Day four and it’s the big one, the totesport Gold Cup off at 15.20pm will see the race’s previous two winners go head to head in National Hunt racing’s blue riband event.

Kauto Star is currently the 15/8 favourite to be the first horse ever to regain the race. The trends in general are in favour with the Clive Smith owned 9yo being the right age and having the obvious course form. Add to that a fine display winning his third King George he’s a genuine favourite here. Last season’s sensational winner Denman has had illness and injury worries since and ran poorly on his reappearance at Kempton last month. His price has drifted as a result and is an 11/2 shot with totesport. The horse that beat him at Kempton is Madison Du Berlais, who also won the Hennessy back in November. His form has been spot on but could be overlooked here over doubts as to whether he’ll like the undulating Cheltenham course.

Another horse catching the eye is in the trends book is Alberta’s Run. He won the RSA Chase at last years festival and like Denman the year before he’ll be looking to follow that up by winning the Gold Cup. Despite finishing second to Kauto Star at the King George on Boxing Day he’s thrown in some real stinkers this season and that’s reflected in his price at 16/1 with totesport.

Others with a claim include Paul Nicholls third string Neptunes Collonges, the second favourite at 5/1. Last years third won well in the Irish Hennessy last month and although he jumps and stays all day I’m not sure he has the speed to beat Kauto up the hill.

Looking at outsiders, Barbers Shop would be a popular win as he’s owned by the Queen and his form as runner up in the Paddy Power to today’s Ryanair Chase winner Imperial Commander looks good. At 14/1 he looks the one at a price to take on Kauto Star.

Thursday kicks off at 13.30 with the fifth running of the Jewson Novices Handicap Chase. This 2 mile 5 furlong chase attracts those not suited to the Arkle or the RSA Chase and Chapoturgeon looks a likely favourite, currently 7/1 with totesport in the non runner no bet market. The Paul Nicholls trained 5yo won last time out at Doncaster and could give Nicholls his first win in this race.

The trends suggest a 5yo cannot win this with all four previous winners seven year olds. Looking further down the trends all four previous winners have been all officially rated 123-133 and have had a top two finish last time out. That whittles the field down and we’ve picked out three decent priced horses making the trip over from Ireland. Knock on the Head, Horner Woods and Auroras Encore are all around the 20, 25/1 mark and could run a big race in what looks like an open contest.

The Ryanair Chase also looks a wide open race, despite Voy Por Ustedes commanding evens favourtism with totesport in the non runner no bet market. The former Arkle and Champion Chase winner has stepped up in trip to swerve Master Minded in this years Queen Mother and obviously has claims here. However, after running a stinker at Aintree over this trip earlier in the season and regular jockey Robert Thornton admitting he can be quirky there’s enough reason to oppose here.

There’s enough trends to suit runners here, but you can probably put a line through Monet’s Garden who doesn’t like Cheltenham. Our Vic, winner here last here has only one run to his name this season when he pulled up in the King George on Boxing Day and is difficult to back here at 6/1 to repeat last years success. There are question marks over whether Tidal Bay will run and his form has been erratic this season after blowing the field away in last years Arkle. That leaves Imperial Commander as the main contest for the favourite and although there are obvious questions over whether he’s good enough, he does have an impressive Paddy Power Gold Cup win to his name back here in November.

The feature race sees one of the weeks hottest favourites look to go one better than last year in the World Hurdle at 15.20. French trained Kasbah Bliss (11/10) looks a good thing here after pushing dual winner Inglis Drever all the way twelve months ago. That form followed up with an impressive reappearance at Haydock in February and has the trends of a World Hurdle winner.

Looking at the trends you could put a line through all but four of the runners. Big Bucks, Punchestowns and Fair Along finished first, second and third respectively in the Cleeve Hurdle back in January and although the ground will be better come Thursday they still have to go some to beat the favourite in my book. In fact, the outsider of the trio Fair Along looks a decent each-way bet at 11/1 with totesport.

Day two of the Cheltenham Festival. sees another plethora of top quality horse racing and totesport has every angle covered for your betting pleasure.

If you haven’t already done your dough on the marathon 4m first race, the Ballymore Properties Novices’ Hurdle is always a hot betting heat and this year looks no different. There’s currently three co favourites heading the non runner no bet market for this one, with Mikael D’Hagunet, Karabak and Diamond Harry at the top of the betting. The Willie Mullins Mikael D’Hagunet has an excellent chance if the ground comes up soft on Wednesday, with the forecast suggesting it may well do. Willie Mullins 5yo has won four on the bounce in Ireland, all on soft ground and will provide a test to long time favourite Diamond Harry. Nick Williams 6yo has won four from four this season showing that he’s adept if unconventional in varying conditions. Currently 7/2 with totesport he appears friendless in the market and will probably go off bigger on the day. Karabak is the horse with all the betting momentum, as big as 20/1 at the turn of the year he’s now also a 7/2 shot with totesport in their non runner no bet market. Two wins in his last two races (including a win at Cheltenham) the Alan King trained 6yo is dramatically improved. Add to that JP McManus snapping him up the prices has plummeted and looks as though he’ll go off favourite on Wednesday. Elsewhere, the Nicky Henderson trained Mad Max has claims. The 7yo is unbeaten and looks a promising runner. At 6/1 he represents some bigger value than the three battling it out at the head of the betting.

In the 1440 RSA Chase Massini’s Maguire could go well at a big price 12/1 with totesport. He has festival form having won the Ballymore Properties Hurdle back in 2007. After a lengthy spell on the sidelines with injury he looks to have bounced back well not finishing out of the frame in his three starts this season, including a runners up to Breezebreeze in the Feltham. There are plenty of question marks as well but I’m one for course form so I think it’ll run a big race and worth an each-way bet at that price. Favourtism looks as though it’ll be battled out for by Cooldine and What a Friend. Ruby Walsh had the pick of rides here and looks as though he’s plumbed for the Willie Mullins former here. Cooldine is currently a 7/2 favourite with What a Friend a 9/2 chance. Paul Nicholls won this race in the 2006 and 2007 but the decision of top jockey Ruby Walsh probably tells a story.

From a betting perspective I’m not really sure what we can say about the Queen Mother Champion Chase with last years winner Master Minded looking a good thing at 2/7 with totesport. Having said that as long as there are obstacles in the way then there’s a potential for a slip up, as proved in the Melling Chase at Aintree last April when he blundered badly at the second last giving victory to Voy Por Ustedes. He’s won on his two appearances this season including a dominant performance in the Tingle Creek. He’s beaten most of the opposition and with the aforementioned Voy Por Ustedes contesting the Ryanair Chase instead and Tidal Bay a confirmed non runner it’s difficult to find a horse to beat him if he jumps. With this in mind and at that price it’s worth looking for an each-way shot or backing a horse in the ‘without Master Minded’ market with totesport. Well Chief in his prime could arguably give the 6yo a race but with so many injury troubles and lack of race time to his name you’d be backing him blind at 12/1. Big Zeb is the favourite in the ‘without Master Minded’ market at 9/4. It’s very difficult to see past master Minded dominating this race for years to come.

We’ll be putting up some more horses to follow on the day of the race so be sure to check back then.
