  Syndicate Captain Cheltmental returns with his preview of Wednesday’s £5,000 Best Dividend Guaranteed Place 6 pool at Cheltenham. Like his selections? Then why not join his Syndicate.   14:05 – Novices’ Hurdle (Class 2) (4yo+) Ask Dillon probably won’t line up here but he’s a horse I like and he would have a chance if they don’t go too fast early.

  Boosted £10,000 Cheltenham preview – Trials Day

  Join Cheltmental’s Place 6 Syndicate here. 18+ 12:40 – JCB TRIUMPH TRIAL JUVENILE HURDLE (GRADE 2) (REGISTERED AS THE FINESSE) ADJALI is a horse I expected to be among the top ranks in this division but giving weight away to whole field adds to his task but I wouldn’t still suggest he’s the one to beat.

  Chepstow Preview – Boosted £10,000 Place 6

  Join Cheltmental’s Place 6 Syndicate here. 18+ 13:05 – HANDICAP CHASE – 5yo+, Class4, 2m 7f Good sized handicap race to get things under but with 17 runners I’m conscious we could lose our first 4 places with a couple of non-runners.

  View Cheltmental’s Syndicates here. 18+ 12:10 Novices’ Hurdle 2m1f Small field but that is typical of this particular renewal and while ELIXIR DE NUTZ has to give 10lbs to the entire field he looks a very useful sort and I’m certain he can beat a few of these under that penalty.
