It was getting too hard to split the preview night tips into a single thread so I am going to have a go at tidying it up into individual days with a post for each race. The idea is still to have a quick reference collecting tips, naps and charity bets from the usual tipsters and Cheltenham Preview circuit for those lazy (or sensible) folk that arent bothered reading through pages of reports.

Supreme Novice Hurdle 2014 Tips

Pricewise has tipped Gilgamboa at the last few nights -still 12/1 at time of this post with Paddy Power Offer below

Ruby Walsh is confident that his horse Vautour can win.

Paul Nicholls has been bullish about the favourite Irving.

Pricewise was originally on Our Conor but now favours Hurricane Fly narrowly over My tent or Yours

Barry Geraghty thinks his horse Jezki is the each way value but that the fly is the one to beat.


Bizzarrely Nicky Henderson put up Our Conor as his Charity Bet at Adare Preview Night


John Francombe and Jim McGrath tipped Melodic Rendezvous at the Waterford Preview Night.

Who beats Quevega ?
 
Russell tipped TNO in the RP today :)

I am heading Cheltenham direction later this morning so will probably not be on here much this week.

Good luck to you all.

My final thoughts on day 1

Supreme

Not convinced by Irving & think the Mullins horses offer poor value in comparison to the Henderson pair. The support of Vaniteux has to be significant. Henderson has had enough good hurdlers through the yard to know one when he sees it. ( Yea I know he has hit the cross bar lately)

Arkle

Wonder if Rock on Ruby and Champagne Fever might cut one anothers throats ? Also record of front runners in the Arkle is brutal. Id be all over Trifolium but there were some whispers ( never know whether to believe from that yard) of some kind of setback after the Irish Arkle. Dodging Bullets had a hard race last time and his form has tailed off in other seasons. At the prices I might end up backing Grandouet ...if Nicholls think Hinterland has a real chance in the Champion Chase then the Henry VII form is the one to be with. Good ground also improves chances.

Festival Handicap

Ill be looking at weights and backing something in bottom two or three.

Champion Hurdle

Just talking myself around in circles on this. OC might not yet have peaked and TNO's jumping freaks me out for all that he has profile of the winner. Maybe a case of throwing a blanket over the lot...thought Melodic offered a bit of value earlier but ground surely gone for him. Remember reading Pat Keane of examiner saying he wouldnt back Hurricane Fly again after watching last years race but like him and many more getting sucked in that direction. For all that think he will hit a bigger price IR than SP and will probably set up a back to lay on MTOY hopefully winning but taking back my stake if not collecting. Fully expect him to trade odds on at some stage.

Mares

Same 1-2 as last time.

4 Miler

No value in foxrock now. Will back a Gigginstown runner on the day.


Novice Handicap Chase

Best horse usually wins this so only a handicap in name so will pick something near top of ratings tomorrow.
 
I am on the move today also so Lester will be in charge here this week unless we get another volunteer :)
