  • The Rooney's haven't got anything that can win at the festival so all this bleating is pathetic. They can go and take their horses to Ludlow for all I care. More to the point they've got a terrible strike rate at Cheltenham so I'd see that as the real reason. Good to see Trainers/Owners that have got the courage to race at THE FESTIVAL coming out in full support for Cheltenham.
    As for R.Jefferson........sigh.

    • Blue for Lalor today, was his form franked in any way during the days racing?

      Struggle to see how Cilaos Emery will even make it to the festival currently. Just over 2 months away and no entry for him still, cutting it a bit fine IMO.

      • Not sure COD but his price has been coming in ever since he went out to 9/1 after his defeat last time out. Just think there are still a good few punters who think his Cheltenham form is the best we’ve seen, in addition to there being no obvious world beater in this division

        • Lalor in great nick and looking forward to three weeks from today at Doncaster...just praying the ground comes right on the day.

          • Missy Tata makes her chase debut tomorrow after a while off the track for Elliott & Munir/Souede. Whilst it should be a fairly nice introduction for her I wonder if she can be good enough for a tilt here, she'll get the mares allowance as well.

            On her hurdles rating she'd be right in the mix with her mares allowance, and should she take to fences well she'll surely be aimed at this. Munir/Souede will surely want a representative in the Arkle in order to try and retain it.

              • I think Knockmanauss could be a lively outsider here in what looks an open race. Typical improver that jumps very well, runs today at Plumpton and i can see a big performance from the front

                • Hopefully Campaedor can put in another clear round this afternoon. If his jumping holds up he could be a lively outsider for this. He has the residual talent.

                  • Slate House looks a big price today getting lumps of weight.

                    I’ve always thought he had a future over these obstacles and Tizzard always thought a lot of him.

                    Would he want 2.5m though?

                    • Nice that from Articulum, can't imagine he's the Arkle winner but a fair horse.

                        A really good performance. Beat Campaedor easily and both jumped well. They have to aim him for the Irish Arkle after that.

                        Campaedor could be a Grand Annual horse.

                          could suit him that race, could see him winning or not getting out of it alive.

                            Campaedor seems to crumble when it is not easy for him.

                            • Campeador finds nothing. Couldn't back him for anything at Cheltenham.

                              • Not completely put off Knocknanuss after that, giving away 5lbs and as much as Master Dino was an easy winner he wasn’t chased all the way to the line.
