Rubi Ball looks a huge price antepost.

 

His Lexus third was his first run over fences since coming over from France and he'd have been closer still if he hadn't missed the last.

 

He'll certainly be a lot shorter if he repeats that showing next time out.

Back to lay, I reckon.

Nah, short-priced 4-timers aren't that bad when you're dealing with quality.

 

It's the random accas that folk put on weekly that fund the bookies.

 

Big Bucks is an iffy one for me, despite his brilliant record. Not run since getting injured, they don't know who's going to ride and Annie Power is a big danger if she run against him.

 

I know the prices will shorten, but I'd be waiting until BB returns on the 25th in the Cleeve.

I would hope the Fly wins, but this is likely to be his toughest assignment yet. Both The New One and My Tent or Yours will be snapping at him and he's getting on a bit now.

 

Cue Card is a good bet for the Ryanair, but still holds a Gold Cup entry, a race he won't win.

If he does run in the Gold Cup, his early pace will ruin Bob's Worth's plans, allowing Silviniaco Conti to take the race.

 

Bob's Worth should beat SC if the race is run his way, but there's no be much in it IMO.

Cue Card heads the 43 runner market at 5/2!

 

Same as BetVictor

 

All Cheltenham races are NRNB at BV as far as I'm aware.
