After the thrills of last week, don’t get sucked into the ante-post 2016 Cheltenham big race bookmaker offerings.

This time last year who would have backed the winners of the five Grade 1 championship races? Faugheen was not expected to go for the Champion Hurdle, Dodging Bullets looked below top class with poor Cheltenham form, Uxizandre had only finished second in the JLT, Cole Harden was just another novice, finishing seventh in the Neptune and Coneygree had never jumped a fence in public. It took some crystal ball to pick them out.
