Constitution Hill<\/strong> again. Those looking for value Cheltenham Tuesday tips won’t find a tasty bookmaker price available on the Nicky Henderson stable star. It is very hard to get away from the unbeaten under Rules force of nature known as Constitution Hill.<\/p>\nHe’s lightly-raced and hasn’t put a foot wrong over hurdles. There is no obvious reason why old rival State Man<\/strong>, who chased the long odds-on favourite home in the Champion Hurdle 12 months ago, should turn the tables. Willie Mullins stable companion Lossiemouth\u00a0<\/strong>would be interesting if rerouted here from facing fellow mares, but connections indicated she will go up in trip an back against her own sex after her easy International Hurdle victory.<\/p>\nOthers from the yard, namely Impaire Et Passe and Vauban, have been scratched. Zarak The Brave <\/strong>won the Galway Hurdle over the summer and then bounced back to form in the Limestone Lad at Naas in January. This young pretender has plenty to find with the first two in the Champion Hurdle horse racing betting.<\/p>\nClose Brothers Mares’ Hurdle<\/h4>\n It’s far more likely that we will see last year’s Triumph Hurdle heroine\u00a0Lossiemouth\u00a0<\/strong>stepped up in distance for the Grade 1 Mares’ Hurdle over two-and-a-half-mile. Mullins of course has plenty of ammunition for this race, which he’s farmed down the years, so most Cheltenham tips on it are for runners from his Closutton stables. Lossiemouth picked up more experience of the track on Festival Trials Day.<\/p>\nDoncaster Yorkshire Rose winner\u00a0Ashroe Diamond\u00a0<\/strong>is also prominent in the horse racing market offered here but Gala Marceau<\/strong>, who was behind her that day, flopped. Outside of a Mullins quartet completed by Echoes In Rain<\/strong>, the best British mares look to be last year’s runner-up\u00a0Love Envoi <\/strong>for Harry Fry, Nicky Henderson runner Marie’s Rock\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Jamie Snowden representative You Wear It Well<\/strong>.<\/p>\nPunters shouldn’t forget about the Henry De Bromhead stable for the Mares’ Hurdle either. Both\u00a0Magical Zoe<\/strong> and Telmesomethinggirl<\/strong> have unfinished business at Cheltenham. They have been unlucky at past Festivals and the yard won this race twice with the great Honeysuckle.<\/p>\nNational Hunt Chase Challenge Cup<\/h4>\n Who else but Willie Mullins has won the Grade 2 National Hunt Chase for amateur riders and novices over fences four times since 2013, including three of the last six editions.\u00a0Embassy Gardens\u00a0<\/strong>is the favourite for the longest race at the four-day Cheltenham Festival, but the yard also has\u00a0Minella Cocooner<\/strong>,\u00a0Nick Rockett\u00a0<\/strong>and Paddy Power Chase hero Meetingofthewaters <\/strong>prominent in the market.<\/p>\nIf it’s not Mullins that Cheltenham tips for the day 1 finale focus on, then there are Gordon Elliott runners to consider too. His team of possible National Hunt Chase contenders includes\u00a0Salvador Ziggy<\/strong>,\u00a0Three Card Brag\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Favori De Champdou<\/strong>. Elliott has three wins in the race since 2015 and four in total like his great rival in Ireland.<\/p>\nOther trainers in the Emerald Isle have hands to play here, however. Emmet Mullins may saddle\u00a0Corbetts Cross\u00a0<\/strong>out to make amends for crashing out through the wing of the final flight in the Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle at the Festival last year. Gavin Cromwell has dual Stayers’ Hurdle hero\u00a0Flooring Porter\u00a0<\/strong>in the National Hunt Chase too and he has plenty of Cheltenham experience.<\/p>\nLeading British contenders may struggle to get a look-in, meanwhile. Anthony Honeyball has\u00a0Kilbeg King\u00a0<\/strong>as a possible for this race. Scottish trainer Lucinda Russell has given her mare\u00a0Apple Away\u00a0<\/strong>the option of running here too. Local handler Nigel Twiston-Davies has put\u00a0Broadway Boy\u00a0<\/strong>through his paces in Cheltenham handicaps earlier in the season, while\u00a0Stay Away Fay\u00a0<\/strong>could still end up going down this route.<\/p>\n\n
Cheltenham Day 2 Tips – Queen Mother Champion Chase on Style Wednesday<\/h3>\n Now known as Style Wednesday, the second day of the Festival used to be called Ladies Day. Fashion will play a part off the track, while some classy horses compete in a variety of different disciplines and over varied distances. Wednesday Cheltenham tips often focus on the feature race, the two-mile Queen Mother Champion Chase, but there are other even more competitive events on the card. Here are all seven contests:<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/svg> 1:30 – Baring Bingham Novices’ Hurdle<\/li>\n<\/svg> 2:10 – Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase (Registered as the Broadway)<\/li>\n<\/svg> 2:50 – Coral Cup Handicap Hurdle<\/li>\n<\/svg> 3:30 – Betway Queen Mother Champion Chase<\/li>\n<\/svg> 4:10 – Glenfarclas Cross Country Chase<\/li>\n<\/svg> 4:50 – Johnny Henderson Grand Annual Handicap Chase<\/li>\n<\/svg> 5:30 – Weatherbys Champion Bumper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nBaring Bingham Novices’ Hurdle<\/h4>\n Many of the leading contenders for the Grade 1 Baring Bingham Novices’ Hurdle over two miles and five furlongs are prominent in the Supreme betting.\u00a0Ballyburn\u00a0<\/strong>would be a force to be reckoned with if turning up in this race instead of the Festival opener. Similar comments apply to\u00a0Mystical Power\u00a0<\/strong>or Paul Nicholls’ big British buy out of Ireland in Caldwell Potter<\/strong>.<\/p>\nSlade Steel <\/strong>from the Henry De Bromhead yard is one of the Cheltenham Wednesday tips to note after his fine second to Ballyburn at the Dublin Racing Festival. His trainer has indicated that the Robcour runner is swerving a rematch with that one. Other Willie Mullins runners may go down this route including Grade 1 Naas winner\u00a0Readin Tommy Wrong<\/strong>,\u00a0Ile Atlantique\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Billericay Dickie<\/strong>.<\/p>\nClassic Novices’ Hurdle winner\u00a0Gidleigh Park\u00a0<\/strong>could be back at Cheltenham bidding to follow-up on Festival Trials Day success here.\u00a0Handstands\u00a0<\/strong>entered the Baring Bingham picture with a Listed win at Huntingdon, while Newbury’s Grade 1 Challow Hurdle hero\u00a0Captain Teague <\/strong>looks an obvious British contender.<\/p>\nBrown Advisory Novices’ Chase<\/h4>\n Injury to Grangeclare West means a shake-up to the Grade 1 Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase betting. Dublin Racing Festival Grade 1 winner and Champion Bumper second Fact To File\u00a0<\/strong>ran a great trial for this three-mile contest at Leopardstown. That one was runner-up in last season’s Champion Bumper. Stay Away Fay\u00a0<\/strong>landed the Albert Bartlett at the Festival 12 months ago and made a good start to life over fences.<\/p>\nDan and Harry Skelton runner Grey Dawning <\/strong>took the Hampton Novices’ Chase at local track Warwick in style, meanwhile, so the British contingent may feature among Cheltenham tips for Wednesday here. Mullins will have to shuffle his pack, so besides Fact To File, Meetingofthewaters <\/strong>could stay at three miles and tackle this. Something similar may happen with fellow National Hunt Chase entries\u00a0Embassy Gardens<\/strong>,\u00a0Minella Cocooner\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Nick Rockett<\/strong>.<\/p>\nHenry De Bromhead could run\u00a0Monty’s Star\u00a0<\/strong>here too, so there’s still plenty that could change in the staying novice chase division between now and the Festival. Leading Irish owner JP McManus looks like to keep Fact To File and Corbetts Cross apart in different races.<\/p>\nBetway Queen Mother Champion Chase<\/h4>\n After Arkle success 12 months ago,\u00a0El Fabiolo\u00a0<\/strong>is all the rage to win at Cheltenham once again in the two-mile Queen Mother Champion Chase. Mullins’ charge, owned by Simon Munir and Isaac Souede, is unbeaten over fences. Main market rival\u00a0Jonbon\u00a0<\/strong>failed to enhance his own claims when poor jumping cost him victory in the Clarence House, run here on Festival Trials Day rather than Ascot.<\/p>\nMost Cheltenham tips for the day two feature surround these major contenders. What other horses could join them in the frame is less clear.\u00a0Edwardstone\u00a0<\/strong>is a past winner of the Arkle, but also now a veteran aged 10. Like\u00a0Captain Guinness\u00a0<\/strong>for the De Bromhead stable, Alan King’s charge looks vulnerable to younger legs.<\/p>\nBoothill\u00a0<\/strong>may be an alternative for the Harry Fry yard, but is better known for winning valuable handicaps. Joe Tizzard’s\u00a0Elixir De Nutz\u00a0<\/strong>has been better than ever this season winning the Haldon Gold Cup at Exeter and profiting from those mistakes by Jonbon in the Clarence House. It is tough to see him repeating that. Gary Moore has\u00a0Editeur Du Gite<\/strong>, but he’s getting on as well.<\/p>\nGlenfarclas Cross Country Chase<\/h4>\n Irish trainers have a lot of big names targeting the Cross Country race over a variety of obstacles at the Festival. Unlike the handicaps run over the same three-and-three-quarter-mile course earlier in the season at Cheltenham, this is a conditions event. Henry De Bromhead will be looking to win it with former Gold Cup hero\u00a0Minella Indo<\/strong> after saddling Sizing Australia to victory in 2011.<\/p>\nGordon Elliott has five wins in this since 2017. The last two have come courtesy of\u00a0Delta Work<\/strong>, who will have had his entire campaign centred on landing the hat-trick. Other inmates of Cullentra House also owned by Gigginstown House Stud that Cheltenham tips must consider is\u00a0Coko Beach<\/strong>, but also Conflated<\/strong>. The yard also has Ronnie Bartlett’s\u00a0Galvin\u00a0<\/strong>if the going is better underfoot.<\/p>\nBeyond the market principals, and if they all turn up, it’s going to be an incredible race, there are the Cross Country handicap winners in\u00a0Latenightpass\u00a0<\/strong>for Dan and Harry Skelton, and Mouse Morris runner\u00a0Foxy Jacks<\/strong>. Patrick Griffin veteran\u00a0Roi Mage <\/strong>has also won a race of this nature in France this season. The big name which hasn’t taken to the banks is Stattler.<\/p>\nWeatherbys Champion Bumper<\/h4>\n From jumping various obstacles to none at all now with the Weatherbys Champion Bumper serving as the UK championship of National Hunt Flat races. All good racing tips for Cheltenham should focus on the Dublin Racing Festival equivalent of this at Leopardstown. That is now the key trial to follow. With winner Jeroboam Machin out injured, the best of that form is the runner-up\u00a0You Oughta Know<\/strong>.<\/p>\nWillie Mullins also has Punchestown winner\u00a0Maughreen\u00a0<\/strong>and wide-margin Naas scorer\u00a0Jasmin De Vaux\u00a0<\/strong>as leading hopes. Gordon Elliott’s major backers Gigginstown House Stud aren’t fans of the Champion Bumper, yet their Fairyhouse and Leopardstown victor\u00a0Jalon D’Oudairies\u00a0<\/strong>is a threat if sent across the Irish Sea to Cheltenham.\u00a0Romeo Coolio\u00a0<\/strong>represents different owners, however, and may travel.<\/p>\nMares have enjoyed success in this race before too, so besides Maughreen there is also Leopardstown Grade 2 winner\u00a0Fleur Au Fusil\u00a0<\/strong>for tipsters and punters to consider. Expect a glut of Irish horses here with the best of British at 20\/1 and bigger with your favourite bookmakers.<\/p>\n\n
Cheltenham Day 3 Tips – Ryanair Chase & Stayers’ Hurdle on St Patrick’s Thursday<\/h3>\n On the penultimate day of the Festival, fans and punters get two major races for the price of one. St Patrick’s Thursday, which can on occasion even fall on the patron saint of Ireland’s holy day, sees the Ryanair Chase and Stayers’ Hurdle share joint-top billing. Thursday Cheltenham tips must also consider more of those fiendishly tricky handicaps. This is what the entire card looks like:<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/svg> 1:30 – Turners Novices’ Chase (Registered as the Golden Miller)<\/li>\n<\/svg> 2:10 – Pertemps Final Handicap Hurdle<\/li>\n<\/svg> 2:50 – Ryanair Chase (Registered as the Festival Trophy)<\/li>\n<\/svg> 3:30 – Paddy Power Stayers’ Hurdle<\/li>\n<\/svg> 4:10 – Trustatrader Plate Handicap Chase<\/li>\n<\/svg> 4:50 – Dawn Run Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle<\/li>\n<\/svg> 5:30 – Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup Handicap Chase (for Amateur Riders)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nTurners Novices’ Chase<\/h4>\n JP McManus must decide whether to run\u00a0Fact To File\u00a0<\/strong>over further than his finished alone win at Leopardstown in the Brown Advisory or drop him back him in trip for the Turners Novices’ Chase over almost two-and-a-half miles. The leading Irish owner has last season’s Martin Pipe hero\u00a0Iroko\u00a0<\/strong>potentially returning from a setback to come here instead as well.<\/p>\nMany experts point to the course form of Ginny’s Destiny\u00a0<\/strong>among Cheltenham tips for the day 3 opener. At this stage he looks the most likely winner that the trainer-jockey combination of Paul Nicholls and Harry Cobden will have at the Festival. Some horses will inevitably be rerouted from the Arkle to this longer trip.<\/p>\nIn this bracket, look no further than\u00a0Facile Vega\u00a0<\/strong>for Mullins and\u00a0Found A Fifty\u00a0<\/strong>from the Elliott stable. The former trainer is on a recovery mission with\u00a0Gaelic Warrior<\/strong>, who now looks set to go back down in distance if he turns up at Cheltenham at all. Everything depends on how serious whatever problem he picked up at the Dublin Racing Festival is. The French superstar Il Est Francais\u00a0<\/strong>holds an entry, but has long-term targets over further and may not come to the UK again until next season.<\/p>\nRyanair Chase<\/h4>\n The co-feature Ryanair Chase has lost dual winner Allaho to another injury, so he won’t bid to reclaim his crown. Cheveley Park Stud understudy\u00a0Envoi Allen\u00a0<\/strong>landed the spoils in his absence 12 months ago<\/a>, so will be one of the most popular Cheltenham Thursday tips based on his own fine Festival record with three previous wins at the meeting.<\/p>\nHenry De Bromhead’s runner is not the favourite in the horse racing betting on the Ryanair, though. Heading the market is Joseph O’Brien inmate\u00a0Banbridge<\/strong>, who goes very well on going with good in description. Soft ground at Cheltenham would dent his chances and owner Ronnie Bartlett won’t risk him on anything but a sound or yielding surface.<\/p>\nLast year’s Turners winner\u00a0Stage Star\u00a0<\/strong>has a mixed record at the track. On that performance at last year’s Festival, jockey Harry Cobden has a big ride under him but the Paul Nicholls runner has seen his jumping let him down. Stage Star almost came down at the final fence in the Paddy Power Gold Cup but survived, and then flopped in another Premier Handicap on New Year’s Day.<\/p>\nOther leading Irish contenders, meanwhile, include Cotswold Chase scorer Capodanno <\/strong>for Mullins and McManus. He could drop back in, but so might Martin Brassil’s Fastorslow <\/strong> after being put in his place over further by Galopin Des Champs in the Irish Gold Cup. Gordon Elliott has a hand to play here too with\u00a0Conflated<\/strong>, but also potential improver Fil Dor<\/strong>.<\/p>\nPaddy Power Stayers’ Hurdle<\/h4>\n Irish owners Robcour hold a very strong hand in the other open championship hurdle contest at the Festival. Both Irish Point\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Teahupoo<\/strong> are trained by Elliott and the latter placed in the Stayers’ Hurdle last term, but is a stronger horse now. While Teahupoo took the Hatton’s Grace at Fairyhouse, Irish Point landed the Leopardstown Christmas Hurdle. It will be a surprise if either isn’t home in front come the Festival.<\/p>\nTop Cheltenham tips must consider beyond the first two in the betting, though.\u00a0Crambo\u00a0<\/strong>has progressed out of handicaps and won the Grade 1 Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot, beating many of the established British stayers over the festive period. He may give Fergal O’Brien a breakthrough Festival winner, but others from the home team like\u00a0Paisley Park <\/strong>look thoroughly exposed.<\/p>\nNoble Yeats <\/strong>is a classy horse who got up to land the Cleeve Hurdle over course and distance on Trials Day for Emmet Mullins. The Stayers’ Hurdle may just be a stepping stone to another tilt at the Grand National, though.\u00a0Monkfish\u00a0<\/strong>is a previous Albert Bartlett winner whose subsequent career over fences has been wrecked by setbacks. He could come on from his successful reappearance in the Galmoy Hurdle.<\/p>\nMcManus veteran and last year’s winner<\/a> Sire Du Berlais<\/strong> can never be discounted despite being aged 12. He has won three times over the course and distance including this race 12 months ago. Sir Gerhard <\/strong>and Flooring Porter <\/strong>have the Stayers’ Hurdle as options to them among another typically strong Irish challenge.<\/p>\nDawn Run Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle<\/h4>\n After winning the first five editions of the Grade 2 novice hurdle race for mares since it was added to the Cheltenham Festival, Willie Mullins seeks more success with\u00a0Jade De Grugy<\/strong>. She won the Solerina in style at Fairyhouse, which has become a key trial for this extended two-mile test. The yard could also unleash\u00a0Fun Fun Fun\u00a0<\/strong>here, depending on how she fares in Listed company at Exeter against the geldings.<\/p>\nGordon Elliott has an obvious contender in\u00a0Brighterdaysahead<\/strong>, who runs over further in the Apple’s Jade at Navan.\u00a0Dysart Enos\u00a0<\/strong>is the mount of Paddy Brennan and a leading British contender that many experts like for Cheltenham tips on Thursday and the Fergal O’Brien stable. Queens Gamble\u00a0<\/strong>represents up-and-coming trainer Harry Derham here, while\u00a0
