Go on the percy.huge local interest in him around Craughwell

It’s an interesting campaign route. Ground yielding to soft so it’s not that.

Going to the Gold Cup without jumping a fence all season! Fair ****s to them!

Idiotic.

I guess native river had 1 run and did it. Still this would be a first?

At least his run was over fences. Also had a campaign out of novice company and was battle hardened from winning races like the Hennessy and the Welsh National.

Doubt it’s ever happened in recent years anyway. Think bobs worth went with just the one run year he won it too. Bottom line for me would be if Pat Kelly isn’t bothered, then I wouldn’t be bothered either. But will pat actually tell us one way or the other?

Presenting Percy is a class animal but no way he can be backed it his current prices.
Be a minor miracle if he wins.

What’s everyones thoughts on Shattered Love in the Gold Cup? Small chance? Chance of running into a place? No hope at all?

Think Percy wins it, Shattered love each way if she’s a big price. Don’t think RTR has any chance but have to stick with him just incase, Tout Est Permis a real dark horse for it he runs but unlikely

SL goes for the GC alright. Been aimed at it all season I reckon (well like most) but I expect to see a marked improvement on what she's shown so far this season. GE probably hasn't had her anywhere near 100%. I think he's purposely tried to get her there under the radar.

Jaysus lads hes well schooled at home not as if he hasnt seen a fence all season. Not for me anyways but he wont be far away.

Allaho is my idea of a winner. Which race though, maybe Ballymore over AB (Mullins said to racing TV, but that's not reliable!)?. This horse I understand is well though of and he will come on 20 lenghts from yesterday's win. Big owners from Flat, cost big bucks I presume and big yard. Whatever race, I'll be backing him as I think we will all look afterwards and think, how did I miss the obvious?

No chance. Reynolds has said it's entered but unlikely to run.
Enough said

Charlie George

Very strange, had safe ground in gowran, it will be fascinating to see how he runs in the gc.

Gringo180

Wrapping Percy up like he has stud value.

Doctors room ghost

I’m going to have a flutter on him.GO ON THE PERCY

HarshOstrich

Really wish I backed glen forsa for the arkle before I tipped him up earlier, what price was he ?
I think he would be certain to place in the race but le richebourg would prob be too good.

Not Cheltenham but the 16's on offer for Didtheyleaveuoutto in the Betfair Hurdle looks good value off a mark of 139.

Should get a decent run tomorrow with it being rerouted to Ascot, 2/2 at the track and half the price now.

If Percy wins the gc without a run over fences, it could be the best training performance ever.

2 doubles for me today

Yanworth/Sceau Royal
Kilultagh Vic/Politilogue.

Looks a decent day racing.

He’s after improving some amount . Was a drifter at Xmas off 120 or something and won lovely

Yanworth is my idea of a hound . But that means he probably wins. Have clan sea obeaux, sceau royal and Politilogue in a treble . Think waiting patiently will be shown up today . But that doesn’t mean my lad will beat him it’s a serious race , pity my favorite top notch couldn’t run

Plasandrunt

oh he is an absolute hound, have backed him 3 years in a row at the Festival and he's let me down each time. Keep coming back to him.

Realised this is in the wrong thread.

HarshOstrich

Dunno why everyone is against waiting patiently, his form is the best on offer only negative is he hasn’t had a proper run this season, but he wasn’t injured, his win in this race last year looks really good with frodon in 3rd having achieved so much this year and top notch in 4th only highlights the horses that beat him.
If he is the same horse he wins this with the minimum of fuss.
Has beaten Politologue as a novice as well.

Dunno about you, but my 16/1 got voided and refunded as track changed. Had to go in again at 17/2

You're right, checked this morning and that was the case. I took some 9's today, still a bit of value in it.

Not at all. Hes run some of his best races around there, obviously barring this year as hes improved immensely

If he’d won 1 race there I’d be tempted but have a niggling doubt. His coat color today is what you want to see in a horse

Elixir de Nutz form just got a serious boost.

Gavin "shels"

Not up against but Clan cruised beautifully around and jumped lovely!

Theres the supreme winner anyway, Al Dancer.

Fair play to them. The supreme has an entirely new field every year. Every year is independent of the last

Won an atrocious mares hurdle last year, I would fancy Limini to beat her if shes back to form.

Looking back - there's nothing bad about Liminis recent form, horse behind her last day won by big distance today. Apples Jade is utterly unbeatable when she is in the mood. Nothing wrong with being 2l away from Percy and Supersundae. That's fair form. Limini crucified me at Galway. Time for pay back

You were on Terrefort yesterday yeah? Something tells me you don't rate CDO at all anyway.

The more I look at the gold cup the more I think we are in for a strange result.
Anibale fly maybe, he is being brought on slowly and should be ready to peak in gold cup after his good run yesterday, I met a guy in a bar at Cheltenham last year who was celebrating anibale coming 3rd, said they got a tip months ago to do it e/w,he had a few hundred on it at 100/1 or 150/1 can’t remember.

Lads/ladies does anyone know what race Champagne Classic is going for?
I have backed it at 20s just there with 365 but noticed he has a few entries.

I think if he runs well today(expecting him to win) the price will be halfed.
