Cheltenham 1.15

Cheltenham 1.15 10 Lip Service @8/1 / 9 Actual Frontier @ 14/1 / 6 Rebel Yeates @ 16/1/
15 Cottesrock @ 40/1 (WH/BV) - all odds generally available / specified as at 7.30am Sunday morning

(SkyBet odds to 6th! / Lads/B365/Coral/PP go odds to 5th - we will settle to 5th - 1/4 point each way ALL horses)

This race will turn out much differently than many anticipated I am sure due to the Going, with Skybet offering
places to 6th and Ladbrokes; B365; Coral and Paddy Power to 5th, we will look for value with those proven in conditions;
I have also tended to ignore ex Flat types who will hate the ground and looked for some valuable Point 2 Point form.
LIP SERVICE comes from a yard on fire with good mud form in Ireland and if they have him ready on stable debut has
to have a good chance. ANOTHER FRONTIER comes from the adjoining stable; just over the hill and is another with proven
stamina, won 3 miles on soft and has a nice handicap mark. REBEL YEATES is seen by some who have only looked at
Rules form to be unlikely to get the trip, a delve back far enough indicates it has been a runner up in a 3 mile Point 2 Point
and has P2P form on heavy Going!!!; the price may not reflect that ("hidden fact). I toyed with Maguires Glen whose form
on heavy reads 1-1-3 and if Samson had not run of Friday would be of interest as is Bye Bye O Bye; but I can't leave out
COTTESROCK still 40/1 with 3-4 big firms but being nibbled at and if you look at this Hurdles mark and 3 miles P2P form;
looks way over-priced at 40/1 so grab it!; another from a local yard likely to target the meeting.
