Could be the most open festival I remember for some time.

Off top of my head i cant think of any absolute ‘certainty’ or odds on shot.

Even Lossiemouth will be odds against in Mares with Gordons Woodhooh in that race.

Champion Hurdle is an absolutely desperate renewal.

I thought Anzadam was disappointing. Did Poniros finish ahead of him?

Anchored out the back to get him to settle. He should run much better next time.

Brighterdaysahead has been beaten twice at Cheltenham by Golden Ace. Good boost, there.

I still believe she was knocked sideways last year by State Man as he came down. I rewatched it and haven't changed my mind.

Yeah Ive never seen it this open before

State Man banged her when he got up. Also banged into Jacks broken leg.

If race was tomorrow Id be on her.

Golden Ace had already overtaken BDA, by the time State Man had fallen. Golden Ace ran a hugely underrated race.

Gordon Elliott said on Racing TV that Brighterdaysahead had a knee problem when she ran in last year's Champion Hurdle. He thought that she was already beaten when she jumped the second hurdle.

She weren’t right last year.

 

[Gaz's Way De Solzen]

I don't think Lossiemouth was ever travelling, she looked uncomfortable after 3 hurdles.

Fair play to Brighterdaysahead, she did that well.

Winner of the CH in March? Absolutely no idea!

Correct

January was an awful punting month. I wasn't expecting to get a chunk of it back today. It's a stupid game.

Don't sweat it , everyone has their purple patches & times where they feel like they're just getting humped

Ok, but that’s different to saying State Man banged into her and cost her the race.

We’ll see, come March.

 

[nickf88]

Couldn’t back him but Inothewayurthinkin is 14/1 for tomorrow. Surely has to run into a place to be considered for Cheltenham?

Misinterpreted what ive said i suspect. Just confirming to Jinny State Man did bang into BDA.

Golden Ace was always going to finish in front of her regardless. Just not this year

They have to get a real run into his legs surely. Do they really expect him to go from 0-100 in March? This is their last chance

KImi de Mai 3.52 Leoperdstown.
Had a bit at 28s ew. A tough handicap to pitch it in on it's Hc debut.
Beat the 146 rated Karbau in a bumper in France on heavy going.

Got 35s at ladbrookes as well. Ran well. Place money covered my bets.

Well done Rob. Fair play to you.

You put the horses up with a bit of reasoning and have a good amount of successes.

William Hill Hurdle next week. Look forward to hearing your opinion on it.

 

[vikingflagship]

Although they showed little of horses in parade ring from the short few seconds Lossiemouth didn't seem to look herself there either

I don’t agree, but it will be good race this year. Competitive, if lacking in real quality.

I had it but nothing with it.

Agree on the good race bit, doesnt have to be full of grade 1 animals for it to be a good betting heat and watch.

Somehow, i can see Con Hill going off fav, if he wins his flat race anyway. Leave that for the other thread though
