Cheltenham Festival Day Third Review Day: An unbound team is called their choices for a spbuse of merges and Ryanair chase | Racing news
Paddy Brennan is not a stranger of two feature races on the third day of the Cheltenham Festival, winning and stinging up and Ryanair Chase in his glittering career, joining Matt Chapman on a special unbridled review show ahead of the action on Thursday.
In The Stayers’ (4.00), defense attorney Tehupoo returned to defend the title after the campaign of this season, which saw him on the track only once in Fairyhouse in December.
The fact for the file is another winner of the return festival and impressed in the chase for brown advisory beginners 12 months ago.
This season he ran into the star of Gold Cup Galopin des Champs, and now he is avoiding the fourth conflict as he descends on his journey to Ryanair (3:20).
On the stops, which Brennan won the Inglis Drever ship in 2007, he said, “It looks like it is perfect soil and I don’t think it will interfere with it Teahupoo Victory or loss.
“If there was another horse I would choose, it would be a backdrop. I think he could finish very hard by the hill.”
Chapman said, “I’m worried about Teahupoo. I think he’s vulnerable on this surface and it’s not that far ahead of the others.
“I hope something else can be improved here. The home by Lee that you could claim is in the form of his life, it just depends on whether that form is good enough.
“Happy place is my choice. He is undefeated this season and has only had eight races in his life, so he is completely incomparable. I think he will absolutely love this trip and he was great at Coral Cup last year.
“This season, he beat the winner of the Golden Aco obstacle in Ascot and Horse Nicky Henderson like drying.”
The unstable team is also divided into its elections for Ryanair, who should see that the French candidate Il est Francais begins in front.
“Il Est Francais will make this very light races for a protectrat and the fact that it is filed,” Brennan said. “Galop will go and they will follow him. They just had to get into their comfort zone, but not let him clean 20 lengths.
“I think this will be a great race but I am with A fact for the file. “
Chapman said, “He is a horse who would probably want a little more cutting in the country but I don’t see much with regard to that Protector.
“He was great in Windsor and finished third in the Golden Cup. That’s more than he could have done.
“I talked to AP McCoy this week and I had the feeling that they were really thoughtful the fact that they were submitting. I think they will drive him ahead and think that they will simply go and win.”
