We reveal the three most backed horses over the Christmas period.
LOSTINTRANSLATION is set for a mouth-watering clash in the King George VI Chase on Boxing Day and Oddschecker users fancy Colin Tizzard’s sensation to get the better of both of Paul Nicholls’ runners. His effort in the Betfair Chase was amazing and he is being backed to follow it up again on Thursday. It will be his hardest task to date but Robbie Power’s ride is one of the most exciting horses in training and his potential knows no bounds.
CHACUN POUR SOI is being heavily backed as he makes his eagerly anticipated seasonal reappearance. The potential superstar was last seen beating Defi Du Seuil at Punchestown in May. To run to that sort of level on just his sixth start was unbelievable and punters are licking their lips at the thought of an improved horse showing up at Leopardstown on the 27th. He is in the running for the Champion Chase at Cheltenham and it will be a lot clearer after Friday what chance he has.
ABACADABRAS is running in the Novice Hurdle, also at Leoparstown on the 27th. Gordon Elliott’s exciting five year-old has had a fantastic season so far, only narrowly losing out to Envoi Allen last time out. Before that, he won his first two races of this season, putting in some mightily impressive performances. He is destined for big things and punters think he will take this in his stride.
