It’s that time of the year again when our resident tipster ‘The Stanimal’ offers some insight into who he thinks we should be watching out for in the year ahead..
2025, looks set to be another capitivating and exciting year for both horse enthusiasts and bettors alike and for those seeking to place a wager, remember that a little insight goes a long way!
Teahupoo and the fact that he is ante post 9/4 favourite for the Cheltenham stayers hurdle says it all.
Keep the faith in Constitution Hill for the Champion Hurdle currently 7/4, not sure where Sir Gino will run but he is a champion. Champion chase is difficult because Jonbon 7/2 is the favourite and he seems to win even when he’s the underdog which is why he is staying on my list.
A previous one to watch from last year Lessiemouth and doing exactly what I predicted, another champ and hopefully she will be in the mares, Cheltenham at 9/4
The King George can go to the very exciting Il Est Francais 3/1 co favourite (main image:Pierre de Lassus 4yo Hurdle race (Gr3))
I am currently hearing many whispers saying Mystical Powers 10/1 for Champion Hurdle looks a great eachway bet to me.
The whispers circulating around Grey Dawning trained by Dan Skelton are more like shouts to me for the Gold Cup but for me I will wait another year for him to get more experience.
So onto the Arkle and I know its got Willie Mullins written all over it as he has so many of all my tips from last year running but for me Ballyburn 9/4 looks to be an odds on favourite but only if Sir Gino 6/1 does not run because if he runs – he’ll win!
Brown Advisory Novice Chase looks nailed on for the big 6,2 -6,3 hands last years Triumph winner Majborough whose in there at 10/1
