Cheltenham Day One Tuesday

With over 110 runners the need for study is paramount, winds is freshening and rain is gathering. Is life not just brilliant!

Kempes is the best bet in the first race, quality ex flat horse who likes cut travels well and jumps well he is my main fancy. Michael Flips has the dreadful Mr Grant on board he is a quality horse but jockey puts me off. The negative vibes around Cousin Vinny , the over rated form of Torphican and the links to Dee EE Williams formlines gives Shoreacres a good chance of running in the first six.

The Arkle is full of runners with no real standout, I think the best of the Irish is Golden Silver with Kalahri King the best of the English.

The classy Star De Mohaison is the bet in race three, ground dependant - soft would put me off.

Quivega and Binocular will be strong fancies for many with plenty of rain old Brave Inca will be near the frame in the champion with Punjabi going closs to the three as well.
