SportsLens experts give their Cheltenham Friday tips for the opening day of the November Meeting. This Friday, 12 November, sees Prestbury Park takes centre stage as the track’s second most important meeting after the Festival begins. Read all about who our tipsters fancy on this six-race card below… Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle (1:10) A handicap in name only with just 7lb separating the top and bottom weights. Conditionals can use their claims if riding for their own stable. The eye is drawn towards two form horses towards the top of the handicap. An Tailliur has made remarkable progress for Jonjo O’Neill, winning five races on the spin. Many of the horses that the five-year-old Authorized gelding has beaten seem to come out and win themselves. An Tailliur is 11/2 with Willia...
The Grade 2 Shloer Chase over 2m is the feature race on the third and final day of Cheltenham’s November Meeting on Sunday, 14 November (2:20). Four previous course and distance winners should run in this year’s renewal, so it promises to be a cracker. See who SportsLens experts fancy in this detailed race preview. All bar one of the six initial entries haven’t had a run but that’s no problem. Nine of the 12 past Shloer Chase winners landed the spoils on their reappearance. Eight successful horses since the race was introduced in 2009 have aged six, seven or eight. This event is for equine athletes in their prime, then. Favourites have a 50 per cent success rate in the Shloer Chase at Cheltenham, so backing the market leader on horse racing betting sites could be the way to go. Nine of the...
The 2m Unibet Morgiana Hurdle is the first Grade 1 over the smaller obstacles of the jumps season in Ireland at Punchestown on Sunday, 14 November (2:05). It’s a race that master trainer Willie Mullins boasts a phenomenal record in. Nine of the last 10 Morgiana Hurdle winners came from his Closutton stables. Half of the last dozen victors were favourites too, so siding with the market leader has its upside here. Eight of the previous 12 winners landed the spoils on reappearance. Only the top 2m hurdlers in Ireland are usually good enough to win this. All of the last 12 successful horses had an official rating of 155 or higher. That rules out a few of the runners from the penultimate declaration stage, but if only it was as simple as that… Why Echoes In Rain has the shortest Morgiana Hurdle...

The 1m 4f November Handicap at Doncaster brings the curtain down on the British Flat turf horse racing season. It’s one of the big betting races on Saturday, 6 November this year (2:40). A typically wide-open renewal of the middle-distance handicap, sponsored by Virgin Bet, sees many in with chances. What do November Handicap trends reveal about the race, then? Six of the last seven victors had an official rating of 95 and above, so that metric eliminates half the field. Favourites have a poor recent record, but the last seven November Handicap winners were all returned on horse racing betting sites at prices of 10/1 or shorter. Punters need a prominent contender, then. Horses of different ages have delivered in this down the years, so profiling on that front is difficult. One of the key N...

The Grand Sefton Chase moves to a November slot and is now the first race of the jumps season over Aintree’s famous Grand National fences. More attention is now on the 2m 5f handicap and a field of 14 horses, whose connections have big ambitions. The race takes place on Saturday, 6 November (2:15). As with any event on this unique course, there are some Grand Sefton Chase trends for punters to note. Firstly, both a prior run in the campaign and previous experience of the fences are important. All of the last eight winners were race-fit. Six of the last seven successful horses had been on the Grand National course before. There is also an age profile for the Grand Sefton Handicap Chase to bear in mind. Only two horses younger than eight have ever won the contest. Five of the last ten victor...
The Grade 2 Elite Hurdle over an extended 1m 7f is the feature race at Wincanton on Saturday, 6 November (3:35). It is a pity that only seven runners go for this contest as that reduces each way terms, but there are some classy types entered. Three favourites in the Elite Hurdle betting have wins in the last five years, so respect the market leader. Over an eight-year period, there is a 50-50 split for successful horses either coming here off a run or landing the spoils on reappearance. Paul Nicholls has a record seven wins in the race but none after 2015. This used to be a handicap but the cream usually rises to the top in the Elite Hurdle. Six of the last eight winners had an official rating of 149 or higher. Daryl Jacob has been the jockey to follow with five victories in the last decad...
