have a good solid chance here, everything seems to suit. I would worry about O’Faolains, i think he is better than what the system suggests . But another very tight race here.

2:40

1^st Dunguib 10/1 – 60

2^nd  Far West  16/1 – 55

3^rd Party Rock 20/1 – 50

3^rd Sametagel 33/1 – 50

4^th Whisper 18/1 – 45

4^th Ifandbutwhynot 28/1 – 45

Another tight race but Dunguib looks the likely winner her. Far West did well and i would fancy his chances. One to point out is Party Rock who’s stats stood out and i think would make a good e/w bet

3:20

1^st Captain Conan 5/1 – 95

2^nd Sizing Europe 12/1 – 75

3^rd Sire Du Grugy 3/1 – 65

4^th Kid Cassidy 11/1 – 60

5^th Hinterland 10/1 – 55

I thought Sire Du Grugy would be top of this, although i am a fan of Captain Conan. Captain Conan is ok e/w chance to so might be worth sticking with him.

4:00

1^st Diamond Harry 20/1 – 65

2^nd Big Shu 9/2 – 60

2^nd Hey Big Spender 33/1 – 60

3^rd Balthazar King 5/1 – 55

4^th Sire Collonges 12/1 – 50

5^th Uncle Junior 16/1 – 40

Big Shu is very much fancied to win this but at 20/1 Diamond Harry offers a good e/w price.

4:40

1^st Handiwork  33/1 – 50

2^nd Dawalan 6/1 – 45

3^rd Violet Dancer 20/1 – 40

4^th Keltus 20/1 – 30

Not  happy with this system, there was just not much to go on. I think i would take this result with a pinch of salt although Dawalan looks good, but i think Katgary might be interesting

5:15
1st Oscarteera 33/1 - 70
2nd Our Kaempfer 25/1 - 55
3rd Seven Nation Army 33/1 - 50
3rd Shaneshill 7/1 - 50
4th Golantilla 12/1 - 45
4th Zeroshadesofgrey 40/1 - 45
Surprised Oscarteera came out top, as i expected the Irish contingent too. However Oscarteera could be a good e/w and with earplugs added it might calm him down. I would expect the winner to come from this lot though.
