Really getting stuck into the handicaps now, no denying tombstone is well in after his defeat of jezki the other day.. Thought Gordon Elliott might of had a few to many at the preview night last night he was tipping up every runner he has.. Like brother tedd in the handicap on the 1st day.. Holywell and the Druids nephew will go close in the ultimate, long call and Derin bere have good Fred winter form.. Battleford is quite interesting in the pipe.. And a bit of an outsider for the coral cup.. Tagelletelle at 40/1.. Maybe didn't get home in the pertemps last year and off a decent mark has a chance.. Got ta fancy dandridge in the grand annual and le prezion looks interesting.. Can't have CoC in the cross country.. Typical case of shit handicap mark so warm up for the national..

Don't think Brother Tedd will get a run in the Novice Handicap CW.
Ive just been toying with backing Taglietelle myself for the coral. He ran in the race two years ago and arguably should have won as Carbs over did the waiting tactics, finishing a close up 4th. I was all over him last year in the Pertemps and Jack Kennedy have him a beautiful ride but he just didn't get up the hill, after traveling well turning for home.
He can be competitive off his current mark but he also has an entry in the MP. Do you think he is more likely to run in the Coral Cup than the MP?Comment

Absolutely no chance he runs in the pipe.. The story teller has been laid out for that race and tag won't have the pace for that. At 40/1 he's worth £10 ewComment

I've took 50/1 Nrnb in the MP race. GE said he'd be running lots in the race. I will back him if he turns up in the Coral Cup though.Comment

If you've got that attitude faugheen I'd back him in both, if he gets smashed for the CC you'd hate to miss the price and with NRNB you'll only pay once.. It's a lottery of a race and he's got all the hallmarks of been laid out for the raceComment

I'm looking to get with Lac Fontana in the Martin Pipe but he's shorter with the only 2 bookies I can play with, may have to be patient...Comment

Agree ista, I'm on at 14/1 with B365.. And I get the feeling PFN is trying to contain his excitement with lac, mentioning brio conti as his best bet.. Ticks a lot of boxes for meComment

Struggling to see why there has been a bit of support for Winter Escape in the County. Everything about his form would suggest flat track and we haven't seen him since what can only be described as pathetic performance in the Greatwood.Comment

I've heard some very light rumours that Codd will be taking the Mall Dini ride in the Kim Muir.
Has anyone heard the same?Comment

I posted a link to an article last week that suggested they were going for the Kim Muir but no mention of Codd riding. Personally the only way I'd jock off Davy Russell is if I knew I'd have the best amateur on board for the Kim Muir, otherwise I'd stick with Davy and go for the Ultima.Originally posted by cpfcpatriot View Post
With regards to the same connections and their other runner Presenting Percy, now that he's going to carry a huge weight could they be tempted to find the best conditional to ride him to take some weight off? Davy is one of the best round Cheltenham but I'd certainly consider the option as you may only get one shot at glory.Comment

Codd said at a preview meeting last night that he could be riding Maldini if he ran in the Kim Muir. He also gave Cause of Causes as his best ride.Comment

Codd on Mall Dini would be very good news indeed

Mall Dini in the Kim Muir would be horrific news for several of my yankees...Comment
