Tuesday 16th 1.20 Supreme Novices' Hurdle (Grade 1) 4yo+ 2m½f SLH: Metier, Soaring Eagle and at big odds Grumpy Charlie are the pick of the British trained horses. Metier was a decent performer on the flat in Ireland and has progressed from race to race over hurdles since moving to Harry Fry. He is a strong stayer who performs well on soft ground. It is taken as fact that the course will be prepared to ride no firmer than Good to Soft on the opening day. Soaring Glory showed marked improvement when impressively winning the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury. He appears to be less dependent on ground conditions than Metier and looks sure to figure. On soft ground Grumpy Charlie could run better than his odds suggest if allowed to take his chance. Despite not being totally straightforward, he is improving with racing experience. DMC: At the start of the season, it looked like Appreciate It was going to be Willie Mullins’ Ballymore Hurdle horse, and that Ferny Hollow was going to be his Supreme Novices’ Hurdle horse.

  • Cleeve-Racing-Cheltenham-Yankee-2021.Pdf
    Introduction Cheltenham with empty stands… it's going to feel a bit bizarre but with the Irish set to come it's still going to be top class action and arguably racing has never had more importance than it has at the moment. Here at Cleeve we always put out an EW Yankee at this time of year. We see it mainly as a bit of fun that adds interest to the week as a whole. However we've used all of our expertise and put in as much time analysing the races in question, and should all the selections win (yes, we know it's a big 'if'!), while we wouldn't say that £79K is a life-changing amount of money… it certainly helps to keep the wolf from the door! Win, lose or draw 2021 was the year that we hope marked the bottom of the curve and that next year's Festival sees packed stands again and we hear the traditional 'roar' when the tapes go up on the Supreme Hurdle. Copyright Cleeve Racing 2021 Page 1 Tuesday 16th March Champion Hurdle Selection: Abacadabras Age: 7 Trainer: Gordon Elliott Owner: Gigginstown House Stud Best odds: 12/1 The top few in the market here; Epatante, Sharjah and Silver Streak look too short in the betting. Epatante disappointed behind Silver Streak last time but that was down to a canny ride on the winner. Sharjah is interesting if he can replicate his Leopardstown form here. He was second behind Epatante in this last year but the 7lbs mare's allowance for Epatante is likely to make the difference again.
