When is the Juvenile Handicap Hurdle 2023?
Cheltenham Tuesday 14th March 4.50pm
Boodles Juvenile Handicap Hurdle (Grade 3) (4yo)
Distance: 2 Miles ½ furlongs
Race six on day one is registered as the Fred Winter Handicap Hurdle and sponsored by Boodles.
This is a race for juvenile novice hurdlers, run over two miles and 110 yards where they jump eight obstacles. This is a race where you might be able to pick out a high-priced winner with six of the last eight winners having returned at 25/1 plus.
That said it still tends to go to the top stables, with Paul Nicholls having won the race three times and Gordon Elliot twice in recent years.

Who are the Juvenile Handicap Hurdle Leading Contenders?
How many of these could go down the Triumph Hurdle route?
CHAMPION GREEN may not be good enough for that test given what he’s shown, but he’s certainly hinted at enough ability to make a good first of this Festival Handicap should Joseph O’Brien’s charge take his chance.
Useful on the flat he’s largely ran well over hurdles in his four starts to date and he quickly bounced back from his Punchestown mishap where his saddle slipped and rider lost his irons to impress at Naas when last seen out where he wore both a hood and tongue-tie.
Making all the running he could be called the winner some way out, readily repelling all-comers who challenge him and once kicked clear before the last he asserted for an easy win.
It will be interesting to see what mark the handicapper allocates him following that performance but it is likely there’s more to come and the yard has won this in the past. He could be a big player.
ANTE-POST SELECTION: CHAMPION GREEN
Here's what Keith said ahead of the Juvenile Handicap Hurdle:
QUILIXIOS – Unbeaten in 4 starts, Grade 1 winner at Leopardstown in February, makes handicap debut.
ZANAHIYR – Flat winner who is 3/3 over hurdles.
SAINT SAM – Won 2 hurdles in France before joining Willie Mullins, behind QUILIXIOS and ZANAHIYA on last two starts but recieves weight from both of them.
ZOFFANIEN – Progressive over hurdles, landed a handicap at Naas last time in some style.
What’s Our Juvenile Handicap Hurdle Tips?
It is going to be interesting to see how many of these babies are left at the 48 hour stage but as the stats favour light weights I am eliminating the pair at the head of the betting market. While SAINT SAM has a chance at these weights at present I have a slight preference for ZOFFANIEN.
On the day, Keith gave this tip to our members:
JEFF KIDDER Cheltenham 66/1 each way – A race noted for big priced winners full of unexposed babies. JEFF KIDDER got off the mark at Fairyhouse with some ease in November but was out of his depth in a Grade 2 last time. Massive shout at big odds.
How did he do?
JEFF KIDDER – well we have to shout about an 80/1 winner! 66/1 when Keith first advised and drifted to 80/1 Jeff Kidder waited with in mid-division, steady headway and switched right before 2 out, weaved way through between horses approaching the last, challenged last, ridden to lead run-in, quickened clear – great ride and a great result for Keith – 2021 Cheltenham Festival will be in profit for our members.
FRT Tipster Keith’s wrote this for the 2020 Boodles Juvenile Handicap Hurdle:
Gordon Elliott handles the ante-post favourite ARAMAX, who won a Naas Novice Hurdle pretty convincingly in February in the hands of Mark Walsh, setting him up for a crack at this race.
After careful consideration of the other possible contenders, I am passing him up in favour of THYME WHITE, trained by Paul Nicholls and owned by his landlord at Ditcheat, the Stewart Family. THYME WHITE won the Scottish Triumph hurdle at Musselburgh at the beginning of February, and while he also holds an entry for the Cheltenham Triumph Hurdle on Friday, this is a more realistic target.
How did Keith Do?
In the Juvenile Novices Hurdle THYME WHITE appeared not to stay on the soft ground going quickly from having every chance 2 flights out to having no chance at the last.
