He didn’t stop he needed proper ground and a good gallop - should have run in the Gold Cup - good old Envoi Allen ew .
 
Hard to believe Il Est Francais is the same horse that stormed round Kempton last year in a monster time.

Very disappointing.

The winner did look brilliant but Heart Wood was second and he's only rated 159 so I'm wondering if the race rather fell in his lap.

Won't emd up a vintage renewal but winner far from all out

Guess it's Melling or Punchestown next
 
One for the Aftertiming thread but I love this horse and of course I backed him - took 16s as well. Happy me!
And it was a peach of a ride too.
 
Sorry I have not replied, it all becomes a bit hectic. I have had a couple of pints, but I will remember I need to be polite. But what do you all think regarding Henry de bromhead, the way his horses seem to suddenly come alive. Okay this can happen, but I don't buy this, it happens too often at the major meetings for my liking. Any thoughts ?

All I am saying, the yard has been completely out of form. This has happened before, and then suddenly today at Cheltenham

Air Of Entitlement wins at 16/1
Heart wood second at 18/1
Bob Olinger wins at 8/1, he was twice this price this morning.

It looks like a good Patent bet to me, it was almost a very good one 😃.

The ownership must be pleased with the prize money 😆.
 
Derryhassen Paddy 3.20 chelt tomorrow 11/1 William Hill
Is unbeaten over hurdles and looks to be an out and out stayer.
This track with its uphill finish should be ideal.

The Moore family did this for lifetimes and nobody gave it a thought.
L'Escargot, Tied Cottage, Arctic Ale, Klairon Davies, Drumgora etc etc had very few wins apart from the big races.
As Paddy Mullins was wont to say, If you want to win a big pot be prepared to leave small pots behind.
It brings back the good ones year in, year out though. Envoi Allen, Bob Olinger etc

I know it goes on, but is it fair on the punter ? Not only do you have to work out the form and decide which horse has preformed the best. But your also asking the punter, to read the mind of the owner/trainer, as to know when they will allow their horses to preform at their best.
