Andrew nelis this is a puzzle
Well what have we learned from the trials and tactics from this years major contenders, and other stragglers in the Cheltenham champion hurdle.  I think its puzzling in the sense that a few haven't really performed in each side of the Irish sea . Pentland Hills  may need a quicker pace and it will suit in the Adulations of the cotswold track . Now we have  had the withdrawals of both  saldier and klassical dream a horse who won at the festival in the supreme novice and going on to win at the punchestown festival at the end of last season . Watching the race that Honeysuckle  won finishing fast was  Darver star  ( gavin Cromwell ) who's horse Espoir Allen claimed the champion last year . I actually wouldn't put anyone off a EW of  Darver star , also  I'm getting more warmed to the fact of benie des dieux taking her place with the mares allowance.  Take her with willie Mullins knowing what it takes to win a champion hurdle with the likes of Hurricane fly (2011 2013 Faugheen 2014 and Annie power 2016   owner of faugheen and Annie power also Owen's Benie des dieux.   I'm putting my thoughts and tips on the line  and going  for the mare if she lines up on the day  , she is currently best priced at  9/4 5/2 in most places  SKYBET PP BETFRED.

Fury to contest the St Ledger Doncaster Andrew Nelis

Trainer Richard Spencer has identified the St Leger at Doncaster as the primary objective for his exciting colt Tyson Fury. The Newmarket handler confirmed in February of last year that the two-time heavyweight world champion had given his blessing for the Iffraaj colt to be named in his honour, with part-owner Phil Cunningham friendly with a member of Fury's team. While it has taken a while for the equine Tyson Fury to hit the racecourse, he produced a knockout display on his Doncaster debut earlier in the month, leaving connections dreaming of a tilt at Classic glory later in the year...                      Andrew Nelis Racing 

Aidan Obrien trio crack Asaault ready for the Qatar sussex stakes Goodwood Andrew Nelis racing

  £20 Risk Free First Bet Aidan O’Brien could saddle a formidable three-pronged assault in his bid for a sixth victory in the Qatar Sussex Stakes at Goodwood. It is 21 years since the popular Giant’s Causeway provided the Ballydoyle handler with his first win in the prestigious Group One contest, a success he still recalls fondly two decades on. The record-breaking Rock Of Gibraltar (2002), Henrythenavigator (2008), Rip Van Winkle (2009) and The Gurkha (2016) have all since added their names to the roll of honour in a race O’Brien ranks highly in the Flat racing calendar. “Giant’s Causeway is a horse that would come to mind when you think of the Sussex. It’s a very difficult race to win,” said the trainer. “It’s a very prestigious mile race. It’s the ultimate test really – it’s up and it’s down and it’s left and right. They have to have speed and stamina and they have to be very versatile. “It can be the ultimate test of a miler, physically and mentally. It’s a very important race ...

Epsom Derby Runners and riders 2020 Andrew Nelis

1 AMHRAN NA BHFIANN Sire : Galileo.  Trainer : Aidan O’Brien.  Official rating : --.  Odds : 50-1 Who will add their name to the Derby roll of honour? Positives : His sister, Was, won the Oaks on her third start in 2012, while his brother, Douglas Macarthur, finished seventh in the 2017 Derby after being deployed as a pacemaker. He himself offered something to work on when fourth in a Leopardstown maiden last time, when finishing behind three stablemates who subsequently all made their presence felt in the Irish Derby. His best days are ahead of him. Negatives : Has mountain to climb on form and even his master trainer has not pulled off the trick of winning the Derby with a twice-raced maiden. Indeed, the last maiden to win the race was in 1887. Verdict : Folly to underestimate anything his trainer runs but easy enough to looks elsewhere. 2 EMISSARY Sire : Kingman.  Trainer : Hugo Palmer.  Official rating : 98.  Odds : 33-1 ...
