Horses of interest today Cheltenham 

1.35 Afadil / Glorious Zoff 10/3 and 12/1

3.55 Lookaway/ Enthused  11/2 and 20/1

4.30 Strictlyadancer/ Bells Of Peterboro 11/2 and 17/2

5.05 Angels Breath 11/2

One winner Lookaway and I thought Bells Of Peterboro was unlucky leading with that bad mistake at the last which cost him his chance. Strictly is a horse to watch for Christian Williams staying on for 4th in same race, he’s being primed for a big handicap over staying distances . Angels Breath drifting out to 10/1 finishing second and is another who could pop up after a long layoff just.

Yes. I seen that Ruge. Very unlucky.

The others you mention have also been noted for the future.

Railway Hurricane wiped out at the starting post in his race too.. finished 2nd in the end.

But as we know.. That's racing.

Onto tomorrow we go!

Highland Hunter just failed after being off for best part of two years .Be interesting to see where they go with him but should be 100% primed wherever he goes

Very unlucky there pal. He's another to keep an eye on.

Corach Rambler is no gold cup horse which I think a few of us knew anyway. The race didn’t suit today no pace and first time out he isn’t usually fully ready to go but he’d get taken off his feet in a gold cup even though he likes pace to aim at. Fair play if they go that route but I’d target other big staying races like the Eider at Newcastle before he goes for the national again .
