Hi Reader

We are into March and start off the month with some cracking races at Kelso, Newbury and Doncaster.

I'm taking aim the Greatwood Gold Cup at Newbury with 16 declared for the premier handicap chase.

Fingers crossed we hit the back of the net with only one more weekend before the Cheltenham Festival!

Ok, let's crack on with today's preview and tips.

Billy the real deal in Greatwood Gold Cup

Back this fluent jumping novice chaser to progress in the Betvictor Greatwood Gold Cup.

Billytherealbigred ran a cracker to finish second behind Jagwar at the Cheltenham trials day meeting. That was in a novice handicap chase over 2m4.5f on the new course. He jumped well that day and stayed the trip strongly. The handicapper has upped him 3lbs which is negated by the booking of 3lb claimer, Toby Wynne.

It’s an open handicap but I like that his novice has lots of upside on only his fourth run over fences. He loves soft ground which is a positive and Newbury is a proper jumping test which hopefully he will enjoy and place pressure on the oppositions jumping. He jumps to his left so Newbury is fine and off a low weight of 10-5 he should be competitive in this valuable premier handicap chase.

Newbury 3:45

0.5 point each way Billytherealbigred 9/2 Paddy Power & Betfair SB else 4/1 Bet365, Skybet, Betvictor & Unibet, all paying 5 places.

Best of Luck,

Nicky
