The festival is coming...

Just two weeks until the start of the Cheltenham festival and here are my main ante post selections. The Triumph hurdle has the look of a very classy affair with Zaynar and Walk On two highly talented and progressive four-year-olds. However Starluck is the one for me. The manner of his victories suggest there is plenty more to come and if he was with a top yard I'm sure he would be a lot shorter price. Tatenen could be a good thing for the Arkle. Ignore his run in Ireland there was no pace and he wasn't going an inch. His previous efforts were faultless and the trainer is bullish about his chances. Jonjo O'Neill did me a big favour with Albertas Run last year and Cant Buy Time, from the same yard, can win us money this time around. Anybody who saw the ease with which he won at Sandown cannot possibly oppose this one in the William Hill Trophy.
