2015 Champion Chase

[MrMcGoldrick]

I schooled a few of Nicky’s Cheltenham runners on Friday morning and the team as a whole seems very well. Peace And Co, Josses Hill, Vaniteux and L’Ami Serge all pleased me, but the star of the show was SPRINTER SACRE ATR Tracker, who really felt great. Nicky spoke very positively about him last weekend and I can only add to that. He’s definitely come on for the run at Ascot and is giving us all the right signs.

Would be nice to see if they're proved correct but the racecourse is a lot more unforgiving than the home gallop and schooling fences

[Thomas Shelby]

My money is on Sprinter Sacre.

DB was flat to the boards to beat him at Ascot.

Loads more to come from Sprinter Sacre IMO.

Looking forward to seeing SDG this afty, not sure what will be learned if he doesn't win but jumps well because of the huge amount of weight he's giving away, and the very soft, heavy in places ground. If on the other hand he wins today then he has to be back on the radar for March, I really like this horse and he won me a decent amount of dosh in last years QM, so I'd love to see himm back there at his best, I think he would make them all go, I just have a feeling this isn't going to be his year.

Jumped a lot better.

Jumped a lot better.

Excellent, if the others ran to their mark that was a 170 performance

[Old Vic]

Hoping we get the Match

IT IS ON.





wonder if Champagne Fever will go to Ryanair now

Mr Mole must be a 180 horse

[loveracing]

Though I still think Sprinter's jumping in his comeback run was a lot more impressive.

[loveracing]

Mr Mole must be a 180 horse

Hahaha.

We got to ignore that run Mayo.

[MrMcGoldrick]

SDG halved in price, not sure about that, this is about more than two horses

[MrMcGoldrick]

Mr Mole must be a 180 horse

He'll need to be with the start he'll give them all

It is set up to be a cracking race now. I'm on Sprinter but he will need to be very close to the horse he was.

It is probably the best Queen Mother since 2005. Really looking forward to it.
