connections were bullish about their new superstar and I can’t help keep thinking back to the exeptionally glowing comments made about this horse by the owner at the Punchestown Festival last May. With doubts over Altior (will he run? Is he still the horse he was?) and in my mind Defi Du Sueil still having an awful lot to prove at grade one level, I think Chacun is the worthy and most likely winner. Get on now!


THESTAYERS HURDLE


PaisleyPark looks bomb-proof but represents no value at even money. Similarly a lot of the horses at the top of the betting have questions over their participation, ability and quality. But one that has most of the boxes ticked is IF THE CAP FITS at a each-way steal of 7/1.


THERYANAIR CHASE


With so many doubts over which engagement various horses go to, betting in the Ryanair is fraught with danger. But again with NRNB, we can go for a punt. Ideally the 2.5 mile distance is a speciality distance and one which few horses excel at. One I believe can excel if he lines up is LALOR at a whopping 25/1. Definitely worth a nibble.


Away from Cheltenham and away from March let’s look at bets in February.


The Champions League returns with the round of 16 during this month and now it gets down to the nitty gritty. I always like to have an accumulator on the eight ties and my choices to qualify are… Liverpool 3/10 PSG 1/4


Valencia 4/5


Tottenham Even Money Bayern Munich 1/4 Barcelona 1/5 Juventus 1/10 Manchester City 4/9


A £10 ACCUMULATOR PAYS £139.42 ON BET365, A SHADE UNDER 13/1.


As to the Champions League itself, as I have said on numerous occasions over the autumn, it really doesn’t get underway until mid-February and looking at the prices prior to the round of 16 I still think that PSG at 7/1 represents value despite their european self- destruct button. Readers should take note of January’s issue with my views on Spurs.


Chacun Pour Soi 6/1 Sharjah 10/1 Lalor 25/1


Lostintranslation 7/1 If The Cap Fits 7/1 5 x £5 Win Singles 10 x £3 Win Doubles £1 x WinCanadian


Finally, after the PDC World Darts at the Ally Pally in Decemer the premier league returns in earlyFebruary and I think a small interest should be tak- en on the bad man of darts GERWYN PRICE for both regular season winner at 15/2 and GrandFinal winner at 6/1. The field looks particularly weak this year and I think it’s between MightyMike and the Ice- man for top honours.
