Ruby Walsh Cheltenham Rides 2017

[Old Vic]

“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Here goes, then we can all scoff at how wrong I have got it on 14 March...

Supreme - Melon
Arkle - Royal Caviar
Champion Hurdle - Yorkhill
Mares - Vroum Vroum Mag
Neptune - Saturnas
RSA -
Champion Chase - Douvan
Bumper - Wylie horse that won the 2m 4f race, can't remember name.
JLT - Bellshill
Ryanair - Un De Sceaux
Stayers - Shaneshill
Mares Novice - Airlie Beach
Triumph - Ricci horse that he rides on Sunday.
Albert - Augusta Kate
Gold Cup - Djakadam

Honourable mentions:

Let's Dance - Unsure where she goes, Neptune my guess as she seems to enjoy being ridden positively.
American Tom - May slot into the JLT and leave Bellshill for the RSA but I think he would need another run before Cheltenham

Discuss...........

Supreme - Melon correct
Arkle - Royal Caviar correct
Champion Hurdle - Yorkhill false - VVM see below
Mares - Vroum Vroum Mag false - Limini, when she absolutely slams Apples Jade and goes odds on.
Neptune - Saturnas false Let's Dance after the Deloitte flop
RSA - I can only offer Bellshill or Childrens List?!
Champion Chase - Douvan correct

JLT - Bellshill false - Yorkhill
Ryanair - Un De Sceaux correct
Stayers - Shaneshill correct
Mares Novice - Airlie Beach correct
Triumph - Ricci horse that he rides on Sunday. correct Bapaume
Albert - Augusta Kate Correct .... or Bacardys, but I dunno where Augusta would ride and because of connections I think he'll wanna ride
Gold Cup - Djakadam correct

Honourable mentions:


Discuss...........

I've had a go at editing what I think could happen. I think if he didn't ride VVM in the CH, it'd be Nichols Canyon. Don't want to believe Yorkhill is moving until it inevtiably gets declared tomorrow morning

Poll: Ruby's secondary banker (if any)?

This includes VVM/Mares even though the title of the poll says "without" (I forgot to delete this text before submitting).
