Sunday tips: Angus McNae's best bets at Huntingdon and Leopardstown

Sunday tips: Angus McNae's best bets at Huntingdon and Leopardstown

Top presenter Angus McNae marks your card for two meetings over Jumps that you can watch live on Racing TV.

1.40 Huntingdon: Aviemore

This horse was rated in the 90s on the Flat and is beginning to get his act together over hurdles. 
He won at Ludlow on his second start over obstacles and gave the impression that he only did what he had to in securing a narrow half-length success. 
There could be plenty more to come from him in this sphere and this sharp track will accentuate his biggest asset which is his speed. I am taking him to win again.

 3.30 Leopardstown: Crescent Moon

Crescent Moon shaped well when finishing second a couple of starts ago at Cork and she can build on the promise of that run. 
She disappointed up in grade on her latest start in what was a strong race. This is weaker and she can take advantage, especially as she drops back to 2m, a distance that suited her at Cork.

 3.52 Huntingdon: El Rio

El Rio has had a tremendous season and can gain another win despite a 7lb rise for winning at Kempton last time out. 
He made the running in that contest before forging clear in the home straight, looking very much like a chaser to follow. 
He has now won three of his five starts over fences and I believe he will enhance that record here.

4.27 Huntingdon: Dickens

Dickens fell three out at Uttoxeter last time when still travelling better than his rivals and he can make up for that mishap here. 
He was quite useful on the Flat and as such is well treated here off a mark of 89. 
He can take a strong hold, so this sharp track looks certain to suit in what is not a strong race. If he can get his act together over hurdles, he looks sure to go close here. 

We've got it all! The only place where you can watch every race at the Cheltenham Festival
