Coral Racing Ambassador, Sean Bowen, previews his four rides at Cheltenham on Saturday, including Fugitif in the December Gold Cup.

12:10 Cheltenham – Teriferma 

This juvenile had some nice form for Joseph O’Brien before switching to Jack Jones’ stable. He has had three runs under his belt already, which is always nice for a juvenile to have that level of experience. If he transfers his form over from Ireland, he should have a great chance in this race. 

12:40 Cheltenham – Haiti Couleurs 

He is a very strong stayer who goes on all sorts of ground. His jumping was excellent at Aintree last time, which allowed him to dominate the race. I still think he could be nicely handicapped, so I am expecting a big run here. The track and distance will suit him perfectly. 

13:13 Cheltenham – Getbazoutofhere 

She has been in tremendous form this season, winning two of her three starts and finishing second in her only defeat. She remains under a mark of 100 so she is stepping up in grade massively. It is a big challenge for her, but she is a progressive mare. 

13:50 Cheltenham – Fugitif 

He was a little rusty last time at Cheltenham on his first start since having a wind-op. We were really pleased with it. He has dropped down 2lb for that run which will help. His best form at Cheltenham has come on the New Course, so we are on the right course here. This is a massive ride to pick up and one I am really looking forward to, as I believe he has a great chance.
