Lucy's 40th Birthday Celebration Open National Hunt Flat Race (Category 1 Elimination) (GBB Race)

🤖 AI race preview

A soft to good going at Cheltenham favours staying horses with strong recent pace, with Delusionofgrandeur and Ive Got A Friend both showing consistent ability to hold position and maintain rhythm over the final stretch. Ive Got A Friend stands out on form with a strong recent run at Worcester where he led and kept on well, a clear improvement over his previous outing, and his 101 RPR and 163lbs reflect a competitive weight profile despite a class drop from Cl4 to Cl5; his recent performance under Brian Hughes suggests he can make a strong appeal in a field where pace is likely to be contested. The main danger comes from Port Isaac, who made all at Doncaster in soft ground and has shown resilience in tough conditions, while Littlebobbydazzler, with a recent win at Bangor and a 105 RPR, offers a sharp each-way player at the forecast price with a solid track record in similar conditions.
