Cheltenham (2.35pm UK time)

I always like to back horses who have done well at Cheltenham before in this race so that is where I will start in assessing today's field in the big betting race of the day.

This is the best horse to lay at Cheltenham today:

4.05 Cheltenham

I will be joining the rush to lay GRANDS CRU in this and I wasn't at all surprised to see it very weak in the market this morning. Although the horse is very talented and finished just 5 lengths behind Big Bucks in this year's Ladbrokes World Hurdle, I think it is asking too much of him to come out and win his first race over fences. At 3.1 on Betfair I will be pressing that pink button.

BR Betting Advice:

Lay Grands Cru in the 4.05 Cheltenham at 3.1 on Betfair (Win Market)

These are the horses to bet against today: 

3.50 Huntingdon

I will take a chance that favourite GEORGE FERNBECK isn't as good as he should be and will lay him in the Win Market on Betfair. Although this yard has a decent record in bumpers, and the horse is out of a half-sister to an Italian St Leger winner, I think he is too short in the market. Definitely worth taking on at 3.15 on the exchange. 

BR Betting Advice: 

£50 lay George Fernbeck in the 3.50 Huntingdon at 3.15 on Betfair (Win Market)

The Betfred November Handicap (on Channel 4 at 3.10 UK time) is the big betting race of the day and signals the end of the British turf flat season for another year. It is usually a race that should be avoided. Often run in heavy going and contested by horses who have had a long season, the results speak for themselves.
