Hi Reader

A couple of eye catchers taken from the Cheltenham Festival. There could have been twenty however best to keep the number to two.

Check out eye catchers for this week below:

Beat The Bat

Beat The Bat - 4th in 2.40 Cheltenham 12/03/25

Beat The Bat was well backed to win the Coral Cup. He ended up in front with Impose Toi over the second last hurdle and a long way from the finishing line. To the horse's credit he battled all the way up the hill to finish fourth.

This was the furthest he has raced and I think the premier middle distance handicap at the Aintree Festival is ideal. That race is a furlong shorter on a flat course. The handicapper has raised him two pounds which is fair. He has shown good form in the past on flat courses like Haydock, Windsor & Newbury.

Lulamba

Lulamba - 2nd in 1.20 Cheltenham 14/03/25

Lulamba was the best horse in the Triumph hurdle even if not winning the race! The lack of racing experience counted against Lulamba. The first and third placed runners had several races on the flat and knew how to battle in a finish. Lulamba hurdled well enough if a tad sloppy over the second last hurdle.

Lulamba showed a good turn of foot to battle back past East India Dock after the last up the rail. Lulamba and Nico de Boinville had no chance to spot Poniros on the other side of East India Dock. A cracking effort on his second run for Nicky Henderson following a procession at Ascot. I’d love to see the front five turn up at Aintree where I’d fancy Lulamba to come out on top.
