Day two tips: Altior and Delta Work can grab prizesHorse dies and three jockeys suspended in day one finaleAnd feel free to email Barry or tweet him @bglendenning 1.46pm GMT If Gordon Elliott is still winnerless by this point, surely Delta Work can get him over the line, being a really classy chaser in the making. He won a handicap hurdle at the last Festival. The weather has come right for Santini and there will be much less emphasis on speed than when he was third at Kempton over Christmas. His third in last year’s Albert Bartlett was a decent first outing at the Festival and he is hopefully over the soreness he suffered in a foot last week.Topofthegame has yet to win over fences but his two second places this term represent quality form and he was just pipped in a handicap hurdle here last year. On The Blind Side worked rather better than Santini in a racecourse gallop recently but can take a while to warm up in his races. 1.41pm GMT 1 City Island (M P Walsh) 8-1 2 Champ (B J Geraghty) 9-2 3 Bright Forecast (Nico de Boinville) 25-1 16 ran Also: 3-1 Fav Battleoverdoyen, 11-1 Brewin’upastorm 4th Tote: win 9.00 places 2.90 2.10 7.40 Tote Exacta: 54.20 CSF: 41.49 Tricast: 889.05 Continue reading…
