Good morning everyone, we had two selections yesterday and here are my thoughts. Fanion D’Estruval raced prominently in behind the leader, he took it up 3 out and never looked like being beaten after that. Paisley Park I thought turning for home was going very well but he found nothing from around 2 out and…

Good Morning everybody, Kenzai Warrior who was well backed and ended up not a selection missed the break and ran mid division. We move on and have two selections from Newbury today. Today’s ratings are on the button… Good luck The team at Cleeve

Good morning everybody, we had three selections on Saturday and here is my review. Our Surprise did not seem to settle in the first time hood. He raced in mid division but was outpaced 2 out before staying on after the last for 3rd place. If The Cap Fits led or disputed the lead for…

Good Morning everybody, we had two selections yesterday and here are my thoughts. Smarty Wild really did peck on landing at the very first fence, he seemed to lack confidence at his fences after that and it was a poor round of jumping. He did run on to finish 3rd. If he is to progress…

Good morning everybody, we had 2 selections on Saturday and here are my thoughts. Al Dancer raced in midfield and made a few poor jumps which come the business end of the race took its toll and he quickly weakened out of it… the trainer said afterwards that the horse was never travelling. Good Effort…

Good morning everybody, we had one selection on Friday and here is a short review. Magic Saint was held up in mid division and  was hard ridden 2 out, he ran on at one pace and was never really dangerous. Magic Saint looked a shadow of the horse that won this last season and will…

Good morning everybody, we had one selection on Tuesday and here is a short review. Ajero was held up behind the pace and he was out paced 3 out before running on, but made no real impression on the placed horses after 2 out… for me, Ajero who had dropped 2 grades disappointed here. We…

Hi there, We do feel that it has got a bit much that ‘all roads lead to Cheltenham’, and has got to the point where it is to the detriment of the rest of the Jumps season which plenty of other fine meetings. Every winner seems to be greeted with a shortened quote for a…
