    2 Mile Chasers 20/21

    Because I love to punish myself and follow horses off a cliff regularly, I took 66/1 E/W 3 places on Esprit Du Large for the Tingle Creek a couple weeks ago. With a view that a number of the main players wouldn't show up and based on his King Henry run at same track last year, that he could...

    2 Mile Chasers 20/21

    Was stuffed in this last year on soft ground. Think he's best in the Spring myself First Flow will love the ground - but not sure he's good enough

    2 Mile Chasers 20/21

    Looking at the forecast, there's potentially 30mm of rain at Sandown before Saturday afternoon. That's a lot. Potential to even turn it beyond soft to heavy.

    Is this a 365 special too?

    2 Mile Chasers 20/21

    All the money for Cash Back this morning. Getting 8lbs from Notebook to make up 1/2 Length from their DRF duel. Don't think there's any other reason than that for the price differential.

    In hindsight, Relegate was too short. But the money was down and the right people were on etc. And the Pertemps was a 24 runner H'Cap with probably the most plots in it of all festival races! The Marsh is a graded Novice chase, with plenty of true form on offer. They are not remotely...

    Without checking back, I think you said something like "The Marsh is simple, Itchy feet just wins, doesn't he". Not sure what Relegate has to do with the Marsh chase? Can only assume it's a subtle dig at me, knowing I was on him. If so, I'll retort by reminding you that I was on him at 50/1...

    Frankel, we discussed this on another thread pre Cheltenham, where you were very strong on itchy feet. I opposed him strongly based on form, jumping and lack of tactical speed. You disagreed at the time, which of course is your right. The bit you seem to be leaving out in this post festival...

    Interesting topic this. Had Darver star not shown his hand in the Irish champion hurdle, could he have won a county off 146? Maybe not this Country as Saint Roi was so well in. But in general or bearing future county's and this template in mind. DS rated 159 now, so according to the hcapper...

    Horses That Missed The Festival

    Didn't realise he'd been sold. Who bought him, Nick? You're favourite website (Ex-paper [emoji3]) still has him as owned by Munir & Souede?

    E. Mullins has already suggested RSA F. He was bought as a gold cup horse

    I think Monkfish is nailed on to go RSA myself. (As nailed on as any WPM horse could be 11.5 months out :))

    Monkfish, Latest Exhibition, Fury Road and Thyme Hill. How many of them go chasing, though? Monkfish 100% anyway and Fury Road highly likely too. Maybe all 4 go chasing?

    Lack Of Views & Interest

    Hi TT, I know I haven't posted on your threads before, but I have always looked in with interest and have backed a number of your picks from time to time. I know you've been posting for quite a while, but I'd suspect now more than ever that the general forum population will be looking more...

    What are you backing Today?

    Solid run. Good placed effort. In running Betting in that race was very strange.... Betfair seemed to confuse Bread and Butter with Istabraq!!! He traded very short all the way round, despite never being in the race and never looking like mounting a challenge... Very strange.

    What are you backing Today?

    Backed him already, but has taken a big walk out on the machine past 5 mins. Confidence is low now :(

    Hattons grace hurdle next season maybe? Likely have to face Honeysuckle there though.

    Without doing in depth research, I've a feeling almost all of kings ran well below par and expectations... I had him 3rd on a mental list of trainers horses who significantly underperformed at the festival, after Tizzard and Hobbs.
