Cleeve Racing Cheltenham Festival Report Cleeve Racing Cheltenham Festival report Copyright of Cleeve Racing Limited 2016 1 Cleeve Racing Cheltenham Festival report Introduction A very warm welcome to the Cleeve Racing’s 2016 Cheltenham Yankee… we hope it provides you with plenty of excitement and a great return on any investment you make! Every season we have tilt at winning a big pot for a very small outlay, last season we got close with Cole Harden winning at 33/1… Arctic Fire came second in the Champion Hurdle and although we gave Coneygree at 33/1 for the Gold Cup antepost, unfortunately we didn’t put him in the Yankee…. still we got back double what we invested and can’t complain. This year we have placed our Cheltenham Yankee and we think every selection has a great chance of at least placing and if the all win… well the return to a £1 perm is a massive £15,390.25. Every year we get a few emails from people wanting to know what a Yankee is so before we look at the selections here’s a brief description of what a Yankee is for those who don’t know... A Yankee consists of 4 selections (a, b, c and d) taking part in different events, that are permed to produce 11 bets, comprising… 1 x Accumulator - a x b x c x d 4 x trebles - a x b x c, a x b x d, b x c x d and a x c x d 6 x doubles - a x b, a x c, a x d, b x c, b x d and c x d. You may choose to place a Lucky 15 that includes 4 singles ie. 15 bets but has a return with a single winner. The total stake for the bet is the multiple of the stake for each perm… so a 50p yankee is 11 x 0.50p = £5.50, a 50p ew yankee is 11 x 0.50p ew = £11.00. N.B. We are advising this as an each way Yankee. Copyright of Cleeve Racing Limited 2016 2 Cleeve Racing Cheltenham Festival report Now on to the selections analysis…. For each selection we have given our top rated horses for the race based on our unique algorithm and then our in depth analysis of why we have chosen the particular selection. Selection 1 Tuesday 15th March 2016 - Sky Bet Supreme Novices´ Hurdle (Grade 1 Class 3) (4yo+) Selection: Altior @ 5/1 general My ratings are as follows: 1. Altior 2. Buveur d’Air 3. Min 4. Moon Racer The opening race of the festival and I can almost hear the deafening roar and shouts of “dere dey go!” as the tapes go up on four days of the very best jump racing in the world gets underway. Will this be another Willie Mullins’ masterclass as it has been in the last two years’ a la Vautour and Douvan with the stables hot pot this year being Min who is a very, very short priced favourite (saying that Cleeve’s NH Ten to Follow flagged him up at the start of the season at a tasty 33/1). The burning question is…. is Min a worthy favourite? His position at the head of the market (7/4 biggest, only evens with BetVictor) is all about his potential and what he has shown at home, combined with the record of connections in the race and bookmakers running scared of massive antepost liabilities as a result of multiples placed Mullins hotpots. He is no value based on track form although has been impressive in two runs this season winning both with ease; however with the exception of Gurteen who won Copyright of Cleeve Racing Limited 2016 3 Cleeve Racing Cheltenham Festival report a decent race next time out he hasn’t beaten that much and pretty much won as a short priced favourite should do. Yanworth was very impressive last time out at Cheltenham, but he looks certain to dodge Min in favour of a crack at the Neptune and I think that is the right choice as he looks like he will improve for the longer trip. Moon Racer, last years’ Champion Bumper winner has not been seen this season and it is difficult to win the Supreme on hurdling debut. Unless David Pipe can fit a run in in the next couple of weeks we might not see Moon Racer at Cheltenham, which is a shame as he is potentially top class. Nicky Henderson has two of the leading fancies here Buveur d’Air and Altior. Buveur d’Air who was backward last year won impressively first time up at Newbury and also won at Huntingdon, which has traditionally proven a kiss of death come Cheltenham (0-101 at the Festival) and this will be a massive, massive step up for him, he’ll do well just to hit the frame and looks poor value. In stark contrast Altior has been very impressive and beat subsequent easy winner Open Eagle by an easy thirteen lengths when last seen running at Kempton on Boxing Day, posting a time a second faster than Faugheen did later in the day! Visually he was mightily impressive after having to be asked a question coming into the straight and looking in trouble. But he found plenty for Nico de Boinville and in the end won hands and heels by an ever increasing margin. A couple of things that will also hold him in good stead here are his slick hurdling and as importantly he has already shown he handles the course when he won here back in November in a Grade 2 Novice Hurdle. His current price gives us the luxury of playing each way just in case Min does happen to be Champion the Wonder Horse in disguise! If he isn’t the biggest danger to Altior it may actually come from what would at first glance appear to be the Mullin’s second string Yorkhill who runs in the colours of Graham and Andrea Wylie. He was a top bumper has run very well and remains unbeaten in 4, he stepped up impressively from his maiden to take the Grade one Tolworth Hurdle although it is worth noting that winners of that race have a very poor record in this. His price (12/1 biggest, 6/1 shortest) reflects Copyright of Cleeve Racing Limited 2016 4 Cleeve Racing Cheltenham Festival report doubts on which race he lines up for but I’m pretty sure he goes here and he won’t be 12/1 on the day for sure! Selection 2 Tuesday 15th March 2016 - The Ultima Handicap Chase (Grade 3 Class 1) (5yo+) 3m1f Selection: The Young Master @ 16/1 general My ratings are as follows: 1. Wakanda 2. The Young Master 3. Annacotty 4. Kings Palace Although we do not have a complete list of entries for this race yet I am only really interested in two runners Wakanda and The Young Master who have been confirmed as definite runners by connections. The tough Wakanda has been a good horse for Cleeve members this season; out battling the opposition and winning twice. That toughness will stand him in good stead here and the only thing that puts me off selecting him ahead of The Young Master is the fact that he has gone up 16 lbs since the start of the season although undoubtedly tough I’m also concerned that he has had some very tough races this season and may not be fresh enough to win at the Festival. The favourite in the current market is Minella Foru, trained by Edward Harty and he won nicely at Leopardstown at Christmas on terrible ground. As a result he has gone up 12 lbs and I think that coupled with the Cheltenham hill may just find him out in the final stages. His jumping can also be a bit iffy which is not what you need in a tough big field handicap with the race run at Festival pace as it will definitely expose any weaknesses. Copyright of Cleeve Racing Limited 2016 5 Cleeve Racing Cheltenham Festival report The Young Master was one of the successes of last season winning 8 races on the spin and improving almost 50 lbs in the process. He ran in the Grade One RSA last year going off a well fancied second favourite, but the occasion seemed to get to him and he went off far too fast… eventually finishing tailed off behind Don Poli. However he is a more mature horse now so should handle all the razzmatazz with more aplomb, and it was good to see Neil Mulholland run him in the Cleeve Hurdle as a final prep for this to protect his chase mark. Neil Mulholland has already won this race with The Druid’s Nephew and curiously he also ran in the Cleeve Hurdle prior to winning at the Festival. I rate Mulholland highly as a trainer and he will be at the top of the tree before long as he seems to get the best out of his horses and knows how to get them to peak. I definitely see The Young Master as a graded chaser in a handicap, and last years experience is to his advantage. I am hoping that Barry Geraghty is booked to ride him on the day as he has a great record on the horse with 3/3 wins and with 4 places and a quarter odds 16/1 looks great value.

  • Bulletin Book Extracts
    Bulletin Book Extracts Continuity with the Dark Horses Annual … In my Dark Horses Guide I made out a case for Nichols Canyon, now the winner of seven of his 10 starts over hurdles. A genuine and classy performer for John Gosden on the Flat, with two Listed victories and a Group 3 placing to his name, he landed four Grade 1 races as a novice last season without getting the credit he deserved. This season he became the first horse to beat Faugheen, where the close proximity of Wicklow Brave in third suggests the favourite underperformed, before winning his sixth Grade 1 race when beating Identity Thief in the Ryanair Hurdle at Leopardstown over Christmas. Nichols Canyon ran the worst race of his career just under a month later when he trailed home 28 lengths third to Faugheen and Arctic Fire in the Irish Champion Hurdle, possibly feeling the effects of his tussle with Identity Thief in the heavy ground. Nichols Canyon’s greatest asset is his tenacity. He is not the sort of horse ever to win on the bridle, but he handles any ground and has strong winning form over two and a half miles – always an asset in the Champion Hurdle. Willie Mullins says the horse reminds him of Hurricane Fly – a great compliment - and there is a case for saying he has the best overall form in the race, even though the ratings suggest otherwise. Strong Opinions … I have no doubt that My Tent Or Yours is one of the most talented horses Nicky Henderson has ever trained.

Though the sale has had its fair share of marquee results down the years, including G1 Hong Kong Mile winner The Duke (Aus) (Danehill) (HK$1.6 million purchase) and world champion and treble Hong Kong Mile hero Good Ba Ba (Lear Fan) (HK$1.7 million), >TDN Rising Star= Pakistan Star (Ger) (Shamardal) could take the event to new heights this weekend.

  • Welcome to the April 2015 Edition of the Donn Mcclean Racing Newsletter
    Welcome to the April 2015 edition of the Donn McClean Racing newsletter. Looking ahead It’s all about the Aintree Grand National now. Final declarations were made this morning, and all 40 runners stood their ground. We're all set. There is usually a story behind every Grand National winner, behind every Grand National contender, but there could be no better story this year than the one that victory for Shutthefrontdoor and AP McCoy would tell. The champ, riding in his last Grand National, in what would be his last race if he happened to win it. That would be the story of stories. Of course, there are other stories lurking. Like the Pineau De Re story, bidding to become the first back-to-back winner since Red Rum. Or the Lord Windermere or Spring Heeled story, both trying to win for Jim Culloty the trainer, 13 years after Bindaree won for Jim Culloty the rider. Or the First Lieutenant story, Mouse Morris' horse set to be ridden by Nina Carberry. Never before has a female rider won the Grand National. Well, Katie Walsh won the Irish National on Monday, so why not? Here are five things that you might keep in mind as you are searching for the Grand National winner: No seven-year-old has won the National since Bogskar in 1940, and none has finished placed in the race since 1971. That makes it difficult for Cause Of Causes and Unioniste. Bindaree in 2002 is the last eight-year-old to win it, and he was only the third eight-year-old since Red Rum won his first in 1973.

  • Cheltenham Festival Issue 7
    Gold Cup Preview GOLD CUP PREVIEW Plenty of comparisons have already been made between Arkle and Best Mate, and they’re bound to become even more popular should the best staying chaser of the present day complete a hat-trick of Cheltenham Gold Cup victories in mid-March. Just for the record, the following paragraph from Chasers & Hurdlers 2002/3 may help to put into perspective just how good Arkle really was:- ‘In the 1965/6 season, Arkle ran four times before his third Cheltenham Gold Cup victory, starting off with a twenty-length win under 12-7 in the Gallaher Gold Cup at Sandown in November, setting a time record which still stands for the course and distance. Later that month, Arkle took his second successive Hennessy under 12-7, winning by fifteen lengths from Freddie who received 32 lb. Arkle made it three wins from three starts with victory by a distance in the King George VI Chase before again winning the Leopardstown Chase on his way to Cheltenham. Arkle conceded 42 lb to the second and third at Leopardstown; runner-up Height o’ Fashion, who went down by a neck, did most of her racing in Ireland but was worth a Timeform rating of 168+ whilst third-placed Splash, beaten a further fifteen lengths, had won the previous year’s Irish Grand National and earnt a Timeform rating of 157. Arkle gave them a 43 lb and 55 lb beating respectively and was 10/1-on when making it five out of five for the season when taking Best Mate jumps the second last in splendid isolation twelve month ago 1 Cheltenham Festival Issue the Gold Cup in a canter.
