Any fancies tomorrow at Cheltenham lads?
I like an e/w one.

1:15 - Whatsupwithyou - Weighted to reverse with East India Express, in form yard and I am a sucker for a 10lb claimer who has had a promising start to their career.

2:25 - Zaochen Enki - Like I say, claiming jockeys. 20% strike rate over hurdles, 2/4 for Nicholls and gets 8lb. Horse is unexposed and would expect to be able to win off a mark of just 115.

3:35 - Traprain Law - Creditable 7th in Grand Annual off 2lb higher. Had a nice prep which should put him spot on for this.

4:45 - Awaythelad - Easy one, back Gina Andrews blind around Cheltenham over the larger obstacles. Always gets a tune out of her horses which she will need to do after this horse jumped poorly last time. Another for Pauling, the horse has shown ability and is the ideal type for Gina to get into a rhythm.
 
Very boring but Un Sens A La Vie in the 2m Grade 2 hurdle. Backed soon as prices went live as they hinted it straight after his run last week. He looks graded quality and didn’t have a hard race.
