A disappointing Tuesday but I fancy Champ strongly to win the RSA on Wednesday. I took quite a while to warm to the horse and, ironically, he impressed me most last time when he fell. His jumping technique is sound and I think it was just a loss of concentration at Cheltenham.
Long term followers of the blog will be joining me in cheering on Defi Du Seuil for the Queen Mother Champion Chase. I tipped him at 20/1 at the end of last season on my Lazybet blog (which preceded this one).
Another I fancy fairly strongly is Protektorat in the 2.50. I thought he was much too keen for his own good last time. Trainer Skelton knows how to get one ready for the Festival and I’ll be backing this tomorrow.
The only other one I really like is Ocean Wind in the last. The day he won at Newbury last time impresed me even more than Epatante’s victory on the same card.
The rest of the tips below are speculative:
1.30 Sporting John
2.10 Champ (Nap) 3* bet. 7/2
2.50 Protektorat
3.30. Defi Du Seuil
4.10 Might Bite
4.50 Sacchoandvanzetti
5.30 Ocean Wind
Good luck. Most tipsters are unreliable and inconsistent, including me. Don’t bet more than you can afford to lose with a smile – whatever the source of the tip.
All the best

Good luck Joe, got a small 20/1 voucher on Defi …. due a change of luck!

Aye, Paul. Same to you. It’s been a desperate season for the blog. Hopefully Defi will make amends.
All the best.

Hey Joe,
Looking good for the 1530. Followed your advice way back then, and have DDSeuil at 22/1 and currently trading at 1.4 – Hopefully does the goods today 🙂

Where the heck did Champ come from!
Good one Joe, I think Defi de Seuil was last year’s tip of the meeting so that’s form!

Aye, I was so glad to see that white cap burst onto the scene. Defi has run no race. Every horse can have an off day; he just chose the wrong one for us.
All the best.
