Cheltenham November Meeting.

[edgt]

What put you on to Seo Linn? Was overpriced at 12's in the morning but didn't see it shortening that much.

The trainer /jockey combo on good ground more than anyhting.

Burdets Road wasn't far enough behind Kyprios to be opposing him here.

Be nice if he can win this as he has a touch of class

Poor old Abuffalosoldier, R.I.P

Bangers And Cash too. So sad that.

Visiting in-laws so saw no race, had no bet.

Last time I visited the in laws I had a half decent bet on Shishkin in King George -they found my reaction to what happened two out "interesting".

It’s easy to see why Burdett Road is one of the favourites having seen it hack up recently in a decent race on the Flat at Newmarket and there could be more to come into this second season over hurdles. I’ll use him to cover my other bets in the race. The second-season novices are the ones that interest me most but from a price perspective I’m leaving Dysart Enos and Be Aware out of calculations. Black Poppy, Cracking Rhapsody and Royal Way are all worth small bets at big odds. The main bet is Jacovec Tavern who was sent off 5/1f for the Ces but didn’t get home. His juvenile form with Lossiemouth puts her in here off 140 and she’s currently rated 156.

First and second in the top three and bets covered. I'll settle for that.

The form looks shit hot with a Skelton job beaten in second and some highly regarded and well backed opponents beaten off. I wouldn't be surprised if the Schweppes winner is in that field.

Well done DO. A good weekend for you.

How many potential festival winners have people spotted this weekend at Cheltenham &Navan.

What about Hamsiyann?

Was entered in our Ceserewitch and I was planning to back him. Later taken out.

Looks promising over hurdles.

Should win at least one major handicap hurdlebefore the end of the season. could see him doing the Leopardstown/Cheltenham double.

I’d have hopes for Better Days Ahead/The Yellow Clay from Navan and Jonbon/Potters Charm from Cheltenham but lots of horses to come out yet

 

[LUKE]

Jonbon will be hard to beat in Champion Chase.
