Razor primed for a smooth display – Boylesports Gold Cup day tips‏

A field of 17 go to post in a fiercely competitive renewal of the Boylesports Gold Cup this afternoon at 2.25pm, and as the headline suggests I’m pinning my hopes on local trainer Nigel Twiston-Davies bagging the big handicap chase with improving seven year old Oscar gelding Razor Royale in the hands of Paddy Brennan.

The fashion of his last appearance, in which he hacked up in an 0-140 Amateur Riders’ Handicap Chase at the Paddy Power Meeting, seeing off nearest pursuer The Sawyer by a distance, puts this likeable type in with genuine each way claims.

His work at home has been outstanding since then, and connections are quietly confident this afternoon.

The handicapper whacked him up 11lbs for his November win and rightly so, but that puts him in with a lovely racing weight of 10st 11lb, and with track, trip and ground to suit it’s little surprise Pricewise has found a home for him this morning.

Be quick and nick some 11/1 with any of Boylesports, Coral or Stan James.

According afforded plenty of respect – Friday’s Cheltenham tips

A typically strong pre-Christmas Cheltenham meeting kicks off on Friday with a belting card that just has to be enjoyed. It’s that time of year when ordinarily sane people have a few too many and go bertie, so watch out if you’re heading to the races tomorrow:

After misbehaving in Wolfsburg Lord Culcheth has been deported by the German authorities just in time to make his seasonal debut at Prestbury Park.

All I can say is you’ve got to hope the stewards here don’t take the same dim view of him dismembering a cougar in full view of the locals that saw the Germans decide he’d overstayed his welcome.

Alarmingly his hapless sidekick Borres is also threatening to make the trip south, you’ll be able to spot him as it’s tough to distinguish where he’s a boy or a girl, with an alice band and wavy blonde hair a huge giveaway.
