Champion Hurdle winner Binocular and the unbeaten Peddlers Cross are due to do battle at Newcastle on Saturday in the Fighting Fifth Hurdle - weather permitting. Binocular is one of my horses to follow this year and I would expect the six-year-old to prevail.
Big Bucks looks to have a straight forward assignment at Newbury in the Long Distance Hurdle on Saturday in what on paper should be no more than a racecourse gallop for the dual World Hurdle winner.
Denman will of course be going for a third win in the Hennessy Gold Cup and it would be marvellous to see the horse manage it. He has got to shoulder 11st 12lb and it will take an almighty effort off that weight and one of my other horses to follow Diamond Harry will be there or there about I hope and is worth a little investment at 7-1. The Nick Williams trained seven-year-old will be carrying 27lb less than the favourite.
Another of my horses to follow for the Jumps season Medermit will be out to redeem himself at the Tingle Creek meeting according to reports. The Alan King trained grey, one time Arkle favourite until blotting his copy book by refusing at Huntingdon on his seasonal reappearance, looks likely to run in the Henry VII Novices' Chase. I haven’t given up on him yet and look forward to seeing him run.
