See our Cheltenham tips page for more tips and best bets!

2.40pm - Dinoblue

Came 2nd in this race in 2024 before going one better in emphatic style on better ground 12 months ago.

Improved for her come back effort at Navan at the start of the season to win her last two runs over fences, showing an improvement in her stamina to win over 22 furlongs.

Has the standout form in the field and on quick ground can outpace her rivals here.

3.20pm - Doctor Steinberg

Enhanced his credentials as a staying hurdles with an impressive victory in the Grade One novice event at the Dublin Racing Festival, doing plenty wrong but still having enough stamina and class to pull away well from the front.

Will need to settle to get this 3 miles but front runners are proving hard to peg back this week and he's got the ability to get these in trouble from the front.

4.00pm - Inothewayurthinkin Top 3 Finish

Won this race last year by six lengths, and always comes alive in spring at this course (won the Kim Muir the season before). Cheek pieces should help his jumping and stamina test will suit him perfectly.

Rated 170, joint highest in the field, and only needs to finish top 3 to land our bet.

Macho Man

Arrived in Ireland for training for Willie Mullins with some decent hurdle form in the books already, getting the better of Feel Gut in France. That rival coming out and winning in good style for Nicky Henderson since.

Sent off a warm favourite for the Hurdle won by Proactif at Fairyhouse, looking inexperienced. With more time and that second run under his belt he can put another another good run.

Sixandahalf

Makes handicap debut off a very reasonable mark of 139, considering this six yera old was second in the Mares' Novices' Hurdle at last year's Festival. She's been highly tried on the Flat this season, including in the Irish Casarewitch, and was only 7.5 lengths behind Wodhooh on her last start.

She's still lightly raced and open to much improvement, and her handicap mark has been protected since that last run. Jockey Conor Stone-Walsh is an excellent booking too.

Sinnatra

The Skelton yard have a terrific record in this race and know how to get one snuck into the handicap with a good chance. Novice hurdler Sinnatra has some smart form in the books already behind Turner’s Novice Hurdle 2nd Act Of Innocence and won impressively under a penalty at Warwick last time out.

Has a perfect blend of speed and stamina for this test and rates as one that will prove better than a mark of 133.

The Passing Wife

Steps up in trip having last run over three miles back in March 2023 when winning his debut Point to Point. Showed plenty of stamina to pull well clear at Punchestown on Heavy over 2m 3f in January and trainer won this in 2021 so knows the profile required.

Envoi Allen

Ten Grade 1 wins, and an overall record of 17 wins from his 30 career starts with over £1.1 million in prize money. Second in a Grade 1 when last seen and showed last time out he's still a quality horse when winning a Grade 1. Has been given a light campaign last two years but goes well fresh.

Panda Boy

Some classy back form over fences in staying handicap chases and has shaped well since being switched to the Hunter Chase sphere this season, winning twice at Thurles and Navan. Comes into this as joint top rated and having plenty of stamina and class.

Stattler

A previous Cheltenham Festival winner (the National Hunt Chase in 2022). Long break after the 2024 Grand National but two Hunter Chase runs this season to qualify for this race - 2nd and 1st - show still very competitive.

Top quality jockey booking in Patrick Mullins and plenty of stamina.

Open Secret

Stays well over this trip and has a nice looking profile for the race for last year’s winner Gordon Elliott. Broke the maiden tag at the 3rd time of asking at Naas before running well in a Grade 2 over C+D on Trials Day. Shaped well again in a Graded race last time out, only being beaten by 3/4L. A mark of 133 could just underestimate him in this company.

Act Of Authority

Second in this race last year behind Wodhooh, and is just one pound higher this year. Has won well this season over a mix of distances, and cheekpieces on to sharpen up his jumping.

Regular jockey Lewis Saunders is booked (who also rode last year) and trainer Olly Murphy has already had a 3rd place finish from just two runners at the Festival so far this year.
