Cleeve Racing antepost tip – Saturday 23rd November
Hi there, We have an early selection for the weekend’s racing at Haydock, the current odds and place terms are attractive and even though there are 21 still declared it doesn’t look a very deep contest, I also expect a lot of them to come out. The weather forecast is reasonably fair for the rest…

Hi everyone, another disappointing day yesterday. Of the 4 selections, both the first two Minella Warrior and Big River were very poor in the jumping department and were pulled up. Big River especially didn’t look like he was fully fit after his wind operation and long lay off. Slate House was held up but didn’t…

Hi there, Well, Southern Sam ran a decent race for us on Wednesday and we have every reason to think he will improve for this run so we’ll be keeping a very close eye on him. We have another eyecatcher running tomorrow at Fontwell Park over a marathon distance on soft ground. The trainer has…

Hi everyone, a pretty quiet week so far, especially with Cheltenham called off today. Hats off to Clerk of the Course Simon Claisse and his staff at Cheltenham to make sure tomorrow and Sunday go ahead. We have a relatively busy day with 4 selections and let’s hope we can get our season back on…

Hi everyone, our pain continues with our only selection today Classic Ben only managing the dreaded 4th place for an each-way bet. He was backed heavily all day into 10/3f so we weren’t the only ones thinking he had a very decent chance. He ran and jumped OK apart from getting a bit close into…

Hi there, we have another antepost pick today, this time for Cheltenham’s Open Meeting that starts on Friday and it runs in the Glenfarclas Cross Country Chase. This race is always a great spectacle at the home of national hunt racing and we have what we think is a solid each-way pick for the race.…

Hi everyone, we had just the one selection yesterday in Organdi. He was disappointing but he was going OK until he encountered the much softer ground on the inside rail and he obviously struggled and went back through the field. He ran on again in the straight on the better ground but the winner Fleur…

Hi there, nothing to report on from a selections point of view… In the first of the two races we gave the ratings for, those of you who are odds on backers you survived a major scare in Santini who only just got up by a head after a lacklustre performance. Nicky Henderson said he…

Hi everyone, we ended up with just one selection and the ante-post yesterday as Organdi was a non-runner. The selection Oldgrangewood who was backed into 4/1 cf ran OK. Harry Skelton held him up and he made headway from 4 out to go third but he couldn’t make any impression on the leaders and just…

Hi everyone, our only selection this week Canyon City ran OK and hit the front two out but I think Bryony Frost may have gone a bit too early on him and he was headed by the last and just didn’t stay on the relatively long run in at Newbury and trailed in 6th. We…
