Dec 24, 2018, 02:44 PM

Maddy Playle is joined by Brendan Duke and debutant Robbie Wilders with the best bets from the bundles of racing over the festive period, including a very strong renewal in the King George with Might Bite looking to put his Haydock run behind him and beat his rivals at Kempton, a race he won last year.

On the show:
- On today's Racing #Postcast, Santa has delivered an early present for debutant Robbie Wilders as he joins the panel for the festive racing tipping Postcast. With a lot to prove, Robbie and the team discuss chances for huge races this Christmas and tip up some big prices...

- This year's renewal of the King George VI Chase at Kempton is a very strong one and cases can be made for every horse entered into the race. Our team try to pick holes in the field and make strong arguments for who will take the prize. With last year's winner a 3/1 favourite (at time of writing), is there value in taking a chance on him?

Our team try to pick holes in the field and make strong arguments for who will take the prize. With last year's winner a 3/1 favourite (at time of writing), is there value in taking a chance on him? - It's hard to look past the King George as the highlight race of the festive period but the week also boasts huge races including the Christmas Hurdle, where Nicky Henderson's Buveur D'Air is the odds on favourite and is expected to win for the second year running. Our team look at the betting without market to find some value... - We also look at the racing on Thursday, Nicky Henderson's Altior was a question mark for the King George a week back, and he's due to run in the Desert Orchid Chase at Kempton. Like Buveur D'Air, the team think looking at who will follow him home could reap the benefits. - Plus, the best of the rest of throughout the week, and give their best bets... #ThisWillNotBeBeaten - Weekend Naps Robbie Wilders: Road To Respect in the 3:00 Leopardstown on Friday Brendan Duke: Turtle Wars in the 1:20 at Kempton on Wednesday Boxing Day Racing on ITV: 1:20 KEMPTON 32Red.com Chase (A Novices' Limited Handicap) Cl3 Brendan Duke: Turtle Wars 1:55 KEMPTON 32Red Kauto Star Novices' Chase (In Memory Of Nigel Clark) (Grade 1) Robbie Wilders: Topofthegame Brendan Duke: Bags Groove 2:10 WETHERBY racingtv.com Rowland Meyrick Handicap Chase (Grade 3) Robbie Wilders: Takingrisks Brendan Duke: Takingrisks 2:30 KEMPTON Unibet Christmas Hurdle (Grade 1) Robbie Wilders: Buveur D'Air Brendan Duke: W/O Buveur D'Air - Verdana Blue 3:05 KEMPTON 32Red King George VI Chase (Grade 1) Brendan Duke: Might Bite Non Free To Air Racing on Boxing Day: 2:00 LIMERICK Matchbook Betting Exchange Novice Chase (Grade 1) Robbie Wilders: Getabird Brendan Duke: Getabird 2:20 LEOPARDSTOWN Racing Post Novice Chase (Grade 1) Robbie Wilders: Le Richebourg Brendan Duke: Voix Du Reve 27th December Thursday Racing on ITV4: 1.20 KEMPTON 32Red.com Wayward Lad Novices' Chase (Grade 2) Robbie Wilders: Kalashnikov Brendan Duke: Kalashnikov 1:35 CHEPSTOW Coral Finale Juvenile Hurdle (Grade 1) Robbie Wilders: Quel Destin Brendan Duke: Quel Destin 2:30 KEMPTON Unibet Desert Orchid Chase (Grade 2) Robbie Wilders: Altior Brendan Duke: Altior 2:50 CHEPSTOW Coral Welsh Grand National Handicap Chase (Grade 3) Robbie Wilders: Elegant Escape Brendan Duke: Folsom Blue All prices can be found at https://www.paddypower.com/horse-racing --- Producer: @MrRobertLee --- Subscribe on YouTube: bit.ly/2l9x35T Website: www.racingpost.com Twitter: twitter.com/RacingPost & twitter.com/RacingPostTV Facebook: www.facebook.com/racingpost Apple Podcasts: apple.co/2vq457o SoundCloud: @racingpost
