We’re back again for Day Three of the Cheltenham Festival, with the Stayers Hurdle (3.30) and the Ryanair Chase (2.50) the centrepieces of what looks like a fiercely competitive day’s racing.
Shishkin will be seeking to rebuild his Festival reputation after an expensive blow-out in last year’s Champion Chase, but he looked back on song with a remorseless performance at Ascot last time out.
Flooring Porter will bid for his third Stayers’ crown, but he’ll have to fend off Irish pair Teahupoo and Blazing Khal in what looks like a wide-open renewal.
Just as well we have the magic man Garry Owen to help us find some winners – both of his naps have come in so far this week, Marine Nationale (9/2) on Tuesday and The Real Whacker (8/1) yesterday.
