FREE HENNESSY HORSE RACING TIP: Unfortunately the 2015 Cheltenham Gold Cup winner, Coneygree, is out of the race after a poor schooling session earlier in the week, but there is still a good chance we’ll be able to see the 2012 winner – Bobs Worth. Nicky Henderson’s charge bounced back to winning ways with a win over hurdles at Aintree earlier this month and is now actually 7lbs lower than when winning this race back in 2012. He’s also unbeaten 2-from-2 here at the track over fences, while the yard have won this race twice in the last three years. The other big power-house yard – Paul Nicholls – holds a huge hand too with Saphir Du Rheu as he looks for yet another win in this famous race. This exciting 6 year-old has won three of his 5 chase races and heads here off the back of a smooth win at Carlisle last time out. He looks a big player, but there might not be any value backing him at around 3/1.

Smad Place is another that’s sure to be popular with punters after his smooth win at Kempton 3-4 weeks ago. Alan King’s 8 year-old has won over fences here at Newbury in the past and won’t mind it if the ground gets any softer. He beat Fingal Bay into second that day and is expected to have that one’s measure again.

Of the rest, Neil Mulholland’s The Druids Nephew took a tumble in the Grand National back in April when going well, and should be better for a recent run at Wetherby. The yard are also set to run THE YOUNG MASTER (e/w), who was only 7 lengths behind Saphir Du Rheu last time out at Carlisle, and could be the each-way value call at over three times the price. The horse has won three of his six chase starts and will be ridden by Sam Waley-Cohen, who will claim 3lbs.
