Imperial Alcazar
Usually the winner of the Pertemps is a year in the planning, but we were actually set to go chasing with Imperial Alcazar half way through the season. I am glad we stuck to hurdles as I think he comes here with a massive chance. Regular readers of this column will know I have loved this horse from day one, and I was hugely impressed with him at Warwick last time. So was the handicapper, who has raised him 8lb, but I would like to believe his revised mark of 147 still underestimates his talent and potential. He has great course form, and he has a favourite’s chance in my book. Unibet's 15 To Go Offer is running on all Cheltenham Festival races.
