Sean Bowen Blog | Cheltenham November Meeting: Day Three
13:45 Cheltenham – Westerinthepark
This is a horse that Olly Murphy thinks a lot of. He jumped well at Stratford last time out when scoring on his first start for the yard. This is a step up in class for him, but we are confident he can make it. He was staying on well at the finish at Stratford, so I think there is much more to come from him.
14:20 Cheltenham – Gunsight Ridge
He did well to win at Perth last time out when he wasn’t in 100% form. This is his first start since having a wind-op. Hopefully, that procedure will have sharpened him up. There are only four runners in this field, and he has the lowest weight allocation of them all. I expect a big run from him.
14:55 Cheltenham – Abuffalosoldier
It was a good run last time at Exeter where he was narrowly beaten on his seasonal reappearance. We know this horse stays well, so this trip will be perfect for him. I schooled him yesterday and he schooled well. Warren is looking forward to running him. It looks a competitive handicap chase, but we should be in the mix.
15:30 Cheltenham – Go Dante
I won the Imperial Cup on this horse at Sandown last season. He is a good horse who has run in all the big handicaps. He had a wind-op since his last run at Ffos Las. I am sure this horse will pop up and win another lucrative handicap prize at some point this winter. Hopefully, it will be in this Greatwood Hurdle.
