2012 Cheltenham Day Four Tips and Preview: Albert Bartlett
- By A.J. Ryder on March 15, 2012 18:22 GMT
We've got a few well-qualified selections ready to roll in the Albert Bartlet just before the big feature race of the entire festival. Expect plenty of drama, as well as a few twists and turns, along the way as we get closer and closer to the big one.
There's a pretty deep field in this one but not quite as tricky to handicap as the previous race. Several of these are breakout novices who come in with very justifiable form – a few of them are looking for their fourth or fifth win on the bounce so far. Very few are lightly raced and freshness may be an issue for some of them.

Plenty of value exists for a punter looking to do his homework and be a little bit brave. Boston Bob is very short at 5/4 and you do have to wonder whether punters are going to continue heaping money on a novice contender who still might see others getting dramatically better since their last efforts.
Mount Benbulben gets Paul Carberry and will take some additional support on the day with bookmakers saddling him with a 6/1 price at the time of this writing.
After such a smashing performance this afternoon from Sir Des Champs you also have to wonder how much money Tour Des Champs is going to take for the Twiston-Davies yard? He's at 66/1 right now and will likely halve in price by the off.
Each-way punters should scope out Sivola De Sivola who looks good value at a 22/1 price that certainly won't be available tomorrow (16/1 or 14/1 would be more appropriate). Ignore the last race because he was brought back to 2m1f from his preferred distance of 3m where he scored in his second last.
VERDICT:
Sivola De Sivola for the each-way and at the top of a forecast with Benbulben and Boston Bob on the bottom or as an each-way saver.
