Sky bet offering 35/1 - Faugheen Champion Hurdle, Sprinter Sacre Champion Chase, Silvniaco Conti Gold Cup I've had a score on that looks like SS is the dodgiest one after losing on his reappearance to Dodging Bullets but it was his first run after a long time off and Barry Geraghty didn't exactly give him a good go at the end I think the run would of done him the world of good and he will certainly improve for Cheltenham.
The first day at Cheltenham could be great for Willie Mullins and Ireland, he trains the favourite in 5 out of 7 races. Un De Sceux looked frighteningly good yesterday when dispatching 2 of his main rivals for the Arkle comfortably and rightly went odds-on, Annie Power should have no problem in the Mares as long as she is fit considering she has not run this season but Quevega was very lightly raced and she won mares 6 times! Douvan looks good for the Supreme but L'ami Serge I am wary of. Faugheen I do fancy strongly but there is a lot of competition in the Champion Hurdle, Hurricane Fly has already beaten last years CH winner Jezki 3 times this season and if Faugheen was not present I would have no issue backing him but as Hurricane Fly and Faugheen are from the same yard Ruby will have pick of the 2 to ride and it looks like he is going to pick Faugheen and he wouldn't pick the horse he thought wouldn't win now would he?
I am very much a Willie Mullins fan and cashed in well last year with Vautour and Faugheen but then went on to lose on Annie Power. I was around £150 up last year going in to the final day ended up totally evens after spreading £50 around and having £100 on Bobs Worth, hopefully this year and I can get up and have a good last day. If Silviniaco Conti comes in for the Gold Cup on the Friday I should be doing well
