Cheltenham Festival Handicaps - 2016

Aye... right...

I'll be watching him with interest in future. I wouldn't be surprised if he's trained for the Schweppes and/or County next year.

Just watched it again on +1.

Starchitect was more unlucky than the victim of incompetence. He was obviously going well enough but he was shut out like the scene from The Sting with four or five suddenly coming across him and he had nowhere to go. Scu looked after him after that as the front two had gone beyond recall.

I'll watch it again afresh later to see if I change my mind about that but I also want to see the ride Wait For Me got. I think it was a tactical disaster but I might have been watching the wrong horse.

What I did notice was that Superb Story was the one who came from furthest back of the first group home bar WFM so the pace in behind Great Field probably was quite even and the hold-up horses were disadvantaged.
