I'm going to wait until next week but if you can get the Supreme Novices without My Tent or Yours, Champagne Fever might be worth an each-way (it's about tens at the moment).

What worries me is that a lot of the season has been run on heavy, and now the ground is drying up. I went to Newbury for the Cheltenham Trials and I can see a few of those that stayed on to win being beaten on softer ground.

Relishing the start of the Festival.

And I'm happy to run a bit of a Tipping competition as we did last year, will dig out the rules and re-post with Day 1's Races tomorrow.

Champagne Fever is coming in to 8s. Quevega looks unbeatable too.

My each-way value tips are:
- Knockara Beau at 2:40
- Cinder and Ashes 3:20 (won't win, could place, worth a fiver)
- 4pm- Sizing Australia

Doesn't seem like many people are left from last year, but here we go anyway. Exact same rules as last year, 'betting' with theoretical money.

Rules
- Predictions and Edits in at least an hour before Racing each day. (12:30pm I think)
- £10 to bet per race. A maximum of 2 horses per race.
- Entirely up to you whether you go e/w or to win.
- The odds used will be those the Racing Post select on their Results page.

Results will be posted at the end of each day. There'll be a winner each day and the main aim is to be the person who 'wins most money' at the end of the week.

Tuesday's Races

1:30 - William Hill Supreme Novices Hurdle

2:05 - Racing Post Arkle Challenge Trophy Chase

2:40 - JLT Specialty Handicap Chase

3:20 - Stan James Champion Hurdle

4:00 - Glenfarclas Handicap Chase

4:40 - OLBG Mares' Hurdle

5:15 - Rewards4Racing Novices Handicap Chase.


Good luck for the Festival Everyone!
