Alan King is confident that 2008 Champion Hurdle winner Katchit has regained his racing form ahead of his title defence at the Cheltenham festival. The Champion Hurdle is the main showpiece race on the first day of the festival meeting on Tuesday, 10 March.
The six-year-old did not perform very well in his first three efforts of the season, but King seems to think that some of the old gusto is back ahead of March’s Festival.

Katchit has become something of a forgotten horse recently after a hugely disappointing start to the racing calendar this year. So demoralized was the trainer with the preformance of Katchit in his first three races of the season, he decided to send him away from the stable for a break.
Following his Cheltenham success, Katchit was overcome by Snap Tie at Kempton, Chomba Womba at Wincanton and then made little impact behind Champion Hurdle favourite Binocular in the Boylesports.com International.
But after spending a month with Richard Pitman, Katchit has returned to King’s Barbury Castle stable in Wiltshire in great shape and the trainer admits to being very pleased with him for the first time in months.

It remains to be seen whether Katchit can help the stable equal their success of three victories at Cheltenham last year, it remains to be seen as King concedes he has been "very impressed" by Binocular.
But he still harbours hopes that former Queen Mother Champion Chase winner Voy Por Ustedes can bring success in the Ryanair Chase on the Thursday of the festival and is upbeat about the chances of his novice hurdlers.
Regardless of what lies ahead, King has pointed out that Katchit could be raced over longer distances for the next season.

Tony McCoy, 13-time champion jockey, finally reached his 3000th career jumps win at Plumpton aboard Restless D’Artaix with a narrow victory to the delight of his supporters and trainer Nicky Henderson, although breaking records is not something new for the jockey.

BET NOW

The 34-year-old Irishman has already become the all-time most successful jumps jockey in Britain when on 27 August 2002, he beat Richard Dunwoody’s total winners of 1,699 when riding on Mighty Montefalco at Uttoxeter. He has also beaten Sir Gordon Richards’ record tally of 269 winners in a season on the horse Valfonic at Warwick on April 2, 2002.
McCoy was born in County Antrim in 1974, he began his career on the Flat races and gained his first winner, Legal Steps, at Thurles in March 1992. His first jumps winner came with the horse Riszard, who was also his first National Hunt ride, at Gowran in April 1994. He then decided to link up with Toby Balding for the 1994-95 season and rode his first winner in England on Chickabiddy at Exeter on September 7, 1994.

He then went on to have a magnificent partnership with Martin Pipe, after eight years of working with Pipe they decided to part company and he was quickly appointed as a retained jockey for millionaire owner JP McManus in 2004.
In a glittering career, McCoy has won the King George, the Queen Mother Champion Chase, the Cheltenham Gold Cup and the Champion Hurdle.The only thing left for McCoy to win is the Grand National which continues to be elusive to him in his unrelentless quest for the big-race triumphs.

There has been hundreds of arguments with Horse racing enthusiasts for years over the Kentucky Derby, with fans from The UK arguing that the English Derby is the biggest flat race in the world of flat racing and the US fans all saying that it is the Kentucky Derby, one thing is for certain though and that is this will be is an argument that will never be settled one way or the other.
Last year’s winner Big Brown who I feel was retired far too early to stud was built for this race with his powerful change of gear that no other horse seemed to cope with and if you ask me could have gone on to dominate racing around the World for a number of years but now we will never know.

BET NOW

The race itself ‘The Kentucky Derby’ is a Grade I stakes race that is only allowed for three year-old thoroughbred horses. The race is held every year in the Southern State of Louisville Kentucky on the first Saturday in May and the race actually caps the massive two-week-long Kentucky Derby Festival. The race is run over one and a quarter miles (2 km) at the picturesque Churchill Downs track which is one of the biggest racing stadiums in the World.

This race is one of them races that foreign trainers regularly try to do well in but due to the long hours travelling they have always suffered and will always do so in the future in my opinion. This year’s race will once again have the US race fans on tender hooks for the two minutes in which their hearts will be racing up and down and after the retirement of Big Brown I wonder which horse the US public will be talking about come May.

Bet on Horseraces – Trainer Colm Murphy believes his horse Brave Inca can win the Champion Hurdle at the Cheltenham Gold Cup event. The 11 year old won comfortably in the Toshiba Irish Champion Hurdle at Leopardstown. The 2006 Champion Hurdle winner had only just returned last Novemeber after injury had sidelined him for 19 months, but is showing signs of returning to his best form. Ridden by the experienced Ruby Walsh, he was made second favourite for the race at odds of 11-4.

The favourite, Sublimity, also a Cheltenham Festival winner, struggled on the soft ground and could only manage fourth place. This all sets up nicely for a strong looking field at Cheltenham this year, with previous winner Hardy Eustace and last year’s winner Katchit included in the stalls. Others to watch out for Snap Tie and the in-form Crack Away Jack. As for the Gold Cup race itself, punters will be glad to see that trainer Paul Nicholls has entered last year’s champion Denman, who has not raced since the last Gold Cup due to a heart problem. Former winner Kauto Star, also trained by Nicholls, isa also among the 38 entrants. Ireland’s main threat is from War of Attrition, the winner in 2006, but unfortunately Slim Pickings wont be there this year after having sustained a broken leg which meant he had to be put down.

The last two weeks of Horse racing in the UK have been hit hard by the freezing conditions that have hit the courses all the around the British Isles very hard with many top class meetings having to be abandoned due to parts of the track just simply not being up to the task of being able to stage races with sub zero temperatures sweeping the country which shows no signs of stopping.

The only jump meeting to survive the blizzard over the weekend was funnily enough in the beautiful Scottish city of Ayr where you would have thought it would have been at its coldest! One trainer who will be glad that the meeting went ahead will be Howard Johnson who celebrated his 50th winner of the season just before the turn of the New Year and carried on his stables good form here in Ayr, the best race of the day at Ayr was the one in which two horses gave a great account of themselves with both Johnson’s Prince De Beauchene and Bracken lad serving up a cracker to warm up the crowd on this very cold day.

Denis O Regan is a jockey that seems to have grown in the past 12 months and he was on top of Prince De Beauchene who edged out Bracken lad and with two fences to go pulled away to give favourite backers a nice victory with him coming home at a decent 13/8 price because quite frankly he was head and shoulders above everything else and really should have been odds on at least.
With Paul Nicholls horses already bang in form and now Mr Johnsons horses going that way I can see some great battles coming up over the next few months with Cheltenham being at the forefront of both their minds I am sure.

After a sluggish start to the Season Paul Nicholls is now looking like he has turned the corner after he enjoyed a fruitful week last week and is now once again looking like the trainer to watch in the next couple of weeks and months.
After Star Stable Jockey Ruby Walsh fell injuring himself a few weeks ago Deputy Sam Thomas was unable to bring any of Paul Nicholls horses home in 1st place and clearly lacked something which eventually returned in big fashion last Tuesday in the big rearranged race at Irish course Leopardstown.

BET NOW

The John Durkan Memorial Chase is a Grade 1 race that represented a big task for Thomas who was riding one of the fancied horses in Noland who was still a novice himself last season, but you would never have guessed it the way he jumped so confidently around the course and managed to take over the lead when The Listener made a mistake and blundered four out. Many fans in the stands thought the race was won but The Listener managed to rally once again when on the flat, but Thomas was not going to let this one slip through the net and held on to win the race by half a length and send home all the people that stood by him with a broad smile on their faces.

With so many big jump races coming up over the next few weeks and the imminent return of Star jockey Ruby Walsh I would recommend having each way tipples on whatever Sam Thomas rides because he now looks to have got over his early season troubles and could well reap rewards over the season.

The latest big news in the world of Horse racing is the return to form of Paul Nicholls Horses after his Charge Noland won the big race at Punches town on Tuesday, coming in at a price of 9/4 Nicholls fans will be glad to see that he finally has won big race this season and with 2nd in command Sam Thomas still on board after Ruby Walsh’s injury it bodes well for the next couple of weeks and following Mr Nicholls could be a good tip for all you Horse racing fans amongst you.

Last year’s Grand National winner Comply or Die makes his 2nd performance of the season this week at Cheltenham, his 1st appearance was forgotten pretty quickly as he was pulled up by jockey Timmy Murphy when trailing way at the back of the race and did not really seem too bothered, but with in form trainer David Pipe now saying he is getting back to his best he will be one to watch very carefully over the next few months.

Another one of my favourite jump horses is Monet Garden and on Thursday (Dec 11th) he showed why, having looked beat on a few occasions he showed such courage in not giving in and won a frantic duel with another in form horse Snoopy Loopy in the Peterborough chase at Huntingdon. The 5-1 chance had who had disappointed in his last race in the Old Roan Chase at Aintree was always travelling well on this occasion under relatively unknown jockey Davy Condon and produced some fantastic leaps throughout the extended two-and-a-half-mile contest in which he just got up to win.
