Kevin Blake Cheltenham Tips On Friday 17th March 2023
GALA MARCEAU in the 1:30 Triumph Hurdle @ 10/3
It will be a shock if Wille Mullins is not winning this day four opener with the main three in the betting. Most are siding with Lossiemouth and Blood Destiny, but Kevin Blake isn’t. He feels Gala Marceau can uphold the Spring Juvenille form at Leopardstown, where she beat Lossiemouth by just over 2 lengths. Many thought the runner-up was unlucky but Kevin Blake isn’t so sure.
Blake told his Betfair blog “There is no doubt that Lossiemouth suffered a range of interference and was unquestionably better than the bare result suggests, but it shouldn’t be overlooked just how well Gala Marceau won the race.
She pulled notably hard, but jumped slickly and travelled powerfully to the front at the second-last flight before putting the race away without too much fuss. For all the trouble that Lossiemouth met, she never seriously threatened to catch Gala Marceau.”
PIPED PIPER in the 2:10 County Hurdle @ 14/1
The County Hurdle is an open affair as always and you could easily make a case for many. However, Blake is siding with the classy Pied Piper from the Gordon Elliott team. This horse will have his fair share of weight (11-13), but that’s because barring Sharjah he’s the best horse in the contest.
He’s won 50% of his 8 starts over hurdles and ran a blinder to be only 6 1/2 lengths off State Man last time in the Irish Champion Hurdle.
Blake tol his Betfair followers “He got back on track with a very good run in the face of a tough task in the Irish Champion Hurdle and that run might well put him spot on for this.
While he has a lot of weight to carry, the main appeal with him is that he has always appealed as being one that will thrive in a strongly-run race with plenty of cover available to him, a scenario that he has yet to meet.
The rain that has arrived will hold no fears for him and with Davy Russell‘s riding style being ideal for this type of race, he is selected to run a big race.”
