Barbers Shop Gold Cup odds have been clipped to around 14-1 as the build up to the race gathers its usual momentum. After all the hullabaloo surrounding the Denman and Kauto Star rivalry last year, punters and plaudits alike have jumped ship this year and have backed alternatives.
Yes Kauto Star is favourite, best priced 9-4 with Stan James and certainly has the class to win for the second time, but by the same token there is enough suggestion around racing circles that says the Queens ‘Barbers Shop' is one of the better alternatives.

After his performance at Sandown in December, trainer Nicky Henderson has been purring with the form of Barbers Shop and believes that he will stay all day and the Cheltenham track, where he came second last year in the Jewsons Novices, is perfect for him.

Kauto Star after winning his third King George during the Festive season is a worthy favourite but he has not been totally convincing this season and his jumping at times has been more than suspect; we think he is well worth taking on when the pressure is on.
Barbers Shop is still a snip at 14-1 with Ladbrokes and is likely to get clipped even shorter during the build up to the Festival feature.
9-4 Kauto Star, 5-1 Neptune Collonges, 6-1 Denman, 8-1 Madison De Berlais, 10-1 Exotic Dancer, 14-1 Barbers Shop, 16-1 Albertas Run, 20-1 Air Force One, 33-1 Star De Mohaison, 50-1 Bar
